The Prevalence Of Drug Abuse And Its Relationship To Academic Motivation Among Secondary School Students In Lagos Metropolis

ABSTRACT

The literature shows that many studies on the problem of drug abuse have not only been carried out among Nigerian Secondary school students but also among undergraduates in Nigerian Universities. Uen studies, however, focussed mainly on the magnitude or the epidemiological nature of the problem and paid little attention to the relationship between drug abuse and students learning. The present study investigated the prevalence of drug abuse and its relationship to academic motivation among secondary school students. Two hundred and five (N=205) adolescent students comprising one hundred and thirteen boys and ninety, two girls in forms four land five from three randomly in selected secondary schools within the metropolitan city of Lagos acted as subjects.
