RESUMO
Abstract The incorrect disposal of medicines and their environmental impact has been related to the health medicalization and the improper use of medication by society. In this sense, it is very important to know the profile of drug disposal for foster health policies. The aim was to identify the profile of disposal of medicines by the population, including the cost perspective. This is an inquiry descriptive study that began in September 2019. Medicine disposal health education program was carried out over six months in two University pharmacies. A questionnaire for sociodemographic and discarded medicines data collection was applied. Logistic regression analysis for variables association of correct disposal and the chi-square and t-student analysis for comparison between disposal programs were performed for a level of 5% and test power of 80%. Medicines weighed 23.3 kg and 28.5 kg, with the cost variation from US$ 13.5 to US$ 16.1 until the final treatment. The correct disposal was strongly associated with the disposal reason (p=0.013), source of information (p=0.006), prescription (p=0.03), form of use (p=0.01), acquisition source (p=0.001), cost with medication (p=0.0001), education (p=0.028) and age (p=0.05). The correct medicine disposal was associated with important features of the community related to education health.

Resumen Este trabajo tuvo como propósito analizar los motivos de elección de estudios y establecer perfiles motivacionales diferenciados en estudiantes universitarios de nuevo ingreso en la Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA). Para ello se diseñó y validó un cuestionario ad hoc, estructurado en tres escalas de motivación: (1) Motivos de superación profesional y altruismo; (2) Búsqueda de prestigio y solvencia económica y (3) Motivos de evitación. El cuestionario se aplicó a la totalidad de los estudiantes de nuevo acceso a la UCA en el curso académico 2013-2014 (1 156 estudiantes de diferentes disciplinas). Los resultados permitieron establecer la existencia de grupos diferenciados de estudiantes y obtener un modelo predictivo de clasificación destinado al diseño de acciones de orientación que tengan en cuenta sus motivaciones y necesidades en un contexto determinado.
Abstract This study examines the career choice motivations of first year students in the Catholic University of Argentina (UCA) and describes a classification of the student characteristics that are associated with these motivations. A questionnaire was designed and validated for this purpose. The factor analysis renders three motivational dimensions: (1) Self-fulfilment and altruism; (2) Search for prestige and economic welfare; and (3) Avoidance motivation. The instrument has been applied to the first year cohort at UCA in the academic year 2013/14 (a total of 1156 students from different disciplines). The existence of differentiated student groups resulting from scores in the motivational scales has been demonstrated. The resulting predictive model can be purposed to guide interventions that are mindful of students' motivations and needs in a particular context.
