    El consumo de sustancias entre los adolescentes supone un grave problema social que podría relacionarse con la dependencia emocional, estilos de apego y dificultades en la regulación emocional. De esta forma, los objetivos del presente estudio fueron analizar la relación y el papel predictivo de la dependencia emocional, apego y regulación emocional sobre el consumo de sustancias el último mes. Además, se analizaron las diferencias en función del género y edad en todas las variables del estudio. Igualmente, se comprobó el papel mediador de la regulación emocional y los estilos de apego en la relación entre la dependencia emocional y el consumo de sustancias. La muestra empleada estaba compuesta por 1.533 adolescentes escolarizados, 826 hombres y 707 mujeres con edades entre los 13 y los 22 años (M = 15.76, DT = 1.25). Los resultados mostraron una relación positiva entre el consumo de sustancias y la dependencia emocional. Del mismo modo, las personas consumidoras de sustancias manifestaron relaciones positivas con las dificultades de regulación emocional, así como, con los estilos de apego de permisividad parental, autosuficiencia y rencor contra los padres y traumatismo infantil y relaciones negativas con la seguridad, preocupación familiar, interferencia parental y valor a la autoridad parental.

    Sociocultural aspects of drug dependency during early pregnancy and considerations for screening: Case studies of social networks and structural violence
    (2019) Sánchez-Sauco, Miguel F.; Villalona, Seiichi; Ortega-García, Juan A.; Cirugía, Pediatría y Obstetricia y Ginecología
    Objective To contribute in closing the current gap in literature that holistically examines sociocultural influences on perinatal drug dependency. This article draws from social network theory and structural violence to qualitatively consider the contextual components of addiction and substance use during pregnancy, which purposefully moves away from situating this issue from solely being within the contexts of pathologized disorders or products of social inequalities. Design Face-to-face semi-structured interviews with drug-dependent pregnant women identified during a reproductive environmental health consultation. Setting Interviews were conducted at a university hospital in southeastern Spain between October 2015 and June 2016. Participants 10 pregnant women with confirmed perinatal substance use and/or drug dependency. Findings The sociocultural perspective offers a useful lens by which providers can understand the reasons for initial substance use and progress of multi-drug dependency as way of individually tailoring intervention strategies for expecting mothers. This perspective draws from the frameworks of social network analysis (SNA) and structural violence to dialectically examine drug dependency in this unique patient population not to be solely an individual occurrence, but rather a combination of macro and micro-level factors at play. Key Conclusions The sociocultural approach in examining maternal health allows for the holistic exploration of the already taboo and symbolically paradoxical phenomenon of drug dependency in pregnant women. Implications for Practice The “Hoja Verde” and similar perinatal screening methods that comprehensively assess for the potential of environmental risks can be a key instrument in the practice of preventing developmental issues of children as early as pregnancy and into adolescence.

    Substance abuse and its relationship to emotional dependence, attachment and emotional regulation in adolescents
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021) Momeñe, Janire; Estévez, Ana; Pérez-García, Ana M.; Jiménez, Javier; Chávez-Vera, María D.; Olave, Leticia; Iruarrizaga, Itziar
    Substance use among adolescents is a serious social problem that may be related to emotional dependence, attachment styles and difficulties in emotional regulation. Thus, the objectives of this study were to analyse the relationship and predictive role of emotional dependence, attachment and emotional regulation on substance use in the last month. In addition, gender and age differences were analysed in all variables of the study. The mediating role of emotional regulation and attachment styles in the relationship between emotional dependence and substance use was also verified. The sample used was made up of 1.533 schooled adolescents, 826 men and 707 women with ages ranging from 13 to 22 years (M = 15.76, SD = 1.25). The results showed a positive relationship between substance use and emotional dependence. Similarly, substance users showed positive relationships with the difficulties of emotional regulation, as well as, with the attachment styles of parental permissiveness, selfsufficiency and resentment against parents and child trauma, and negative relationships with secure attachment, family concern, parental interference and value to parental authority.
