Abstract

There are three big public health problems, the negative consequences of which have an impact on adolescents, i.e. smoking, drinking, and drug-taking. Experts have recently joined school boards for the prevention of smoking, whose task is to monitor the incidence of smoking in schools. As smoking is often linked to other kinds of hazardous behavior of adolescents, the simultaneous collection of data on other types of hazardous behavior is justified.
