Abstract

This study presents results about attitudes toward tobacco scale (López-Sánchez, García-Rodriguez, Mira & Estévez, 2000), alcohol scale (García-Rodríguez & López-Sánchez, 2001) and other drugs (López-Sánchez et al., 2000) scale adaptations to portuguese population. There are three scales, 13 items each one and five points Likert response scale with three sub scales. We have used two independent samples with 329 and 443 adolescents, north country high school students. Data collected, after confirmatory and exploratoy analysis, showed a good solution to each one scale, with high validity and reliability rates. Results in concurrent validity suggest gender differences with all the sub scales and a negative relation with age, as well as attitude differences based on experience and consumption.
