Résumé :
OBJECTIVE: to describe the prevalence of doping and its evolution among a cohort of preadolescent athletes during a four-year follow-up.
DESIGN: prospective cohort study.
SETTING: self-questionnaire survey. PARTICIPANTS: all of the pupils entering the first year of secondary school (sixth grade) in the Vosges department (east France) and followed for four years. Main outcome measurements: drug use (prohibited substances, tobacco, alcohol, cannabis), intention to use, reported health hazards, perceived drug efficiency, self-esteem, trait anxiety.
RESULTS: at the begining 1.2 % [95 % CI: 0.8-1.6] stated that they had taken doping agents at least once in the previous 6 months, and this percentage raised up to 3.0 % [2.3-3.7] four years later (p CONCLUSIONS: our results show that doping does exist among "daily preadolescent athletes". This fact should to be taken into account in prevention actions. (Author's abstract)
