At the Iberoamericana University several epidemiological levels of risk- protective psychosocial factors were investigated in 2007 among a representative sample of undergraduate students. The results, grouped in a psychosocial risk coefficient, show they maintained stable in the last two years, except for the Inappropriate Handle of Sexuality and Health, which increased, and Scholar Factors and Illegal Drugs that decreased. The area Psychosocial Vulnerability, as in previous studies, is still higher than Toxic Substance Consumption; also, the differences in psychosocial risks between men and women are made evident. Keywords Psychosocial Risk, Drug Abuse, Vulnerability, Adolescence, Gender.
