Resumo: Problems related to the consumption of psychoactive substances affect not only the individual's socioeconomic context, but it also has an impact on sleep, aggressiveness and risk behaviors. The present study analyzed, on the one hand, the differences between individuals who are dependent on drugs and alcohol on the quality of sleep, aggressiveness and risk behaviors. And, on the other hand, it identified the independent contribution of sociodemographic variables to alcohol and drug consumption. The sample consisted of 115 drug and alcohol dependent individuals belonging to several institutions in the Northern region of Portugal. The results showed that drug addicts had a lower level of sleep quality, a higher prevalence of STIs and have done HIV tests, and their positive results were more frequent compared to those who depended on alcohol. The analysis of the results also showed that, in this sample, being female and having lower literacy levels were significant predictors of alcohol consumption, with drug use predicted by younger age and higher literacy. The results revealed the need to implement and evaluate intervention programs at the dependency level.

O presente estudo analisou, por um lado, as diferenças entre indivíduos dependentes de drogas e de álcool ao nível da qualidade do sono, da agressividade e de comportamentos de risco. E, por outro lado, identificou o contributo independente das variáveis sociodemográficas para o consumo de álcool e drogas. A amostra foi constituída por 115 indivíduos dependentes de drogas e de álcool pertencentes a várias instituições da região Norte de Portugal. Os resultados revelaram que os indivíduos toxicodependentes possuem um menor nível de qualidade de sono, uma maior prevalência de ISTS e realizaram mais o teste ao VIH, sendo o seu resultado positivo com maior frequência, em comparação com os dependentes de álcool. A análise dos resultados revelou ainda que, nesta amostra, pertencer ao sexo feminino e possuir habilitações literárias mais baixas constituíam preditores significativos do consumo de álcool, sendo o consumo de drogas predito pela idade mais jovem e pelas habilitações literárias superiores. Os resultados revelaram a necessidade de implementar e avaliar programas de intervenção ao nível das dependências.ISPA - Instituto Universitário2019-03-11info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1390https://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1390Análise Psicológica; Vol 37, No 1 (2019); 1-14Análise Psicológica; Vol 37, No 1 (2019); 1-141646-60200870-8231reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttp://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1390http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1390/pdfCopyright (c) 2019 Análise Psicológicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAntunes, AndreiaCosta, Eleonora C.
