Resumo: Introduction: The consumption of tobacco, alcohol, and illicit drugs is a problem in adolescence, especially in the school context. This study aimed to identify the demographic and social variables that distinguished the students who had used tobacco, alcohol and/or other drugs at some point of their lives from those who had never used these substances.Methods: A school-based cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate students attending the ninth year of elementary education in the city of Caxias do Sul (n = 1,285).Results: Alcohol was the most consumed drug (74.9%). In all the three discriminant profiles, adolescents who used tobacco throughout their lives presented more family conflict and hierarchy, higher age, greater difficulty in talking to their mother, father, and siblings, and higher school failure rates. The group that reported lifetime use of alcohol showed similar characteristics, and also reported greater loneliness. The group that has used illicit drugs was characterized, as well as other factors, by meeting with friends outside school more often, not having a good friend, being lonely, and having difficulties in talking to their father.Conclusion: Several social and family-related aspects can act as factors that propitiate adolescents from drugs. Public policies in this regard are of fundamental importance.Keywords: Adolescents; use of drugs; family; discriminant analysis

O consumo de tabaco, álcool e drogas ilícitas é um grave problema na adolescência, sobretudo no contexto escolar. Este estudo objetivou identificar as variáveis demográficas e sociais, que discriminavam os escolares que haviam utilizado tabaco, álcool e/ou outras drogas na vida daqueles que nunca haviam usado.Métodos. Estudo com delineamento transversal de base escolar, que avaliou estudantes do nono ano do ensino fundamental, do ensino municipal da cidade de Caxias do Sul (n = 1285).Resultados. O álcool foi a droga mais consumida (74,9%). Nos três perfis discriminantes, os jovens que fizeram uso de tabaco na vida apresentaram mais conflito e hierarquia familiar, idade elevada, maior dificuldade para falar com mãe, pai e irmãos e maior número de repetências escolares. O grupo que já fez uso de álcool na vida, apresentou características semelhantes, porém com adição de solidão. Ademais, o grupo que já usou drogas ilícitas, foi caracterizado, além de outros fatores, por conviver mais frequentemente com amigos fora do da escola, não ter um bom amigo, apresentar solidão e ter dificuldades para falar com o pai.Conclusões. Diversos aspectos do universo social e familiar podem atuar como fatores que propiciam ou afastam os adolescentes das drogas. Políticas públicas, neste aspecto, são de fundamentais importâncias.Palavras-chave: Adolescentes; uso de drogas; família; análise discriminante.HCPA/FAMED/UFRGS2018-04-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/77810Clinical & Biomedical Research; Vol. 38 No. 1 (2018): Clinical and Biomedical ResearchClinical and Biomedical Research; v. 38 n. 1 (2018): Clinical and Biomedical Research2357-9730reponame:Clinical and Biomedical Researchinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSenghttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/article/view/77810/pdfCopyright (c) 2018 Jonas Wolf, Vagner Reinaldo Pereira, Lucas Wolf, Gláucia Zuleide Stumm, Gehysa Alves, Sheila Câmarainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPereira, Vagner Reinaldo Zingalli BuenoWolf, Jonas MichelWolf, LucasStumm, Gláucia ZuleideAlves, Gehysa GuimaraesCâmara, Sheila Gonçalves2024-01-19T14:23:13Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/77810Revistahttps://www.seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpaPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/hcpa/oai||cbr@hcpa.edu.br2357-97302357-9730opendoar:2024-01-19T14:23:13Clinical and Biomedical Research - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
