Abstract

In this article, the methodological framework and the results of a study is aimed at testing whether the social support of the family, which a teenager perceives as such, moderates the relationship between the specific symptoms of anxiety and the risk of alcohol abuse. The results we have obtained, suggests that social support from the family can help alleviate the risk of alcohol abuse among adolescents experiencing anxiety. In the context of current social, cultural and economic changes, as well as age-specific challenges, adolescence is seen as an insidious stage in the development of the human individual. For this reason, increased attention to the need for support can help prevent the risks to adolescents' physical and mental health, including the use of harmful substances.
