OBJECTIVE
This paper aims to study nightly disorder within a single bar over an extended period, in order to analyse variations across time ( = 258 nights).
METHODS
The security staff of a large Canadian nightclub agreed to note detailed information on every intervention in which they were involved. Bouncers wrote detailed narratives of each incident of aggression and incivility that occurred in the bar. Environmental characteristics (e.g. number of admissions and alcohol sales) were collected by one of the co-authors.
RESULTS
"Hot nights" were observed. The number of problem events was particularly high on Tuesday nights, which had the highest number of customers admitted and higher alcohol sales. The average alcohol sale per customer was also higher during long weekends, and alcohol sales were positively related to problem events. Finally, path analyses revealed that the presence of more bouncers was a deterrent.
CONCLUSIONS
The level of disorder in a bar varies greatly over time. Contrary to what is often postulated, bars are not always high- or low-risk. The results strongly support responsible alcohol-serving policies and highlight the benefits of adequate surveillance.
目的
本文旨在对一家酒吧在较长时间段内的夜间混乱情况进行研究，以便分析随时间（共258个夜晚）的变化情况。
方法
加拿大一家大型夜总会的安保人员同意记录他们所参与的每一次干预的详细信息。保镖们撰写了酒吧内发生的每一起攻击和不文明事件的详细描述。环境特征（如入场人数和酒精饮料销售额）由一位共同作者收集。
结果
观察到了“热闹夜晚”。周二晚上问题事件的数量特别高，当时入场的顾客数量最多，酒精饮料销售额也更高。在长周末期间，每位顾客的平均酒精饮料销售额也更高，并且酒精饮料销售额与问题事件呈正相关。最后，路径分析表明，更多保镖的在场起到了威慑作用。
结论
酒吧内的混乱程度随时间变化很大。与通常的假设相反，酒吧并非总是高风险或低风险场所。这些结果有力地支持了负责任的酒精饮料供应政策，并突出了充分监管的益处。
