Resumen
El consumo de alcohol es uno de los problemas entre los jóvenes. Un rasgo de personalidad que estudia su efecto sobre el consumo de alcohol es la búsqueda de sensaciones. El objetivo de esta investigación fue probar en un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales, la validez factorial del consumo de alcohol, a partir de la búsqueda de sensaciones. Se administró el inventario de búsqueda de sensaciones (Palacios, 2015a) y se midió el consumo de alcohol con un cuestionario en una muestra formada por 550 jóvenes entre 14 y 23 años de edad, en la Ciudad de México. Los resultados indicaron la validez factorial del consumo de alcohol en esta muestra. El análisis de ecuaciones estructurales sugirió que la búsqueda de sensaciones es un predictor del comportamiento de consumo de alcohol. La discusión analiza la influencia de la búsqueda de sensaciones en el consumo de alcohol y se sugieren implicaciones de intervención.
