Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Nursing and health Science - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Substance abuse among adolescents is a significant health concern. Disturbed bonding between adolescents and parents and various motives of substance abuse are cited as strong correlates of adolescents' substance abuse problems. Aim: the study aimed to explore parental bonding and substance abuse motives among adolescents with substance abuse. Methods: 300 adolescents who have substance abuse were recruited from out- patient clinic of addiction at Psychiatry and Addiction Prevention Hospital – Cairo University Hospital. Participants completed socio demographic and substance abuse data sheet, Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI) and drug abuse motives questionnaire. Results: majority of participants started substance abuse because of peer pressure, perceived parental bonding as affectionate constraint while none of participants perceived optimal parenting. Furthermore, majority of participants reported moderate levels of motives to abuse substances. Moreover, no statistically significant correlation between parental bonding and motives of substance abuse was found. Conclusions: The study concluded that motives of substance abuse during adolescence were not mediated by parental bonding. Recommendations: based on the results, it is recommended to develop parental education programs regarding the role of parental bonding in substance abuse prevention and to develop a culturally sensitive instrument to assess parental bonding and motives of substance abuse in Egypt.
