Abstrakt: The present study analyzed focus groups (FGs) used as part of a prevention action project targeting students in their secondary school to identify a prevention strategy capable of modifying adolescents' opinions on alcohol and its consumption. This part of the research aimed to provide a 1st snapshot of the topics developed. Among the main topics that emerged spontaneously were: the idea that alcohol consumption is natural in our society; the limited awareness of the risks of drinking; the concept that there is a normal use of alcohol; and abuse being related to problems of physical and psychological health.
