| Description: | Currently, alcohol intake among students is mainly analyzed by a psychological approach with a highly epidemiological perspective. This paper aims to find some sociological determinants of this phenomenon, with special interest in therole of peer groups. To achieve these goals, a survey was conducted with nine hundred six students from Puebla. It was found that alcohol intake is determined by some “hanging out” that students usually do on weekends. In addition, it was discovered that these social events are only statistically related to enjoying the social interactions, regardless of social pressure (as the main alcohol-study perspective would suggest). These findings underline the importance of the social fact to explain alcohol intake. El consumo alcohólico en la población estudiantil es un tema analizado principalmente desde un enfoque psicológico y con fuertes perspectivas epidemiológicas. Este trabajo pretende encontrar algunas determinantes sociológicas de dicho fenómeno, particularmente revisando el rol del grupo de pares. Para esto, se hizo una encuesta a novecientos seis estudiantes de Ciudad Universitaria en Puebla. Se encontró que el consumo alcohólico está determinado por “salidas a beber” que los estudiantes hacen usualmente los fines de semana. Además, se descubrió que dichas “salidas” están sólo explicadas por el gusto al ambiente ahí desarrollado, sin importar la presión social ejercida (como sugiere la corriente de estudio predominante). Estos hallazgos subrayan la importancia de lo social para explicar el consumo de alcohol. |
