In 2014, took place the National Survey on Additives Behaviors in Prisons (Inquérito Nacional sobre Comportamentos Aditivos em Meio Prisional) following public tender (project budget: 119.960€). The project consisted of a large survey applied to a representative sample of inmates from all Portuguese prisons and aimed to assess inmates' practices and behaviours concerning health issues focusing especially on drug addiction, alcohol and gambling. The project took a gender analysis approach and was funded by the Addictive Behaviours and Dependencies Intervention Service (SICAD - Serviço de Intervenção nos Comportamentos Aditivos e nas Dependências) of the Portuguese Ministry of Health.
The research team included Anália Torres as its coordinator.
