To examine sex differences in alcohol consumption according to age groups, and to assess gender and age effects on several aspects of alcohol consumption patterns.
Based on a Brazilian nationwide representative sample (n = 3,007), we analysed the differences in drinking patterns between genders. We also assessed the effects of gender, age, and gender by age interaction for alcohol consumption dimensions (frequent drinking, usual intake, binge drinking, and frequent binge drinking), using logistic and negative binomial regression models.
Gender, age, and gender by age interaction had significant effects on the predictive models for all studied drinking patterns, except for the 'usual' dosage. The effect of gender on drinking patterns varies with age. While gender has a greater effect in older age groups, the difference between men and women decreased in the younger age groups.
Gender convergence regarding alcohol use is a trend that might be influenced by environmental factors and should be addressed in prevention and treatment programs, as well as in public health policies.
根据年龄组研究饮酒的性别差异，并评估性别和年龄对饮酒模式的几个方面的影响。
基于巴西全国代表性样本（n=3007），我们分析了不同性别之间的饮酒模式差异。我们还使用逻辑回归和负二项回归模型评估了性别、年龄以及性别与年龄的交互作用对饮酒维度（频繁饮酒、通常摄入量、 binge 饮酒和频繁 binge 饮酒）的影响。
性别、年龄和性别与年龄的交互作用对所有研究的饮酒模式的预测模型均有显著影响，除了“通常”剂量。性别对饮酒模式的影响随年龄而变化。虽然性别在年龄较大的群体中影响更大，但男性和女性之间的差异在年龄较小的群体中有所减少。
关于饮酒的性别趋同是一种趋势，可能受到环境因素的影响，应在预防和治疗计划以及公共卫生政策中加以解决。
