    El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la relación existente entre la disposición al riesgo en las relaciones sexuales en personas adolescentes y variables afectivo-emocionales tales como el apego a la madre, al padre, a los iguales, los estilos de apego y las dificultades de regulación emocional.

    Han participado 1911 adolescentes escolarizados, de ambos sexos, entre 15 y 20 años. Los resultados indican que la seguridad del apego se relaciona inversamente con la disposición al riesgo en las relaciones sexuales, mientras que las dificultades de regulación muestran una asociación positiva, con diferencias entre sujetos sexualmente activos y no activos. Se han hallado diferencias por género, y por categorías de apego, así como entre las personas sexualmente activas y no activas.

    The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between risktaking in sexual relationships and affective-emotional variables such as attachment to mother, father, peers, attachment styles and difficulties in emotional regulation capacity in adolescence. 1911 adolescent students of both sexes between 15 and 20 years of age participated. Results indicate that attachment security is inversely related to risk-taking in sexual relationships.

    Less risk-taking is associated with attachment to mother and peers in sexually inactive adolescents while in the sexually active with the capacity for emotional regulation. Differences were found in gender and attachment styles and among sexually active and inactive adolescents.
