Familial correlates such as parental stability and past family medical history of respondents reporting recent illicit and licit unprescribed drug use or 'problematic' drinking, in a nationwide general population sample in Greece, were explored. The type of survey was cross-sectional and the respondents, aged 12-64, were interviewed in their homes with a multidimensional structured questionnaire. Familial pathology was recorded by the Family Medical History Index, an originally developed instrument. An association between familial instability and illicit or unprescribed drug use was observed. Higher levels of familial pathology expressed in the form of prevalence of mental or somatic illness, excessive tobacco smoking, alcohol and drug use was found to be related with higher rates of illicit or unprescribed drug use and 'problematic' drinking among the probands. These results are discussed within the context of the limitations of the study and the usefulness of obtaining information on the family atmosphere of drug users.
在希腊全国范围的普通人群样本中，对报告近期使用非法和合法非处方药物或“问题性”饮酒的受访者的家庭相关因素进行了探索，这些因素包括父母关系稳定情况和过去的家族病史。调查类型为横断面调查，对年龄在12至64岁之间的受访者在其家中使用多维结构化问卷进行访谈。家族病理情况通过最初开发的家族病史指数进行记录。观察到家族不稳定与非法或非处方药物使用之间存在关联。发现以精神或躯体疾病患病率、过度吸烟、酗酒和吸毒等形式表现出的较高家族病理水平与先证者中较高的非法或非处方药物使用率以及“问题性”饮酒率相关。在研究局限性以及获取吸毒者家庭氛围信息的有用性的背景下对这些结果进行了讨论。
