  • Problemas por uso de alcohol en estudiantes secundarios y universitarios Karina Conde Romina Antonela Brandariz Mariana Cremonte Medicina 92 92 Alcohol Alcohol students The aim of this study was to characterize the presence of alcohol-related problems in high school and university students of Mar del Plata, Argentina. We estimated the frequency by age, the probability of each problem, and the proportion of help seeking for alcohol-related problems. Method: We obtained probabilistic samples from two high schools (n = 305, 52% male) and the National University of Mar del Plata (n = 1427, 41% male) between the months of April- November of 2014. We estimated alcohol-related problems with the AUDIT-P questionnaire, and help seeking with a simple dichotomous question. Results: In both groups, we found high rates of alcohol-related problems, including neglect of activities, feelings of guilt and remorse, and blackouts. Although university students in some cases doubled high school students in the proportion of alcohol-related problems, the proportion help seeking was 2%. Conclusions: The impact of these findings in prevention and treatment of alcohol-related problems is discussed. 2016 artículo científico 0034-7388 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=331546792002 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3315 Revista Chilena de Neuropsiquiatría application/pdf Sociedad de Neurología, Psiquiatría y Neurocirugía de Chile Revista Chilena de Neuropsiquiatría (Chile) Num.2 Vol.54
