Synopsis "Alcohol and Tobacco in College Students and Perception of Risk"
It has been recognized that alcohol and tobacco consumption is related to public health problems that harm the most vulnerable sectors of our society; among them adolescents and young people who are at a stage of life where they can be influenced by the consumption of alcohol and tobacco and other psychoactive substances (Matute and Pillon, 2008), which, in turn, through excessive consumption of alcohol and tobacco causes millions of deaths in the world each year. According to the National Survey on Drug, Alcohol and Tobacco Consumption (ENCODAT, 2016-2017) shows that the prevalence for the consumption of these substances begins during the age of 12 to 65 years, which causes diffusions and disability at a relatively early stage, The World Health Organization (WHO, 2010), The World Health Organization (WHO, 2010) states that alcoholism in many countries is already a harmful use among young people, which reduces self-control, leading to the adoption of risky behaviors, so that five out of ten leading causes of mortality are directly or indirectly related to alcohol abuse (Secretaría de Salud [SSA], 2010).
