Detectando consumo de drogas en adolescentes mediante un programa de simulación 3DABSTRACT: This work presents a new 3d simulation program, called Mii School, and its application to the detection of problem behaviours appearing in school settings. We begin by describing some of the main features of the Mii School program. Then, we present the results of a study in which adolescents responded to Mii School simulations involving the consumption of alcoholic drinks, cigarettes, cannabis, cocaine, and MdMA (ecstasy). We established a "risk profile" based on the observed response patterns. We also present results concerning user satisfaction with the program and the extent to which users felt that the simulated scenes were realistic. Lastly, we discuss the usefulness of Mii School as a tool for assessing drug use in school settings.

“…1) The 16 scenes are divided as follows: 6 scenes involve drug use where the participant's friends offer him some substances (tobacco, alcoholic drinks, cannabis, cocaine, and 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine [MDMA] or ecstasy), 4 involve bullying where the participant acts as a victim, bully, or witness of aggressive behaviors depending on the scene, 3 involve interactions with parents in their home, 2 involve interactions with classmates in the schoolyard during the recess and inside the class, and a final scene involves questions about beliefs and attitudes relating to school violence and drug use in different contexts (see Appendix). A more detailed description of MS may be found in Carmona, Espí-nola et al 13,14 (Fig. 2).…”

The current study analyzes the psychometric properties of an innovative three-dimensional (3D) simulation program, entitled Mii-School (MS), designed for the early detection of drug use and bullying in Secondary School children. This computer program showed adequate reliability and construct validity. The factorial structure, as well as the explanatory weight of the different factors, is presented. In addition, the results of a parallel version in paper and pencil format are also presented and compared with those of the computerized version (i.e., MS). There was a statistically significant difference between the two formats in the total (i.e., combined) sore of risk. When drug use and bullying were separately analyzed, differences were found only with regard to drug use. The relevance of these results as well as the suitability of this type of 3D instrument for the early detection of risky behaviors in young people are discussed.

“…Para ello, el programa MS consta de un total de 17 escenas de simulación, las cuales recrean, mediante la utilización de gráficos tridimensionales (al estilo de los actuales videojuegos), diferentes situaciones de consumo de sustancias y acoso escolar con personajes que interactúan entre sí en situaciones conflictivas y ante las cuales el participante ha de elegir cómo comportarse, dadas las diferentes opciones de respuesta que se le ofrecen. Para una descripción detallada del programa, el lector puede remitirse a Carmona et al (2010aCarmona et al ( , 2010bCarmona et al ( , 2011.…”

El presente escrito está dirigido al análisis de las propiedades psicométricas del programa de simulación 3D My-School (MS), el cual fue diseñado para detectar alumnos en riesgo de consumo de drogas y acoso escolar. En concreto, se han llevado a cabo dos estudios empíricos encaminados a evaluar, por un lado, la validez de contenido de las escenas, y por otro la validez de criterio (predictiva) del programa informático. Si atendemos a la evaluación de la validez de contenido, los resultados mostraron la existencia de un acuerdo sustancial entre el total de jueces expertos con respecto a la relevancia, coherencia, claridad y poca tendenciosidad de las situaciones. Con respecto a la validez de criterio, no existieron diferencias entre las respuestas dadas en el programa y las entrevistas, el programa informático MS habría mostrado poseer adecuadas propiedades de validez para detectar alumnos en riesgo de consumo de sustancias y acoso escolar.
