Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Un certain nombre de facteurs sont communs à l'usage des trois substances : influence des pairs, mauvaise santé mentale, sentiment religieux, supervision des parents, sentiment de détresse. Toutefois, alcoolisme et tabagisme sont plus répandus chez les étudiants de sexe masculin en difficultés scolaires. Il y a également une relation significative entre l'usage de cannabis et un contexte familial polygame plus âgé.
ENGLISH :
The possible correlates of alcohol, tobacco and cannabis use were investigated in a survey conducted among undergaduate students of the University of Ilorin, Nigeria. Factors that emerged as common correlates to the three substances investigated were peer influence, self-reported poor mental health, religiousity, parental/guardian supervision, perceived availability and perceived harmfulness. In addition, drinking and smoking were found to be commoner among the male sex and among respondents who reported study difficulty. There was also a significant positive relationship between cannabis use and a polygamous family background and belonging to and older age group. Although the data used in the analysis is limited due to its cross-sectional nature, the observations made are useful enough for the formulation of primary prevention strategies.
