Abstract: Negative consequences of alcohol abuse during adolescence have been extensively described. Consequently, different interventions have been developed to address this issue. This article describes the implementation and evaluation of Iudicium, an educational drama-based intervention designed to increase risk perception of alcohol abuse. In this activity, high school students judge a case in which alcohol consumption had negative consequences (e.g., fights, unwanted pregnancy, and car accident). A trial is simula… Show more

“…Risk perception has been extensively studied in many fields. Some public health-related issues, such as binge drinking [17,18], chicken contamination [19] and influenza vaccination [20]; and some occupational safety issues, such as the usage of hearing protection devices [10], involvement in safety management [21] and the aviation industry [22,23] are all introducing a lot of research on risk perception. Similarly, in the field of construction safety [24,25], risk perception has been well studied.…”

“…Although most of the studies focused on chronic alcohol consumption, the most common type of drinking especially in the young population is excessive alcohol consumption (Ngandeu et al, 2018).

“…Por su parte, el consumo de alcohol durante la adolescencia es una práctica socialmente aceptada debido a que facilita la socialización pero se ha convertido en una preocupación importante para los sistemas de salud y educativos, sobre todo cuando resulta excesivo como lo reportan ya diversas encuestas mundiales y nacionales. Para Bajac et al (2016) el alcohol es la droga legal de inicio y su consumo en la adolescencia incrementa el riesgo de involucrarse con otro tipo de sustancias ilícitas como la marihuana y la cocaína, entre otras, debido a que se trata de una etapa en la que el cerebro aún no termina de madurar y su consumo abusivo conlleva un gran número de consecuencias negativas a nivel psicológico, social y físico, tales como dificultades en el control de las emociones, agresión y peleas físicas, conductas sexuales de riesgo, náuseas, resacas y vómitos, entre otros. Young (1996), que contiene 20 ítems valorados en una escala Likert de cinco puntos (1=rara vez, a 5=siempre) para evaluar el impacto del uso de Internet en las interacciones sociales y su influencia en la vida diaria del participante (α = .90).…”
