“…A study conducted in the United States has reported similar results and suggests that this is due to the social, economic, and role changes that women have achieved in recent years, which, in turn, may increase risk behaviors [29,30]. These results were seen to be reproduced in each of the academic courses, reinforcing the findings of a recent study showing that this trend begins in pre-university stages and continues later on in university academic life [31].…”

Background and objectives: Drug misuse among young people has become a major worldwide health concern. The present study analyzes substance misuse and its social and personal consequences in young university students. Materials and Methods: Screening of alcohol misuse was based on the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT), while screening of substance-related risks and problems was performed with the Car, Relax, Alone, Forget, Friends, Trouble (CRAFFT) score. Results: The population was composed of nursing students at the University of Valencia (Valencia, Spain) (n = 185). More than 50% of the surveyed students reported alcohol intake based on the CRAFFT scale; 31.4% were classified as having “risky alcohol use”, and 19.5% met the criterion for hazardous drinking based on the AUDIT score. In turn, 34.1% of the sample reported marijuana/hashish intake based on the CRAFFT scale. A gender effect was only observed for marijuana/hashish use, which was significantly (p < 0.001) higher in male students. No other gender differences were observed. In the logistic regression analysis, only age was identified as a protective factor for obtaining a reduced risk score with both the AUDIT and the CRAFFT. Among the social and personal consequences of drug misuse, the inability to “stop drinking once you have started” or the inability to “remember what happened while consuming” was significantly associated with an increased frequency of alcohol consumption (OR 20.93, p < 0.0001 and OR 13.68, p < 0.05, respectively). Conclusions: Our findings are consistent with emerging social concerns about drug misuse in the university population, including nursing students as future healthcare professionals.

“…El ambiente familiar, entonces, se plantea como el contexto en el que se posibilita esta normalización del consumo, consecuencia de la reiterada exposición a estas prácticas, las cuales, también eran frecuentes en las relaciones sociales extra familiares. Diferentes estudios cualitativos han expuesto la relación de las drogodependencias con las formas de organización de la vida cotidiana, así como los procesos de construcción de identidad (6)(7)(8)(9)(10). De este modo, no solo la familia, sino los espacios de socialización de pares resultan relevantes en este sentido.…”

“…En este sentido, las prácticas en las que ella incurre en relación al consumo son más riesgosas. En contraposición con lo que se ha encontrado en otros estudios donde la socialización diferencial, hace a las mujeres más cautas y menos arriesgadas en los consumos (19).…”

This text aims to analyze socio-cultural aspects in relation to the trajectory of habitual consumption of psychoactive substances of a young inmate. The young woman was in a detention center for minors in Medellin, Colombia, where interviews were conducted and participant observation was carried out. From there, the importance of aspects related to gender as a protective and risk elements was evident. Finally, this study presents some elements related to the detoxification process while she was following her sanction in internment.

“…De facto, ambos grupos refieren consumir cannabis simultáneamente con otras drogas legales en contextos recreativos y, al mismo tiempo, presentan tasas similares de consumo experimental de otras drogas ilegales (i.e., cocaína o éxtasis). Estos datos sugieren la equiparación de las ratios hombre-mujer en el consumo experimental y reciente de cualquier sustancia adictiva, destacando el mayor acceso a drogas ilegales y el aumento progresivo del consumo de drogas legales entre las mujeres (Fattore, Melis, Fadda y Fratta, 2014;Romo-Avilés, 2011), lo que podría apuntar a un fallo de las barreras de contención o factores protectores que tradicionalmente se asociaban a los roles femeninos, tal y como vienen mostrando las tendencias de los últimos años (OEDT, 2016).…”
