Araştırma verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından oluşturulan anket formu ve Genel Sağlık Anketi-28 (GHQ-28) ile toplanmıştır. Beş ve daha fazla puan GHQ-28’de ruh sağlığına ilişkin riski göstermektedir. İstatistiksel analizlerde frekans dağılımı, ortalama, t testi, Kruskall Wallis ve Mann Whitney U testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Gençlerin %61.4’ü sigara içtiğini, %16.9’u alkol tükettiğini, %4.8’i tiner ve %3.7’si ekstazi kullandığını belirtti. Gençlerin GSYÖ puan ortalamalarının 5.92±6.72 ve ruh sağlığı açısından %42.3’ünün riskli olduğu, kadınların ve herhangi bir madde kullananların GHQ puanlarının istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir (p<0.05). Sonuç: Çalışmada, mesleki eğitime devam eden çalışan gençlerde madde kullanımının toplumun ortalamasından daha fazla olduğu ve neredeyse yarısının ruh sağlığı açısından psikiyatri gerektirecek düzeyde risk taşıdığı görülmüştür.
