Increasing concern about the negative impact of alcohol on the Australian community has renewed calls for tighter regulatory controls. This paper reviews levels of and trends in public support for liquor control regulations, regulation of alcohol promotions, and alcohol pricing and taxation reforms in Australia between 1998 and 2009.
Six electronic databases and twenty public health and alcohol organisation websites were searched for research literature, reports and media releases describing levels of public support for alcohol controls. Only studies which randomly selected participants were included.
Twenty-one studies were included in the review. The majority of the Australian public support most proposed alcohol controls. Levels of support are divided between targeted and universal controls.
Implementation of targeted alcohol policies is likely to be strongly supported by the Australian public, but universal controls are liable to be unpopular. Policy makers are provided with insights into factors likely to be associated with higher public support.
对酒精对澳大利亚社会的负面影响的担忧日益加剧，这再次呼吁加强监管控制。本文综述了 1998 年至 2009 年期间，公众对酒类管制法规、酒类促销活动监管以及酒类价格和税收改革的支持程度和趋势。
在六个电子数据库和二十个公共卫生和酒精组织网站上搜索了描述公众对酒精控制支持程度的研究文献、报告和媒体发布。仅纳入了随机选择参与者的研究。
综述纳入了 21 项研究。大多数澳大利亚公众支持大多数拟议的酒精控制措施。支持的程度在有针对性的和普遍的控制之间存在分歧。
有针对性的酒精政策的实施可能会得到澳大利亚公众的大力支持，但普遍控制可能不受欢迎。为政策制定者提供了可能与更高公众支持相关的因素的深入了解。
