MORAL JIMENEZ, MARÍA DE LA VILLA  y  OVEJERO BERNAL, ANASTASIO. Improper Consumption of Alcohol in Spanish Teenagers: Emergent Trends and Perceptions of Risk. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2011, vol.10, n.1, pp.71-87. ISSN 1657-9267.

In the Mediterranean culture the young consumption of alcohol represents a practice associated with a recreative culture tied to processes of group interaction and identity. Our aim is to offer a descriptive and differential analysis for levels of age and ingestion realized of the trends of consumption of alcohol, as well as the perceptions of risk and motivations of consumption in a group of 845 Spanish teenagers of the Principado de Asturias. The emergent trends are confirmed on habits of consumption of alcohol and the representative bosses of use/abuse of the style of juvenile leisure, as well as motivations and differential perceptions of risk by virtue of the mentality of the user. There are advanced market lines of prevention based on psychosocial interventions and socio community.
