- Abstract
Objective: to analyze the predictors of problems related to the consumption of psychoactive substances among users of a Psychosocial Care Center-Alcohol and Drugs. Method: a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach conducted with 200 users of a Psychosocial Care Center-Alcohol and Drugs from inland São Paulo. The data were collected by means of a sociodemographic questionnaire and through the instrument called Global Assessment of Individual Needs - Short Screener. A descriptive analysis and multiple regression of ordinary least squares were performed searching predictors for the variation in the scale score. Results: the users' profile showed 84% males with a mean age of 38.97 years old, white-skinned (85%), living with family members (43.5%) and with informal employment contracts (53%). The predictors corresponding to severity of the substance-related problems were internalization and externalization, crime and violence, schooling and use pattern. In relation to the total scale, the predictors were female gender, age, street situation and use pattern. Conclusion: the predictors analyzed pointed to biopsychosocial factors that should be considered in the care process for this population group. The results highlight the need for an interdisciplinary, interprofessional and intersectoral approach that can be guided by the Singular Therapeutic Project.
