A non-probabilistic sample of 838 public high school students was studied for this research. An exploratory factor analysis was carried out using the maximum likelihood method of extraction and the Oblimin rotation. The evidence of data adequacy shows a rate of KMO .90 and a meaningful Bartlett’s test of sphericity (X2=4774.8, p=.000), which holds the adequacy and reliability of .90 with Cronbach’s alpha. The empiric validity of the model is established (X2=35.4, gl=26, p=104; CMIN/gl= 1.36; CFI=.998; NFI= .993; GFI=.991; AGFI=.985; RMSEA=.028) by structural equations as a corroborative method. The proposed method holds the appropriate parameters for a sustainable manner of assessing the intent of alcohol consumption in teenagers.}, number={3}, journal={Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology}, author={Vera Noriega, Jose Angel and Quintana, Jesús Tánori and Valdés Cuervo, Ángel Alberto and Ortega, Lydia Esther Martínez and Martínez, Ernesto Alonso Carlos}, year={2015}, month={May} }
