To investigate the correlation between disorders related to the use of alcohol and other drugs and symptoms of mental disorders, problems related to crime and violence and to age and gender.
Cross-sectional descriptive study carried out with 128 users of a Psychosocial Care Center for Alcohol and other Drugs, in the city of São Paulo, interviewed by means of the instrument entitled Global Appraisal of Individual Needs - Short Screener. Univariate and multiple linear regression models were used to verify the correlation between the variables.
Using univariate regression models, internalizing and externalizing symptoms and problems related to crime/violence proved significant and were included in the multiple model, in which only the internalizing symptoms and problems related to crime and violence remained significant.
There is a correlation between the severity of problems related to alcohol use and severity of mental health symptoms and crime and violence in the study sample. The results emphasize the need for an interdisciplinary and intersectional character of attention to users of alcohol and other drugs, since they live in a socially vulnerable environment.
探讨与酒精及其他药物使用相关的障碍与精神障碍症状、犯罪和暴力相关问题以及年龄和性别之间的相关性。
对圣保罗市一家酒精及其他药物心理社会护理中心的128名使用者进行横断面描述性研究，通过名为“个体需求综合评估 - 简短筛查工具”的仪器进行访谈。使用单变量和多元线性回归模型来验证变量之间的相关性。
使用单变量回归模型时，内化和外化症状以及与犯罪/暴力相关的问题被证明具有显著性，并被纳入多元模型，其中只有内化症状以及与犯罪和暴力相关的问题仍然具有显著性。
在研究样本中，与酒精使用相关的问题严重程度与心理健康症状严重程度以及犯罪和暴力之间存在相关性。结果强调了对酒精及其他药物使用者的关注需要具有跨学科和交叉性，因为他们生活在社会弱势群体环境中。
