Antecedentes. En adolescentes es inconsistente la asociación entre religiosidad y estilo de vida (actividad física, actividad coital, consumo de cigarrillos, consumo problemático de alcohol y consumo de sustancias ilegales que pueden inducir dependencia). Sin embargo, se conoce poco de la relación entre estas dos variables en adolescentes colombianos.
Objetivo. Establecer la asociación entre religiosidad y estilo de vida en estudiantes de Cartagena, Colombia.
Materiales y métodos. Se realizó un estudio transversal en el que participaron estudiantes entre 13 y 17 años. Se estimó la relación entre inactividad física, experiencia coital alguna vez en la vida, consumo de cigarrillos durante el último mes, consumo problemático de alcohol, consumo de alguna sustancia ilegal alguna vez en la vida y religiosidad.
Resultados. Participaron 1730 estudiantes; media de edad de 14.7 años (DE=1.2) y 52.7% mujeres. Con ajuste por edad y sexo, las asociaciones para baja religiosidad fueron inactividad física (OR=1.00; IC95% 0.80-1.24), experiencia coital (OR=1.38; IC95% 1.09-1.74), consumo de cigarrillos (OR=1.40; IC95% 0.90-2.18), consumo problemático de alcohol (OR=1.20; IC95% 0.87-1.65) y consumo de alguna sustancia ilegal (OR=1.27; IC95% 0.89-1.81).
Conclusión. En esta muestra de estudiantes, la baja religiosidad se relaciona con alguna experiencia coital alguna vez en la vida. Se necesitan más estudios que evalúen el papel de la religiosidad en el estilo de vida de los adolescentes.
Background. Among adolescents, it is inconsistent the association between religiosity and lifestyle (physical activity, coital activity, smoking, alcohol consumption and problematic consumption of illegal substances that can induce dependence). However, there is few information about the relationship between these two variables in Colombian adolescents.
Objective. To establish the association between religiosity and lifestyle among adolescent students in Cartagena, Colombia.
Materials and Methods. A cross-sectional analytical research was carried out including a random sample of adolescent students, aged between 13 and 17 years old. Authors estimated association between physical inactivity, lifetime sexual intercourse, last-month cigarette smoking, abusive alcohol consumption and lifetime illegal substance use, and religiosity.
Results. A group of 1730 students participated in the research, mean age was 14.7 years (SD=1.2), and 52.7% were girls. Associations for low-religiosity were physical inactivity (OR=1.00; 95%CI 0.80-1.24), sexual intercourse (OR=1.38; 95%CI 1.09-1.74), cigarette smoking (OR=1.40; 95%CI 0.90-2.18), abusive alcohol consumption (OR=1.20; 95%CI 0.87-1.65) and illegal substance use (OR=1.27; 95%CI 0.89-1.81), adjusted for age and gender.
Conclusions. In this sample of adolescent students, low religiosity is related to lifetime sexual intercourse. More research is needed to investigate the relationship between religiosity and lifestyle among adolescents.
