Alcohol consumption in young persons is a growing phenomenon, with significant implications for physical and mental health. This behavior exposes adolescents and young adults to multiple risks, such as affecting cognitive functions, the development of emotional disorders, and social integration difficulties. The present study sets out to investigate the way alcohol consumption influences emotionality in young people, focusing on the emotional changes (anxiety and irritability), cognitive changes (attention deficit and memory disorder), and behavioral changes (impulsivity and aggressiveness). The methodology involved collecting quantitative data from a sample of young people who consume and do not consume alcohol, using standardized questionnaires and advanced statistical software (processed in MATLAB version 9.11_R2021b). We analyzed variables such as consumption frequency and intensity, affective scores, and demographic factors to highlight the correlations between consumption level and the intensity of affective modifications. The results revealed a significant association between alcohol consumption and the rise in anxiety and depression symptoms or a tendency toward impulsive behaviors. Additionally, we observed that psychosocial factors, including group pressure, family climate, and stressful contexts, can exacerbate emotional vulnerability. This study suggests the need for early psychological interventions and prevention programs to approach emotional and cognitive dimensions and the social influences associated with consumption. Implementing support and counseling strategies, as well as education and awareness campaigns, can contribute to reducing risky behavior and promoting young people's harmonious development.
年轻人饮酒现象日益普遍，对身心健康有着重大影响。这种行为使青少年和年轻人面临多种风险，比如影响认知功能、引发情绪障碍以及出现社会融入困难等问题。本研究旨在探讨饮酒对年轻人情绪的影响方式，重点关注情绪变化（焦虑和易怒）、认知变化（注意力缺陷和记忆障碍）以及行为变化（冲动和攻击性）。研究方法包括使用标准化问卷和先进统计软件（在MATLAB 9.11_R2021b版本中处理），从饮酒和不饮酒的年轻人群体样本中收集定量数据。我们分析了饮酒频率和强度、情感得分以及人口统计学因素等变量，以突出饮酒水平与情感变化强度之间的相关性。结果显示，饮酒与焦虑和抑郁症状的增加或冲动行为倾向之间存在显著关联。此外，我们还观察到，包括群体压力、家庭氛围和压力情境在内的社会心理因素会加剧情绪脆弱性。本研究表明，需要尽早开展心理干预和预防项目，以应对与饮酒相关的情绪和认知层面问题以及社会影响。实施支持和咨询策略，以及开展教育和宣传活动，有助于减少危险行为，促进年轻人的和谐发展。
