Figure EYE-2. Lifetime prevalence for drugs other than cannabis among school students [see all figures in this series...]

Part (iii) Lifetime prevalence of ecstacy use and perceived great risk among 15/16 year olds school (%), 2007

Notes:

Spain did not participate in the ESPAD survey. The data included here is based on a Spanish survey conducted in 2006/2007. Drug prevalence questions may be considered comparable to the ESPAD questions but other aspects of the method mean that the Spanish data is not strictly comparable. Belgium data is based on Flanders only. German data is based on seven regions only (Bavaria, Brandenburg, Berlin, Hesse, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saarland and Thuringia). ESPAD 2007 data for Denmark limited comparability.

Prevalence of LTP for use of ecstasy is probably too low to show an association with perceived risk

Perceived great risk is defined as those answering that they think there is a great risk of people risk harming themselves (physically or in other ways) if they: a) try ecstasy once or twice b) take ecstasy regularly
