dc.description.abstractObjectiveThe aim of this study is to evaluate probationers' addiction levels and associated socioeconomic and psychological features in Izmir Probation Directorate.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted in Izmir Probation Directorate between August 27, 2018 and November 27, 2018. The study's dependent variable was adult probationers' addiction level which was evaluated by the Addiction Profile Index-Clinical Version (API-C). The independent variables were individual factors, social environmental factors, API-C scale subdimensions and perceived social support. For paired comparisons, Student's t test and ANOVA were used. Linear regression analysis was used for multiple comparisons. p < 0.05 was accepted as the limit of statistical significance.ResultsA total of 200 male probationers participated in the study (82.3%, n = 243). The participants' average age was 29.9 +/- 7.7. The participants' average addiction score was 5.65 +/- 2.33. According to the results of the regression analysis; education level (B = 1.438, 95% CI 0.936, 1.941, p < 0.001) working status at a job (B = 2.687, 95% CI 1.428, 3.945, p < 0.001) father's education level (B=-1.117, 95% CI -1.473, -0.762, p < 0.001) and anger management problems (B = 0.750, 95%CI 0.517, 0.982, p < 0.001) were explanatory for addiction level. The model was 50.8% explanatory of addiction level (p < 0.05).ConclusionProbationers who grew up with only their mother, whose father had a low education level, who had higher levels of anger management problems and who were unemployed had higher levels of addiction. These results emphasize the need for social work in the rehabilitation processes of individuals. Treating the risk factors indicated by the study results as screening and follow-up parameters in the probation population can be useful in improving the success of the probation program.en_US
