The method was a qualitative literature and case study based on the latest research and interviews with school personnel. The conclusion of my thesis was that a strategy for a good psychosocial school environment was crucial for drug prevention.

At the examined field I found an awareness of the importance of relations, but it was not formulated as an objective and consequently there was no general strategy. (Less)
