Sumario: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of educational prevention program of tobacco and alcohol consumption in a sample of 134 students as experimental group and 104 students as control group. The hypotheses were: If after the intervention:H1 the self-esteem will be bigger in the experimental group than the control group.H2 the self-efficacy will be bigger in the experimental group than the control group.H3 the tobaco and alcohol consumption will be lesser in the experimental group than the control group.MethodologyQuasi experimental design, the study was realized in series of time, with measurments before and after the program. The program was in teenagers who were first year at public junior high school (2 groups) and a private junior high school (2 groups). The schools were selected of random form. The sampling was not probabilistic, because the intervention was applied in all students of the first years of selected junior high schools. Twelve sessions were carried-out, measurements of variables results before and after the intervention were realized. At the end of intervention the proportion of tabacco and alcohol consumption was lessen in experimental groups. The self-esteem and self-efficacy index showed differences of significant measurements between experimental and control group where the experimental group presented higher means and averages.
