Abstract

Adolescence is an important period in human
development, a period which is often characterised by a high
risk of deviant behaviour. This reality can influence the life
and academic performance of adolescents in school. The
antisocial behaviour of high school students may often be a
consequence of the use of substances in general and (in the
Romanian context) of alcohol in particular. Given this
situation, the present article sets out to explore the preventive
role of moral-Christian education in regard to the alcoholrelated
antisocial behaviour among high school students. The
article is based on research which has been conducted in the
context of a confessional high school, through a quantitative
method and using the technique of the questionnaire. The
significance of the study also lies in the possibility of
identifying useful resources which moral-Christian education
can provide for the prevention of alcohol-related antisocial
behaviour. Furthermore, this research highlights the important
connection between the students’ academic performance and
the school climate in which they undergo their study.
