Sisällön kuvaus
The Alcohol and Drug Survey 2022 examines substance use among the Finnish population, attitudes towards substances, and opinions on drug policy. In addition, the survey explores the simultaneous use of alcohol and other substances as well as the use of doping substances.
At the beginning of the survey, respondents' use of tobacco and nicotine products was examined by asking, for example, about the regularity of use of tobacco and nicotine products and the strength of snus and nicotine pouches. Next, questions were asked about the prevalence of alcohol use and quantities consumed. This was followed by questions on respondents' views on drugs and other substances, for example by asking respondents to evaluate statements concerning various drug policy measures (e.g. What do you think about drug consumption rooms for people who use drugs?). In addition, the survey examined general opinions on drug legislation and respondents' perceived threat posed by drugs in society. Respondents' attitudes towards the punishability of acts related to drugs and substances were also explored. The survey also examined respondents' interest in trying different drugs if they were legal.
Next, the survey examined respondents' experiences of the visibility of drugs in Finland. Respondents were asked, for example, whether they know people who use drugs and whether they have been offered drugs. In addition, respondents were asked how easy they think it would be to obtain different illicit drugs. Respondents were also asked which illicit drugs they have used, at what ages and how often, and where they had obtained the substances. In addition, the survey examined the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on drug use and acquisition. The survey also examined problems caused by drug use. Furthermore, the survey covered the non-medical use of various medicines, the use of nitrous oxide and solvents, and polydrug use. Thereafter, respondents' use of doping substances was examined. Finally, respondents' health status and perceived health problems were asked.
Background variables in the data include, for example, the respondent's age, education, type of neighbourhood, family status, economic activity, marital status, gender, duration of unemployment, and minority status.

Otantamenetelmä
Probability: Systematic random
The sample was drawn as a simple random sample from Statistics Finland's population database covering the Finnish population. The sample was stratified by age into two groups (15-39-year-olds and 40-69-year-olds) and by area of residence into those living within the HSY water supply service area and those living outside it. The total sample size was 8,200 individuals, of whom 3,857 responded to the survey.
Data collection began with a web survey, which was available for the entire duration of the data collection period. At a later stage, respondents were also offered the option to respond using a paper questionnaire. In total, four mailings were sent during the autumn. The first two mailings consisted of cover letters describing the study and providing instructions and personal access codes for web-based participation. The third mailing included, in addition to the web access codes, a paper questionnaire and a return envelope. The fourth mailing was a cover letter with instructions for web-based response; it also referred to the possibility of responding using the paper questionnaire sent earlier. During the data collection period, respondents were also contacted via email reminders if an email address was recorded for them in the population information system.

Aineiston käytössä huomioitavaa
The brochures and cover letters differed slightly according to the respondent's age. The cover letters and brochures sent to young people aged 15-29 years are attached at the beginning of the questionnaires and are numbered as 2. Those sent to adults aged 30-69 are included in the questionnaires numbered as 1.
To prevent identification of respondents, the researcher have removed the year of birth variable and derived an age variable based on it.
Painokertoimet
Weighting variables were calculated for the data using a calibration method. At the initial stage of weighting, the country was divided according to the geographical division used in the study into the HSY area and the area outside the HSY area. Within these main strata, the weights were estimated separately. In the HSY area, weighting was based on the joint distribution of four age groups and gender (four age groups: 15-24, 25-39, 40-54, and 55-69) as well as the respondent's level of education, classified into five categories (i.e. education levels 7 and 8 were combined). For the rest of the country, in addition to the variables mentioned above, a statistical municipality classification (three categories) was used. The dataset includes two weight variables. The population weight is named "wcalr" and the analysis weight is named "w_analyysi". They are identical in their properties, but the latter is scaled to the sample level (i.e. mean=1 and sum equals the number of observations). In statistical analyses, the stratified sampling design should be taken into account in order to avoid an unnecessary increase in sampling variance. The stratification variable "osite" has four values: 1=HSY area, target person aged 15-39 years; 2=rest of the country, target person aged 15-39 years; 3=HSY area, target person aged 40-69 years; and 4=rest of the country, target person aged 40-69 years.
