Furthermore, the participants in this study presented high social vulnerabilities.…”

Background The numerous transformations that occur during adolescence render this phase more susceptible to mental health issues, and it is therefore important to conduct studies assessing interventions aimed at promoting mental health among this population. Aim To evaluate the effects of integrative community therapy (ICT) on the mental health of adolescents. Method This is a quasi‐experimental pre‐ and post‐test study with a quantitative approach. The participants were 127 adolescents aged 12–17 years, attending a public school in the southern region of Minas Gerais, Brazil, who completed a participant characterisation questionnaire and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Ten ICT sessions were conducted for each group, with an average participation of 12 adolescents per group. The recommended guidelines of the Standards for Quality Improvement Reporting Excellence were used for the presentation of this study. Results In the pre‐intervention assessment, 70.1% of the adolescents presented a positive screening for mental health alteration. Females were more likely to present as borderline or abnormal based on the total SDQ score, and were more likely to report emotional and relationship issues with peers. It was evidenced that the ICT sessions contributed to a reduction in alterations in adolescent mental health in the domains of hyperactivity, emotional issues, conduct issues, relationship issues, and the total SDQ score. Conclusion Integrative community therapy was an effective intervention for reducing mental health alterations in adolescents. Worthy of note is the role of healthcare and education professionals in the promotion of adolescent health.

“…Women were more likely to present with borderline or abnormal scores on the SDQ total score and the emotional issues and relationship issues with peers subscales.

“…Discute-se que a falta de postura dos pais em impor limites, a influência de demais membros familiares, a facilidade de acesso e compra a baixos custos, além do incentivo de grupos iniciados, sejam fatores associados a essa vulnerabilidade. Além das consequências diretas do uso de álcool e outras drogas, a violência também se configura como resultante do uso dessas substâncias [25][26][27][28][29] .…”

“…Para tal, 1059 estudantes participaram deste estudo que mostrou que o uso foi associado a sentimentos de tristeza, ideações suicidas e comportamentos relacionados a experiências sexuais. Dados semelhantes foram reportados por Garcia-Cerde e colaboradores 43 , em estudo conduzido com 2316 adolescentes, no qual foi encontrada uma associação positiva entre o uso de múltiplas substâncias e sintomas psiquiátricos.…”

O objetivo deste estudo foi caracterizar as principais publicações que avaliaram o perfil dos estudantes brasileiros que utilizam álcool e outras drogas entre 2012 e 2022. Trata-se de uma Revisão de Escopo, realizada a partir de buscas nos bancos de dados virtuais: BVS, Scielo, Scopus, Web of Science e PubMed. Foram obtidos 31 artigos que analisaram os perfis dos estudantes usuários de drogas lícitas e ilícitas no território educacional brasileiro. Os resultados demonstraram que os prejuízos sociais, psíquicos e biológicos são consequências da utilização de álcool e outras drogas entre os adolescentes. Essa classe, por sua vez, revelou-se vulnerável ao início precoce e manutenção do uso dessas substâncias. Ademais, o uso de drogas lícitas e ilícitas relacionou-se a estudantes com renda salarial baixa, declarados não brancos, com núcleo familiar ruim e, em alguns casos, com comportamentos mais agressivos.
