ONE OF A SERIES OF DOCUMENTS REFLECTING THE RESULTS OF A RESURVEY OF IOWA RESIDENTS ORIGINALLY CONTACTED IN 1974 TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT OF DRUG USE AND EXISTING ATTITUDES AND KNOWLEDGE ABOUT DRUGS WITHIN THE STATE.

Abstract

THE RESURVEY WAS CONDUCTED TO ASSESS HOW THE USE OF DRUGS HAS CHANGED AND WHAT CURRENT ATTITUDES TOWARD DRUG ABUSE ARE, TWO YEARS AFTER THE ORIGINAL SURVEY. IN THIS STUDY OF THE CURRENT NATURE AND STRUCTURE OF A DRUG USING SUBCULTURE IN IOWA, DATA WERE COLLECTED FROM STREET INTERVIEWS WITH 307 DRUG USERS. APPENDIXES CONTAIN COPIES OF THE INTERVIEW GUIDE USED AND A LIST OF INTERVIEWERS. FOR THE RESULTS OF THE ENTIRE RESURVEY, SEE NCJ-35529 THROUGH NCJ-35333. FOR A SUMMARY OF THE ORIGINAL SURVEY, SEE NCJ-35334.
