Drug Use and Users. Drug Use in Matched Groups of Hippies and Non Hippies. Final Report.
Holmes, Douglas; And Others
This study was designed to provide descriptive data on several samples of drug users and to compare these with non-drug users. The study focused on the characteristics of four groups: hippies, weekend hippies ("weekenders"), non-hippie drug users, and non-hippie non-users. Information was collected from study participants to provide descriptive data in the following areas: family backgrounds, their drug orientation and practices, attitudes and beliefs reflecting alienation, and their sexual orientation and practices.
