RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Determining the prevalence and psychosocial factors associated with public university students' legal and illegal substance consumption. METHOD: This was across-sectional study of 1,359 randomly selected students. The harvesting instrument included the CAGE questionnaire and VESPA,WHO, Rosenberg, Francis and APGAR scales. The Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used for univariate and bivariate analysis using disparity ratios (95 % confidence intervals and 5 % error) whilst logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. RESULTS: An association was found between abusive alcohol consumption and smoking cigarettes (OR=4.6), marijuana (OR=4.6) and using cocaine (OR=2.2); having a dysfunctional family was associated with smoking cigarettes (OR=1.2), using cocaine (OR=1.95) and abusive alcohol consumption (OR=1.94). CONCLUSIONS: Abusive alcohol consumption and having a dysfunctional family were influential factors regarding psychoactive substance consumption in public university students.

Método Estudio de tipo transversal realizado con 1359 estudiantes, seleccionados aleatoriamente. El instrumento de recolección incluyó el VESPA, CAGE, y las escalas de WHO, Rosemberg, Francis y APGAR. Se realizó análisis univariado y bivariado a través de razones de disparidad, con intervalos de confianza del 95 por ciento y error del 5 por ciento; análisis multivariado por medio de regresión logística, utilizando el programa Statistical Package Socials Sciencies (SPSS). Resultados Se encontró asociación entre el consumo abusivo de alcohol con el consumo de cigarrillos (OR=4,6), marihuana (OR=4,6) y cocaína (OR=2,2). El tener familias disfuncionales se asoció con el consumo de cigarrillo (OR=1,2), cocaína (OR=1,95) y consumo abusivo de alcohol (OR=1,94). Conclusiones El consumo abusivo de alcohol y la disfuncionalidad familiar son factores influyentes para el consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, en estudiantes universitarios.
