Scottish Schools Adolescent Lifestyle and Substance Use Survey (SALSUS): National Overview 2015

Provides an overview of findings from the Scottish Schools Adolescent Lifestyle and Substance Use Survey (SALSUS) 2015.


Multiple Substance Use

A large majority of pupils do not take any substances regularly, 80% of 15 year olds and 95% of 13 year olds.

A small proportion, however, do take all three substances (not simultaneous use) regularly, 2% of 15 year olds and less than 1% of 13 year olds.
