Abstract	The study was conducted on a sample of 183 drug users undergoing treatment and rehabilitation in Government Rehabilitation Centres ( West Malaysia), and 200 non-drug users studying in Universiti Pertanian Malaysia, Serdang, Selangor. The purpose of the study was to identify some social factors related to the development of initial drug use behaviour among adolescents.. The variable, "association with peers using drugs", was significantly related to initial drug use behaviour. This stresses the importance of providing intervention programs at the individual and environmental levels to prevent adolescents from experimenting with drugs. ABSTRAK Kajian dijalankan ke atas sampel 183 pengguna dadah yang sedang menjalani proses rawatan dan pemulihan di Pusat-pusat Pemulihan Dadah Kerajaan (Malaysia Barat) dan 200 bukan pengguna dadah yang sedang menuntut di Universiti Pertanian Malaysia, Serdang, Selangor. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti beberapa faktor sosial yang berkaitan dengan pembentukan tingkah laku permulaan penggunaan dadah di kalangan remaja. Angkubah "memiliki rakan-rakan sebaya yang menggunakan dadah" terbukti mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan tingkah laku permulaan penggunaan dadah. Hasil kajian memberikan implikasi tentang perlunya dilaksanakan program-program intervensi di peringkat individu dan sekitaran untuk menghindarkan para remaja daripada mencuba dadah.
