None of the Ukrainian student behaviours presented here is significantly more frequent than the ESPAD mean. The majority of the students (83%) had been drinking alcohol during the past 12 months and one third (32%) of them had been drunk during the same period, of which the latter rate is below average. The estimated volume of alcohol consumed on the latest drinking day (2.8 cl alc. 100%) is considerably below average. Almost a third (31%) had smoked cigarettes during the past 30 days. The lifetime prevalence of cannabis use (14%) is below the average for all ESPAD countries, and the same is true for drugs other than cannabis (4%). Very few (3%) of the Ukrainian students had used inhalants (this proportion is only one third of the ESPAD mean) and the use of pills in combination with alcohol (1%) is also considerably below average. The frequency of non-prescription use of tranquillisers or sedatives (4%), however, is fairly close to average. |
