Resumen
Estudios neurobiológicos tienen como hipótesis un camino final común al comportamiento adictivo en el sistema mesolímbico. La nicotina se ha mostrado como una recompensa, causando un aumento en el comportamiento de buscar drogas. Desde que hay evidencia que la nicotina, el alcohol y otras substancias psicoactivas actúan de la misma forma y parecen aumentar sus efectos en sujetos animales, el comportamiento con el uso de drogas por los humanos se ve reflejado con el aumento en el uso de personas nicótico-dependientes. Nosotros usamos marcadores biológicos de la sustancia tanto como cuestionarios para clasificar los niveles del uso de substancias psicoactivas entre jóvenes de 18 años. Encontramos que el aumento de los niveles de la dependencia de la nicotina estaba relacionado a altos niveles del abuso de alcohol. Aparte, la dependencia de altos niveles de nicotina estaban asociados a niveles elevados del uso de cannabis.
