In the adolescence, the use of drugs has been happening at an earlier age and with harder drugs. Researches have tried to identify both risk and protection factors. Adolescents with or without diagnoses of chemical dependence had the perception of parental educative practices investigated in this study. There were 48 participants of both sexes, age variation from 14 to 19. They were divided in two groups: 1) 24 adolescents with diagnoses of dependence, 2) 24 adolescents without diagnosis. Both groups were paired according to gender, age and social-economic status. Two instruments were applied: The Questionnaire of Risk Factors for Chemical Dependence and The Parents' Report. In the statistical analysis were used Chi-Square and the Mann-Whitney tests. Results have shown significant difference between the perceptions of both groups, while practices more indicated socially were associated to adolescents without diagnoses, practices less indicated socially were associated to those with diagnoses.
