This article provides information on the amount of alcohol consumed by students during college sports events. It examines the relationship between alcohol consumption and the rank of the match, sex of the players (male vs. female league), and sex of the spectators.
The study was carried out during an interdepartmental volleyball championship (cup system) at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn (Poland), which included 16 matches (in both male and female leagues). The research sample consisted of 2,683 students between ages 19 and 24 years (including 1,768 men and 915 women) who came to cheer on their peers at the matches. Two objective measurements of alcohol consumption were used: (a) the number of empty alcohol packages left behind by the spectators at the sports facilities after each match and (b) breath alcohol analysis tests given to volunteering spectators after each match (in which 323 persons consented to participate).
Male league games were accompanied by more alcohol consumption than were female league games, and male spectators drank more than female spectators. The most drinking occurred among men watching the male league, and the least amount of drinking occurred among women watching the female league. Alcohol intoxication increased with the rank of the match mostly among men watching the male league.
The sex of players and spectators seems to be a mediating factor in the relationship between the rank of a match and the amount of alcohol consumed.
本文提供了有关大学生在体育赛事期间饮酒量的信息。它研究了饮酒量与比赛级别、运动员性别(男子联赛与女子联赛)以及观众性别的关系。
该研究在波兰奥尔什丁瓦尔米亚-马祖里大学的一场系际排球锦标赛(杯赛制)期间进行,其中包括16场比赛(男子和女子联赛均有)。研究样本包括2683名年龄在19至24岁之间的学生(其中1768名男性和915名女性),他们前来为比赛中的同龄人加油助威。采用了两种客观的饮酒量测量方法:(a) 每场比赛后观众在体育设施留下的空酒精包装数量;(b) 每场比赛后对自愿参与的观众进行呼气酒精分析测试(其中323人同意参与)。
男子联赛比赛的饮酒量比女子联赛比赛更多,男性观众比女性观众饮酒更多。饮酒最多的是观看男子联赛的男性,饮酒最少的是观看女子联赛的女性。酒精中毒情况随着比赛级别增加,主要出现在观看男子联赛的男性中。
运动员和观众的性别似乎是比赛级别与饮酒量之间关系的一个中介因素。
