Abstract

In order to investigate the causes of drug abusing and dependence on it among war injured, the Sample of 380 war injured with various kinds of injuries and levels were selected by random stratified method and asked via the questionnaire which contained 39 questions. This questioner evaluated 5 areas of individual, social, economic, educational-cultural, Familial and legal causes. To assess the causes, chi-square test and sign test were used. Findings show that individual, economic and educational-cultural causes in comparison with social, familial and legal facts have more vital roles in misusing and dependence on drugs among war injured. Moreover, results emphasize on preventive measures in order to avoid further misusing and dependence on drugs among war injured.
