Description The aim of the research studies presented here was a description and analysis of potentially addictive behavior in a sample of full-time students at Masaryk University and its possible prevention. There were 3 anonymous questionnaire studies, first charted in a sample of 9993 respondents experience with addictive drugs of legal and illegal type, their opinions and attitudes. In the second study there were interviewed 2475 people on issues aimed at potentially hazardous activities, especially virtual drugs. The third investigation in a sample of 2176 people concerned primary prevention activities at the University, their efficiency, attractiveness, student involvement. The collected data were electronically recorded and subjected to statistical processing (descriptive statistics, chi-square test and its modifications, Fisher exact test). The results showed that the most commonly used addictive substances in the sample were alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, cannabis, to lesser extent also hallucinogens, depressants not requiring prescription and dancing drugs. Respondents normally work with a computer, internet and mobile phone, usually an hour a day. One fifth of the sample was addressed with addiction prevention, almost exclusively in the classroom. In primary prevention there are used mainly monologue lectures on the issue of alcohol and nicotine, which lack feedback, interactivity, adequate length, continuity and systematicity.
