This study investigated whether the number of alcohol outlets per 10,000 population in a given area (density) influenced parental supply of alcohol to adolescents; differences in Australian born and acculturating parents were also examined. A state-representative student survey in Victoria identified that the majority of adolescents (55%) reported that they had used alcohol in the past 12months; 34 % of those who had consumed alcohol reported that it had been supplied by their parents. Multilevel modelling identified that there were no overall effects of density, however there were different effects based on parent country of birth and type of license. Specifically, each unit increase in the density of takeaway liquor stores increased the likelihood by 2.03 that children with both Australian-born parents would be supplied alcohol. Adolescents with both migrant parents on the other hand, had a 1.36 increased risk of being supplied alcohol as the density of outlets requiring at-venue consumption increased. The findings of this study suggest that in Australia, alcohol outlet density is associated with parental supply of alcohol to children, with this effect moderated by the cultural background of the parent and type of outlet density. Future research should investigate the association between the density of alcohol outlets and public approval of parents supplying alcohol to adolescents.
本研究调查了特定地区每万人口中酒精销售点的数量(密度)是否会影响父母向青少年提供酒精饮料的情况;同时也考察了在澳大利亚出生的父母和文化适应中的父母之间的差异。在维多利亚州进行的一项具有全州代表性的学生调查发现,大多数青少年(55%)报告称他们在过去12个月内饮酒;在饮酒的青少年中,34%报告称酒精是由父母提供的。多层次模型分析表明,密度并没有总体影响,但根据父母的出生国家和执照类型会有不同的影响。具体而言,外卖酒类商店密度每增加一个单位,父母均为澳大利亚出生的孩子获得酒精饮料供应的可能性就增加2.03倍。另一方面,随着需要现场消费的销售点密度增加,父母均为移民的青少年获得酒精饮料供应的风险增加1.36倍。本研究结果表明,在澳大利亚,酒精销售点密度与父母向孩子提供酒精饮料有关,这种影响因父母的文化背景和销售点密度类型而有所缓和。未来的研究应调查酒精销售点密度与公众对父母向青少年提供酒精饮料的认可之间的关联。
