Abstract

Objectives: To determine the influence of perceived social support and resilience in the use of alcohol and other drugs amongst female inmates.

Material and method: A cross-sectional study with 174 inmates was conducted in two prisons in the Region of Murcia. A self-administered questionnaire was used, which included socio-demographic, prison, alcohol and other drug consumption, perceived social support and resilience variables.

Results: 28.2% of the inmates consumed at least one of the substances analyzed (alcohol, cannabis, cocaine, heroin and/or tranquillizers without medical prescription) in prison. The female consumers showed significantly lower levels of perceived social support and resilience, compared to the counterparts who did not consume in prison.

Discussion: Findings show how perceived social support and resilience are factors of protection against substance use in prison, and these can be incorporated in future prevention programs for the consumption of alcohol and other drugs during imprisonment.

监狱囚犯的感知社会支持、复原力和精神活性物质消费。

目的:确定感知到的社会支持和适应能力对女性囚犯使用酒精和其他药物的影响。材料与方法:对穆尔西亚地区两所监狱的174名囚犯进行了横断面研究。使用了一份自我填写的问卷，其中包括社会人口统计、监狱、酒精和其他药物消费、感知到的社会支持和复原力等变量。结果:28.2%的囚犯在监狱中至少使用一种所分析的物质(酒精、大麻、可卡因、海洛因和/或无医生处方的镇静剂)。与没有在监狱消费的人相比，女性消费者表现出明显较低的感知社会支持和弹性水平。讨论:调查结果表明，感知到的社会支持和复原力如何成为防止在监狱中使用药物的因素，这些因素可以纳入未来监禁期间酒精和其他药物消费的预防方案。
