Abstract
A two-week multimedia drug education program was evaluated by administering questionnaires to 650 junior high school students. Reported drug use was light, led by tobacco and alcohol. Questionnaire responses indicated that most students responded well to the program. Twenty five per cent of professed users claimed to have stopped using, and 50% of would-be users reported that they decided not to try drugs following the program.Keywords
