Abstract

This report presents detailed results from the 2013 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), an annual survey sponsored by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The survey is the primary source of information on the use of illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco in the civilian, noninstitutionalized population of the United States aged 12 years old or older. Approximately 67,500 persons are interviewed in NSDUH each year. Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons in this report that are described using terms such as "increased," "decreased," or "more than" are statistically significant at the .05 level. Illicit Drug Use• In 2013, an estimated 24.6 million Americans aged 12 or older were current (past month) illicit drug users, meaning they had used an illicit drug during the month prior to the survey interview. This estimate represents 9.4 percent of the population aged 12 or older. Illicit drugs include marijuana/hashish, cocaine (including crack), heroin, hallucinogens, inhalants, or prescription-type psychotherapeutics (pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives) used nonmedically.• The rate of current illicit drug use among persons aged 12 or older in 2013 (9.4 percent) was similar to the rates in 2010 (8.9 percent) and 2012 (9.2 percent), but it was higher than the rates in 2002 to 2009 and in 2011 (ranging from 7.9 to 8.7 percent).• Marijuana was the most commonly used illicit drug in 2013. There were 19.8 million past month users in 2013 (7.5 percent of those aged 12 or older), which was similar to the number and rate in 2012 (18.9 million or 7.3 percent). The 2013 rate was higher than the rates in 2002 to 2011 (ranging from 5.8 to 7.0 percent). Marijuana was used by 80.6 percent of current illicit drug users in 2013.

Applied Cultural-Historical Psychology in Front of Current Challenges

“…Многие новые психические явления непосредственно связаны с внедрением в общество новых технологий, которые, в свою очередь, непрерывно развиваются (Зинченко и др., 2010;Смыслова, Войскунский, 2019;Andersson, 2016 и др.). Сегодня общеизвестен целый ряд психопатологических следствий быстрого развития новых информационных технологий (Емелин, Тхостов, 2013;Тхостов, Сурнов, 2005;Optican, Cavazos-Rehg, 2019;Meersand, 2017 и др.). Эти явления исследуются, предметизируются, далее разрабатываются.…”
