The purpose of this research was to analyze the possible relationship between the characteristics of alcohol consumption, and depressive and anxious symptomatology in a group of college students. The sample consisted of 73 students from a private university in Lima metropolitan area whose ages were between 18 and 24 years old (M = 19.07, SD = 1.50), mostly women (75.3%). The measurement of alcohol consumption characteristics was made through the Alcohol Consumption Survey (Arana, 2013), while depressive symptomatology was measured through the Argentine version (Brenlla y Rodríguez, 2006) of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II). Concurrently, anxious symptomatology was measured through the Spanish version (Sanz, 2011) of the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Although the results did not report a significant relationship between the study variables, it was found that the prevalence of binge drinking was 37.99%. In addition, the male prevalence was higher for episodes of excess of alcohol consumption. Also, other of the most consumed substances were tobacco and pills without prescription. In respect of symptomatology, minimal levels of depression were found with significant differences in the cognitive dimension among those who did not repeat courses for the second time from those who did. The anxious symptomatology was mild without significant differences according to sex or repetition of courses. In conclusion, despite the absence of a relationship between the variables studied, there is an important prevalence of alcohol and other substances, as well as depression and anxiety, which could negatively affect the participants.
