Resumo: This cross-sectional, descriptive study aimed at investigating social perception on street drugs and violence in a community in northwestern Paraná. A structured questionnaire was applied to 358 inhabitants, of whom 98.6% reported to perceive the presence of drugs in high intensity (82.4%), a situation considered as “alarming” for 56.1% and a cause of suffering for 61.5%. Seventy-eight interviewees (22.1%) reported that the presence of drugs caused changes in family life (22.1%), social life (29.5%), and in family behavior (24.9%). A total of 72.6% reported restrictions in their activities due to fear of violence. The main reason for drug use and distribution was related to the absence of policing (31.4%). Most people (90.2%) perceived the presence of violence; 93.8% related this presence to drug abuse. The presence of violence was mostly related to drug abuse, as a result of the absence of policing and drug traffic fighting in the community.

Pesquisa transversal, descritiva, utilizando questionário estruturado, aplicado a 358 moradores. Dos 358 entrevistados, 98,6% referiram que percebem a presença de drogas em elevada intensidade (82,4%), situação considerada “preocupante” para 56,1% e motivo de sofrimento para 61,5%. Setenta e oito entrevistados (22,1%) informaram que a presença de drogas causou alteração em sua vida familiar (22,1%) e social (29,5%) e no comportamento familiar (24,9%), e 72,6% apontaram restrições em suas atividades pelo medo de sofrer violências. O principal motivo da circulação e consumo de drogas foi relacionado à ausência de policiamento (31,4%). A maioria (90.2%) percebe a presença de violência e destes 93,8% a relacionaram com o uso de drogas. A presença de violência foi majoritariamente relacionada ao uso de drogas, e ocorre devido à ausência de policiamento e combate ao tráfico na comunidade.Faculdade de Enfermagem da UFG2015-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/2866310.5216/ree.v17i3.28663Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; Vol. 17 No. 3 (2015); 28663Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; v. 17 n. 3 (2015); 286631518-1944reponame:Revista Eletrônica de Enfermageminstname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporenghttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/28663/20766https://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/28663/20767https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessReis, Lúcia Margarete dosOliveira, Magda Lúcia Félix de2022-09-29T17:35:39Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/28663Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/fenPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/oairee.fen@ufg.br1518-19441518-1944opendoar:2022-09-29T17:35:39Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)false
