Este estudio tiene por objetivo analizar la influencia de variables relacionadas con el estilo educativo de los padres, en el consumo de drogas por parte de los adolescentes que acuden al Servicio de Orientación Familiar en Drogodependencias [SOFAD]. La muestra se compone de 26 jóvenes de ambos sexos, con una media de edad de 16 años (77% hombres y 23% mujeres). Los análisis descriptivos muestran que las familias de estos jóvenes se guían por reglas flexibles cuyo incumplimiento no trae consecuencias, o bien, reglas para las que no existe una definición adecuada y el grado de cumplimiento es bajo. En estas familias predominan los valores relacionados con el éxito social como éxito económico o material y pautas de comunicación caracterizadas por la incertidumbre y la desconfianza. Se discute la relación entre los estilos educativos y el consumo de sustancias, proponiendo estrategias de prevención comunitaria que sensibilicen e incrementen la participación de los padres en los centros educativos y mejoren su implicación en actividades formativas relacionadas con la prevención.
