Abstract
ORCASITA, Linda Teresa; LARA, Valentina; SUAREZ, Alexandra and PALMA, Diana Marcela. Psychosocial Factors Associated With Alcohol Consumption Patterns among Adolescent Students. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2018, vol.35, n.1, pp.33-48. ISSN 0123-417X.
This article addresses psychosocial factors and alcohol consumption patterns in adolescent students. A total of 284 adolescents between 12 and 18, participated in the study. The instrument was built from the FPACA questionnaire, the RUMBOS questionnaire, FRP- SPA questionnaire, the questionnaire of alcohol consumption RPGCA, the questionnaire of family functioning APGAR and FACES. The main findings show a significant link between consumption and duration of school day, family functioning and grade. Therefore, it is important to strengthen family relationships and improve protective factors to prevent a harmful or dependent pattern of alcohol consumption in the population.
