Substance use and behaviour : the role of gender / prepared by S.M. Biro & S. Farrell MacDonald.: PS82-4/15-1E-PDF

"Men and women offenders differ in their substance use patterns, but, for both genders, substance use is associated with institutional behaviour and post-release outcomes. There is emerging evidence that the relationship between substance use and these outcomes is stronger for women than for men; this study aimed to examine this possibility among Canadian federally-sentenced offenders"--Why we did this study, p. [1].
