Abstract

Alcohol use is seen as a factor that destabilizes the social structure. The main purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing the degrading of drug use and to provide a blueprint for the implementation of potential factors at the international level. This survey has been carried out as a quantitative study. Questionnaires and interviews are included as primary data. All data obtained were analysed by SPSS and the results have been obtained from it. Factors influencing the depravity of alcoholism include the legal closure of liquor stores, the enforcement of systematic legal action, the continuation of the best outreach to all departments, the proper administration of the town, and the provision of medical and psychiatric treatment. Among them, the implementation of formal legal action on the factors that discredit the use of alcohol increases by 1%, while the use of alcohol can be degraded by 1.746% and this is the most influential factor, according to the study. Similarly, when looking at the results, none of the factors that can influence the degrading of alcoholism shows a negative value. Therefore, as the study results show that all the factors that have been presented as factors influencing the depravity of alcoholism are in positive values, in can be concluded that they all can be the factors which influences the degrading of alcohol use.
