Abstract

PEREIRA, Maria da Graça  and  MOREIRA, Paulo. Prevenção primária das toxicodependências: avaliação de uma intervenção de grupo em crianças com idades entre os 8 e 9 anos. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 2000, vol.18, n.4, pp.455-463. ISSN 0870-8231.

The main purpose of the study was the evaluation of the efficacy of a primary prevention addiction program "Growing up Playing" with children in basic school. A number of studies have demonstrated the efficacy of the multimodal models in primary prevention programs. This study employed a socio-affective model (Negreiros de Carvalho, 1991). A sample of 109 children participated. A Pré-Post test design with control group was employed. The measures used included the CABS (Michelson & Mood, 1982) that measures communication style, the CDI (Kovacs, 1985) that measures depression, the SPPC (Harter, 1985) for self-concept and a new instrument "Eager to Live" (cartoons) created for the purpose of the study that assessed peers pressure, decision making and assertive style. Results and research implications are presented and discussed.

Keywords : Health promotion; drugs prevention; basic school´s intervention.
