Study: Working‐aged men with low employment and education have higher odds of SUDs

A new study on substance use patterns has focused on a new category: working‐aged men who are not in employment, education, or training. This group, which researchers from Stanford have dubbed “NEET,” has shown that more than 1 in 10 men were NEET in 2022, and that this group had higher odds of past‐year substance use disorders (SUDs), except for having lower odds of alcohol use disorder.
