The paper aimed to study the motivational factors in the formation of youth drug addiction and develop practical recommendations to counteract the spread of drug addiction among young people. To achieve this aim, in 2021–2023, we conducted the questionnaire survey and psychodiagnostic examination among two groups of respondents who sought help at the City Addiction Clinical Hospital “Sociotherapy” in Kyiv. The first group consisted of adolescent drug addicts aged 18–23 years (n=52). The second group consisted of young people aged 24–29 years (n=46) who agreed to participate in the research. Research methods: bibliosemantic, questionnaire survey, comparative, psychological and diagnostic, method of system analysis and generalization, mathematical and statistical. The priority motivational orientations of drug addiction among modern youth have been identified. It has been found that drug-addicted adolescents (18–23 years old) and older young people (24–29 years old) have almost similar indicators of motivation, which designates similar determinants of drug addiction in young people. The motivational orientations of drug addiction among modern youth are primarily pseudo-cultural motives; search for a source of positive emotions and new sensations; hedonistic motives; drug use as a result of getting rid of boredom, apathy, and “emptiness”. Practical recommendations have been developed to counteract the spread of drug addiction among young people. |
