| dc.description.abstract | South Africa is overwhelmed by the increase of substance abuse among adolescents. Having
consulted the literature, South Africa is not the only country faced with this problem. It raises
concerns with regard to the social health of adolescents in this country. In order to develop
effective intervention strategies to reduce the wide spread abuse of substances, it is important to
first understand how adolescents perceive this problem. In this study the perceptions of boys will
be explored with regard, to substance abuse among adolescents. | en_US |
