Resumen

El objetivo del estudio es identificar los factores personales asociados con el consume de drogas y la práctica de actividad física en una población de estudiantes universitarios del noroeste de España. Se realizó un estudio cross-sectional entre Enero y Abril de 2010 usando un cuestionario auto- contestado que incluía género, edad, titulación y curso de estudios, con- vivencia y trabajo, y también preguntas sobre su consumo actual de tabaco, consumo de alcohol y episodios de consumo elevado de alcohol, uso de drogas ilegales y frecuencia de actividad física. Se calcularon las prevalencias y se realizó un análisis bivariante y multivariante por regresión logística para distintos modelos para los hábitos ajustando por las varia- bles sociodemográficas. La mayoría de los estudiantes consume alcohol (78,3%), un 31,7% consume tabaco y un 34% ha consumido drogas ilegales en algún momento. La prevalencia de realización de actividad física suficiente fue del 22,7%, siendo claramente menor en mujeres y en titulaciones no vinculadas al deporte. Menos mujeres consumen drogas ilegales y alcohol, pero el consumo episódico elevado de alcohol es mayor en mujeres. Vivir con amigos es un factor de riesgo para el consumo de drogas legales e ilegales respecto a vivir con los padres. Las titulaciones sobre deporte, salud y educación mostraron menores prevalencias de con- sumo de drogas que las otras. Puesto que el consumo de drogas y la ina- decuada actividad física varían según género, situación de convivencia y titulación, sería apropiado tener estas diferencias en cuenta para diseñar intervenciones más eficientes de promoción de la salud.
