Abstract

Introduction: Drug use among the young population of developing countries has increased in the last decades; educational and health institutions are concerned about this trend, as it can alter learning and memory, and particularly affects university students.Purpose: To describe and compare the relationship between drug use and academic performance among Health Sciences students at two Latin American universities.Method: Non-probability convenience sampling was used and the Drug Use among University Students Questionnaire (CODEU) was applied online. Data analysis was carried out based on descriptive statistics, and the point biserial correlation coefficient and Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test were applied, considering the grade average obtained during the last period studied.Results: At the Universidad Veracruzana it was found that the use of alcohol, marijuana, cocaine and inhalable drugs decreases academic performance, while at the Universidad de Boyaca only the use of tranquilizers affected academic performance.Conclusions: It is important to continue conducting similar studies in order to obtain more accurate results and to clarify the relationship between drug use and academic performance. Therefore, it is recommended that variables related to the consequences of drug use be incorporated into indicators such as attendance, homework, and grades.

两所拉丁美洲大学医科学生的药物和学习成绩
导言:过去几十年来,发展中国家青年人口中的药物使用有所增加;教育和卫生机构对这一趋势感到担忧,因为它可能改变学习和记忆,尤其是对大学生的影响。目的:描述和比较两所拉丁美洲大学健康科学专业学生吸毒与学业成绩之间的关系。方法:采用非概率方便抽样方法,采用在线《大学生吸毒现状调查问卷》。数据分析基于描述性统计,考虑到上一期的平均成绩,采用点双列相关系数和Kruskal-Wallis非参数检验。结果:在Veracruzana大学,发现使用酒精、大麻、可卡因和可吸入药物会降低学习成绩,而在Boyaca大学,只有使用镇静剂会影响学习成绩。结论:为了获得更准确的结果,明确吸毒与学业成绩的关系,继续开展类似的研究是很重要的。因此,建议将与吸毒后果有关的变量纳入出勤、家庭作业和成绩等指标。
