Enquadramento: A adolescência caracteriza-se por ser uma etapa do ciclo vital onde o
desejo de experimentação e de exploração de novas sensações conduz muitos
adolescentes à iniciação no consumo de álcool, com consequências nefastas para a saúde
do jovem. O comportamento auto-regulado em saúde compreende o controlo das
necessidades mais imediatas (controlo de impulsos) e a mobilização de pensamentos,
sentimentos e comportamentos para objectivos de saúde a longo prazo.
Objectivos: Analisar a relação entre as variáveis sociodemográficas, de contexto escolar,
estilos de vida, envolvimento e expectativas face ao álcool e variáveis psicológicas (autoestima
e autoconceito) com as competências de auto-regulação em adolescentes do ensino
secundário do distrito de Viseu.
Métodos: Recorreu-se a um modelo de investigação quantitativo, transversal, analítico,
descritiva e correlacional. Participaram 971 estudantes do ensino secundário público e
cooperativo. O protocolo de avaliação inclui o questionário sociodemográfico, a Escala de
Envolvimento com o Álcool para Adolescentes de Mayer & Filstead (1979) adaptada por
Fonte & Alves (1999), o Questionário Reduzido de Auto-regulação (Carey, Neal & Collins,
2004 adaptado por Castillo & Dias, 2009), o Questionário de Expectativas face ao Álcool
para Adolescentes (Pilatti, Godoy & Brussino, 2010), a Escala de Auto-Estima de
Rosenberg (Romano, Negreiro & Martins, 2007), o Inventário Clínico do Autoconceito (Vaz
Serra, 1984) e dados sociodemográficos, escolares e estilos de vida.
Resultados: Os estudantes com idades compreendidas entre os 14 – 21 anos, na sua
maioria rapazes (50,80%), com idade igual ou inferior a 16 anos (43,40%), residentes em
meio rural (66,40%), em coabitação com os pais (77,30%) e inseridos em agregados
familiares com um rendimento médio mensal médio alto ou alto (56,70%). Revelaram-se
bebedores habituais sem problemas (75,30%), com elevadas expectativas face ao álcool
(45,10%), boa auto-estima (47,40%) e com um bom autoconceito (45,30%). A autoregulação
(total) foi influenciada pelo envolvimento com o álcool, expectativas face ao
álcool, auto-estima negativa e duas das dimensões do autoconceito (maturidade psicológica
e impulsividade/actividade).
Conclusão: O desenvolvimento de competências de auto-regulação revela-se um
investimento em saúde uma vez que, o adolescente com um comportamento auto-regulado
assume estilos de vida mais saudáveis, revelando um menor envolvimento com o álcool.

Objectives: analyze the relation between sociodemographic variables, of school context, lifestyles, involvement and expectations towards alcohol and psychological variables (selfesteem and self-concept) with the powers of self-regulation in adolescents of secondary school in the district of Viseu. Methods: He turned to a quantitative research model, transversal, analytic, descriptive and correlational. 971 public and cooperative high school students participated. The evaluation protocol includes a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Alcohol Involvement Scale for Adolescents by Filstead & Mayer (1979) adapted by Fonte & Alves (1999), the Questionnaire of Reduced Self-regulation (Carey, Neal & Collins, 2004) adapted by Castillo & Dias (2009), the Questionnaire of Expectations in relation to Alcohol for Teens (Pilatti, Brussino & Godoy, 2010), Self-Esteem Scale of Rosenberg (Romano, Negreiro & Martins, 2007), Clinical Inventory of Self-concept (Vaz Serra, 1984), demographic data, school and lifestyles.
