Resumen

Este trabajo pretende investigar la relación existente entre el empleo del tiempo libre y el consumo de drogas legales. Mediante un cuestionario aplicado a 277 escolares de 7°. de EGB, se obtuvieron datos acerca de la forma en que emplean su tiempo libre y distintas variables asociadas al consumo de alcohol y tabaco, encontrándose que un patrón «productivo» de empleo del tiempo de ocio se asocia a menores consumos de estas sustancias, mientras que el uso «no productivo» del tiempo libre parece ser un factor de riesgo para el consumo de drogas, obteniéndose algunas conclusiones de utilidad para el diseño de programas de prevención.

Abstract

This work was aimed at studying the relationship between the use of leisure time and legal drug consumption. By giving a questionnaire to 272 students of seventh grade, information regarding the use of leisure time and the different variables associated with alcohol and tobacco consumption was obtained. We found that a «productive» pattern of use of leisure time is associated with a minor consumption of these substances, while a «non productive» use of leisure time seems to be a risk factor leading to the consumption of drugs. These findings may be of use in the design of prevention programs.
