| Sumario: | Background: Alcohol and other drug prevention programs for adolescents are important health interventions. Each prevention program has essential components, so this study uses the implementation research logic model to evaluate these programs. Methods: A scoping review was done using PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, and LILACS databases. A PCC strategy was used: P – adolescents (10–19 years), C – determinants, implementation strategies and mechanisms of action, and C – alcohol and other drugs for the eligibility criteria. The results were summarized using the implementation research logic model. Results: Fifty prevention programs were identified. The programs were tested in developed countries with outcomes of prevention of alcohol and other drug use and well-being. They are organized into modules: adolescent development, skills, family, protective education, and social aspects. The essential components have been organized into determinants (relating to internal and external configurations), implementation strategies, and action mechanisms represented graphically. Conclusion: The logical model of implementation research applied to the context of alcohol and other drug prevention programs for adolescents can help policymakers include core elements for their development and evaluation.
