RESUMO
Objetivo: Describir las frecuencias de consumo de alcohol y otras drogas, así como de diferentes tipos de victimización en la población reclusa de los centros penitenciarios de Castilla-La Mancha. Material y métodos: Estudio transversal analítico con una muestra de personas privadas de libertad en cuatro centros penitenciarios de Castilla-La Mancha. Se distribuyó una encuesta de victimización anónima entre un total de 425 internos, con un margen de confianza del 95%. Resultados: Las agresiones verbales se presentan como las más comunes, con un 41,4% (n=176), situándose en el extremo contrario la victimización sexual con un 7,8% (n=33). Respecto a la sustancia más habitual, destaca el cannabis con un 40,2% (n=171) de consumidores en el mes previo. Conclusiones: La victimización y el consumo de sustancias en prisión son una realidad, y se encuentra una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre ambos fenómenos. Resulta necesario su estudio para el planteamiento de medidas preventivas y mejorar la vida en prisión (AU)
