Las cogniciones implícitas asociadas al alcohol (CIAA) son creencias y/o actitudes que se originan a partir de experiencias afectivas tempranas vinculadas al uso de alcohol y que median la conducta de consumo de manera automática. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar si la exposición a publicidades de bebidas alcohólicas (PBA) produce cambios significativos en las CIAA. 83 estudiantes universitarios de la Univer-sidad Nacional de Córdoba fueron evaluados con el Test de Asociación Implícita tanto en el pre-test como en el post-test. Utilizamos un diseño factorial 2x2 (sexo y tipo de publicidad). Luego del pre-test, los grupos fueron expuestos a las respectivas condiciones. A partir de un ANOVA, los resultados mostraron que la exposición a PBA no produjo modificaciones signifi-cativas en las CIAA. Esto puede deberse a particularidades del método: a) su doble bipolari-dad (de conceptos y de atributos) y, b) la utilización de una versión general y no una afectiva.The alcohol-related implicit cognitions are beliefs that originate from early affective expe-riences related to alcohol use and mediate consumer behavior automatically. The aim of this study was to determine whether exposure to advertising of alcoholic bev-erages produces significant changes in alcohol-related implicit cognitions. 83 university students from the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba were assessed with the Implicit Association Test both in the pre-test as the post-test. We used a factorial design 2x2 (Sex and Advertising). After the pre-test groups were exposed to the respective conditions. Results showed that exposure to advertising of alcoholic beverages did not produce significant changes in implicit cognitions. This may be due to particuliarities of the method: a) his bi-polarity (of concepts and attributes) and b) the use of a general version and not an affec-tive one
