El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar las diferencias de género en el consumo de sustancias legales, como son el alcohol y el tabaco, en la adolescencia. La muestra, recogida en cinco centros de educación secundaria, estuvo compuesta por 352 adolescentes de ambos sexos. Los resultados mostraron que el patrón de consumo de este tipo de sustancias ha cambiado ya que, mientras hace décadas prácticamente sólo los hombres eran consumidores, actualmente no parecen encontrarse diferencias estadísticamente significativas en este tipo de comportamientos en función del género. Este fenómeno está en consonancia con la denominada fase 3 que apuntan López, Collishaw y Piha (1994) para explicar teóricamente la dinámica del tabaquismo en países desarrollados. Se recomienda seguir en esta línea de investigación de cara a la puesta en marcha de programas de intervención más eficaces.
