| dc.description.abstract | Substance abuse is the use of a substance such that the substance use causes problems or greatly increases the chances of problem occurrence. The attempt of this study was to assess the prevalence of bars, shisha and khat houses and student-age adolescent substance use practice in three selected secondary schools located within Akaki Kality Sub city. Relevant data were collected by employing different data collection instruments. eg. counting, direct observations and interview. Around all the three selected schools there were 61, 139 and 6 khat shops, bars and shisha houses, respectively. A total of 741 khat, 670 alcohol and 19 shisha using student-age adolescents were recorded in this cross sectional study. The majority of the substance users were males with numbers of 717 vs 24 for khat; 614 vs 56 for alcohol; and 19 vs 0 for shisha in comparison with females. The number of substance use incidences increased as the distance from the school increases and it also varies as time changes. Frequency of substance use also varies between morning, midday and late afternoon periods of the day. | en_US |
