Abstract
Background: The common quantitative researches analysing the drug use at dance events (e. g. survey Tanec a drogy) do not provide information of the drug use at free-parties. Aims: The goal of this paper is to create the comprehensive survey of the drug use at free-parties supported by the results of a questionnaire.
Design and Measurements: The questionnaire was distributed directly at the free-parties and the gathered data were analysed using the standard mathematical statistics techniques. Participants: The sample consists of 127 non-randomly selected respondents (based on availability) collected at four free-parties in the period from April to August 2012.
Results: Alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana were taken by at least 70 % of the respondents during the last year. Followed by hallucinogens (63 %), stimulants, ecstasy, Upraveno GHB and synthetic piperazine (59 %), poppers (~ 12 %), and opiates (~ 9 %).
Conclusions: The prevalence values of our survey are in many cases higher than the values of the survey Tanec a drogy 2007, for example the annual prevalence of LSD (53 % vs. 21 %) and magic mushrooms (48 % vs. 20 %).
