Question by I wish I had stayed..: substance abuse survey?
hi! im trying to figure out if there is a substance abuse problem in my school through a survey, but i cant think questions (need about 5 more..)

our hypothesis: We think there is a substance abuse problem at FHCI that affects gender differently. We feel that boys are more likley to develop this type of problem because of peer pressure, while girls would be more influenced by emotional factors.

can you please help me think of some questions that i can put in our survey that would determine this? Thank you!
