Attitudes of soldiers taking drugs to military service, training, and discipline

Abstract

The studies performed confirmed the existence of effects of drug addiction on the processes of discipline and training of soldiers. Soldiers taking drugs have more critical attitudes toward military service obligation and to a greater degree accept the opinion that it is a waste of time for them. Soldiers taking drugs have worse results in general and professional military training. Copyright © by Association of Military Surgeons of U.S., 2005.
