The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between self-esteem and alcohol consumption in 18-25 year-old university students from a private university in East Lima. It is contextualized in a quantitative, correlational, and non-experimental margin, with the survey as the data collection technique. A total of 334 individuals of 18-25 years of age attending an institution of higher education were integrated, and they were given two questionnaires corresponding to the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the AUDIT Questionnaire to assess self-esteem and alcohol consumption. The findings showed that the majority of young people manifested regular self-esteem in 82% and regular alcohol consumption in 79.3%. A negative and significant correlation was found between self- esteem and alcohol consumption in university students aged 18 to 25 years from a private university in East Lima (Spearman's rho = -0.771, p < .05). This result indicates that as alcohol consumption increases, young people's self-esteem decreases, suggesting a moderate relationship between both variables.
