Resumen
El consumo de sustancias psicoactivas (SPA) ha sido considerado una problemática de alcance global. Su uso está estrechamente relacionado con las experiencias subjetivas de primera persona, como es el caso del placer. Otras cuestiones, como la confrontación de la norma, los valores, el sentido de la vida, la existencia misma y el mundo habitado se relacionan de manera significativa con el uso de SPA. Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo de identificar las características sociodemográficas de los participantes y sus dinámicas de consumo, sus prácticas y sus impactos. Se abordó la comprensión de cómo dichos estudiantes universitarios advierten y se percatan de la experiencia del uso de sustancias psicoactivas y las búsquedas que tienen con ello y cómo esta experiencia influye en su vida universitaria. Se hizo uso de un enfoque cualitativo y un método fenomenológico hermenéutico que tuvo como participantes a 25 estudiantes entre los 18 y 27 años. Se empleó una encuesta y una entrevista semiestructurada tendiente a identificar sus experiencias y evidenciar sus percepciones y opiniones el consumo de sustancias y los cambios que han experimentado; otro de los instrumentos fue la narrativa a profundidad que permitió dotar de sentido las experiencias relatadas; se realizó igualmente un PIL Test (Purpose in Life Test) para identificar los sentidos y significados de vida de los estudiantes. Entre los resultados más significativos se tiene el identificar dinámicas de resistencia al poder institucional como expresión de procesos de transformación vital de los sujetos participantes, así como el rol del contexto universitario en el consumo como forma de habitar el mundo y relacionarse con éste, más allá de la mera experiencia del placer.
The consumption of psychoactive substances (PAS) has been considered a problem of global scope. Its use is closely related to subjective first-person experiences, such as pleasure. Other issues, such as the confrontation of norm, values, the meaning of life, existence itself and the inhabited world are significantly related to the use of SPA. This work aimed to identify the sociodemographic characteristics of the participants and their consumption dynamics, their practices and their impacts. The understanding of how these university students notice and become aware of the experience of the use of psychoactive substances and the searches they have with it and how this experience influences their university life was addressed. A qualitative approach and a hermeneutical phenomenological method were used that had 25 students between 18 and 27 years of age as participants. A survey and a semi-structured interview were used to identify their experiences and evidence their perceptions and opinions, substance use and the changes they have experienced; Another of the instruments was the in-depth narrative that made it possible to give meaning to the experiences reported; a PIL Test (Purpose in Life Test) was also carried out to identify the meanings and meanings of life of the students. Among the most significant results is the identification of dynamics of resistance to institutional power as an expression of processes of vital transformation of the participating subjects, as well as the role of the university context in consumption as a way of inhabiting the world and relating to it, beyond the mere experience of pleasure
