In this research, between January 2012 and December 2022, four databases, Eric, Science Direct, Web of Science and Scopus, were searched for studies written in English and 7 studies were found to meet the necessary conditions for review. The findings show that the most frequently used substances by adolescents are cigarettes, alcohol, opium, nass, cannabis, and methamphetamine. Also, it was concluded that group intervention shave an effect on perceived parent involvement in adolescents, prevent and decrease adolescent substance use, resist peer pressure, help in being able to say no, and increaseparents’ relationship satisfaction with their adolescents. These findings suggest that school-based group interventions that involved adolescents and parents together are functional in preventing and reducing adolescent substance use. However, the fact that half of the risk of bias assessment is ambiguous suggests that research that integrates experimental studies with low risk of bias is needed.
