Further mothers were shown to be the people closest the children in their families.Survey results revealed that mothers from higher socioeconomic backgrounds were more knowledgeableregarding substance addiction. A cluster analysis showed that mothers with less education and lower incomelevels had lower perceptions about substance addiction risk for school environments neighborhoods andthe city while mothers with more education and higher income levels had higher levels of such perceptions.Considering the results of our study mothers were chosen as the main target for the public communicationcampaign.
