Abstract

Substance dependence is an important social problem in many countries. Teen users are at significantly higher risk of devel95oping an addictive disorder compared to adults, and the earlier they began using, the higher their risk. Adolescent substance use and abuse includes a wide range of substances, such as alcohol, marijuana, nicotine, cocaine, heroin and others. The potential for developing substance abuse and dependence is substantially greater when an individual’s first exposure to alcohol, nicotine and illicit drugs occurs during adolescence than in adulthood. Substance use disorder in Cairo is about 7%. About 19.4% began using addictive substance before age 15, and about 29.3% began using addictive substance before age 16-19 years old.
The present study was carried out in the adolescent psychiatry out-patient clinic in Helwan Mental Health Hospital and psychiatric clinic in Menoyfia university hospital. The sample size was determined to be 60 patient with substance dependence as diagnosed by psychiatric sheet and urine screen for drug abuse (30 adolescents with substance dependence without conduct disorder and 30 adolescents with substance dependence with conduct disorder) and 60 normal adolescents (without substance dependence or Conduct disorder). They were males with age ranging from (12-18) years. The patients were recruited from April 2014 to March 2016.
They were classified into the following groups.
A) Patient groups:
The patients divided into 2 groups: group a: Consists of 30 adolescents with substance dependence without conduct disorder.
* group b: Consists of 30 adolescents with substance dependence with co-morbid conduct disorder.
Both groups will be compared regarding their severity of conduct disorder, parenting style and severity of addiction.
(B) Control group:
*group c: Consists of 60 normal adolescents (without substance dependence or Conduct disorder).
Both cases and controls will be subjected to:
1) Written consent.
2) Psychiatric sheet.
3) The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for children and adolescent (MINI-KID) (Sheehan et al., 1990; Ghanem et al., 1999).
4) The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Adolescents (WISC).
5) Revised Behavior Problem Checklist (Quay & Peterson, 1987).
6) Parenting Manners Scale (Abd el Maksood, 1995).
7) Teen Addiction Severity Index (T-ASI) (Kaminer et al., 1991).
8) Urine screen for drug dependence.
