El objetivo de este estudio fue explorar las actitudes de las personas que se inyectan drogas (PID) y realizan prácticas de inyección de riesgo, identificando los factores subyacentes a su discurso que sustentan esas actitudes. Se planteó una investigación cualitativa con un diseño de grupos de discusión con PID (n = 34) y entrevistas a expertos(as) (n = 3). Los grupos y entrevistas fueron grabados, transcritos y analizados bajo el enfoque de la teoría fundamentada y el método del análisis temático. Se identificaron 17 categorías de riesgo, agrupadas en seis dimensiones: Consumo de drogas, Conocimiento, Confianza en otras personas, Acceso a jeringuillas nuevas, Situación personal y Azar. Estas dimensiones modularían la magnitud de las actitudes hacia las distintas prácticas de inyección de riesgo o actuarían como barreras que socavan la intención de las PID de inyectarse de manera segura. El discurso analizado sugiere que muchas PID han desarrollado actitudes poco negativas, neutras o incluso positivas hacia algunas prácticas de inyección de riesgo, principalmente hacia su realización en situaciones determinadas y aun conociendo las consecuencias negativas que estas entrañan. Proponer una descripción diferenciada de las actitudes asociadas a las prácticas de inyección de riesgo no sólo contribuye a profundizar en su explicación, sino que permitirá una mayor adecuación de los programas preventivos a las necesidades específicas de las PID.Citas
