Summary: | Social representations on the experience of young people with psychoactive substances are
described, as well as changes in the dominant tendencies on the risks associated with alcohol consumption
in the Mediterranean culture and other drugs, such as derivatives of cannabis or psycho stimulants. This
study proposes, as a preventive, psychosocial and socio-communitarian intervention strategy, to work on
the reflection of social representations and the dominant discourse on drugs in order to redimension the
consequences of the experience with psychoactive substances, to increase risk perceptions and to promote
changes in attitudes, with a view to a positive and healthy tendency at the global level. |
