Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact to the intervention program Stop to Think on the prevention of alcohol use/abuse among school-aged adolescents.
METHODS: It is a quasi-experimental study, with pre- and post-test, 178 participants, 7th grade, experimental group (n = 70) subject to intervention and control group (n = 108) without intervention. The Alcohol knowledge Questionnaire, Alcohol Expectancy Questionnaire, Social Skills Rating System were used.
RESULTS: The experimental group showed a positive evolution of knowledge and expectations about alcohol, perception of peer alcohol use and reported consumption (p < .05).
CONCLUSION: The program proved to be effective in stabilizing alcohol consumption, increasing knowledge, stabilizing the positive expectations, and in the perception of peer alcohol use. Further research should be developed and follow-up should continue to consolidate these findings.
