MEJIA MARTINEZ, Amalia; ARMENDARIZ GARCIA, Nora Angélica; ALONSO CASTILLO, María Magdalena  e  OLIVA RODRIGUEZ, Nora Nelly. Quality of friendship and alcohol consumption in high school adolescents. Rev Cuid [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.3, pp.2369-2378. ISSN 2216-0973.  https://doi.org/10.15649/cuidarte.v9i3.551.

Introduction

In the adolescent population, the quality of friendship is associated with the development of protective behaviors, but little research has been done to determine whether the perception of the quality of friendship is a determinant in alcohol consumption or not. For this reason, the objectives of this study were to determine the overall, lapsic, current and instantaneous prevalence of alcohol consumption, to identify the differences in the quality of friendship by type of consumption, and to identify the relationship between the quality of friendship and alcohol consumption of high school adolescents in a public institution in the state of Nuevo León.

Materials and Methods

A correlational descriptive study was conducted; the total sample size was 308 high school adolescents with a stratified random sample with proportional allocation to stratum size. The Friendship Quality Scale and the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Questionnaire were used.

Results

Participants in this study were on average 15 years old. Significant differences were found between types of alcohol consumption and quality of friendship (H=7.06, p=.029); a negative and significant relationship was found between quality of friendship and alcohol consumption (rs = -.206, p<.01).

Discussion and Conclusions

Higher quality friend relationships were found to reflect lower alcohol consumption in high school adolescents.
