Abstract

INTRODUCTION AND AIMS

Enforcement of liquor licensing laws is limited by inadequate police information systems. This study aimed to: (i) determine the effectiveness of an intervention in facilitating police recording of the alcohol consumption characteristics of people involved in assaults; and (ii) describe such characteristics by geographic area and setting of alcohol consumption.

DESIGN AND METHODS

A stepped wedge trial was conducted across New South Wales, Australia. An intervention to facilitate police recording of alcohol consumption information for people involved in incidents was implemented. For people involved in an assault the proportion for which alcohol consumption information was recorded was assessed. The proportion of assaults that were alcohol related, the proportions of people that consumed alcohol prior to the assault, were intoxicated, and had consumed alcohol in various settings, are described.

RESULTS

Post-intervention, alcohol consumption information was recorded for 85-100% of people involved in an assault incident. The proportion of incidents recorded as alcohol-related increased significantly (26-44.5%; P < 0.0001). The proportion of assaults classified as alcohol related was significantly greater in regional/rural areas (50-47%) than in metropolitan areas (38%). More people in metropolitan areas (54%) consumed alcohol on licensed premises prior to an assault than in regional/rural areas (39-42%), with approximately 70% of persons intoxicated regardless of setting of alcohol consumption. Twenty per cent of premises accounted for 60% of assaults linked to licensed premises.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS

The intervention was effective in enhancing the recording of alcohol-related information for assault incidents. Such information could enhance targeted policing of liquor licensing laws.

摘要

引言与目的

酒类许可法律的执行因警方信息系统不完善而受到限制。本研究旨在：（i）确定一项干预措施在促进警方记录参与袭击事件人员饮酒特征方面的有效性；（ii）按饮酒的地理区域和场所描述此类特征。

设计与方法

在澳大利亚新南威尔士州进行了一项阶梯式楔形试验。实施了一项干预措施，以促进警方记录事件相关人员的饮酒信息。评估了参与袭击事件人员中记录饮酒信息的比例。描述了与酒精相关的袭击事件比例、袭击前饮酒的人员比例、醉酒的人员比例以及在不同场所饮酒的人员比例。

结果

干预后，参与袭击事件的人员中有85% - 100%的饮酒信息被记录。记录为与酒精相关的事件比例显著增加（从26%增至44.5%；P < 0.0001）。与酒精相关的袭击事件比例在地区/农村地区（50% - 47%）显著高于大都市地区（38%）。大都市地区更多的人（54%）在袭击前在有执照的场所饮酒，高于地区/农村地区（39% - 42%），无论饮酒场所如何，约70%的人醉酒。20%的场所发生的袭击事件占与有执照场所有关的袭击事件的60%。

讨论与结论

该干预措施在加强对袭击事件中与酒精相关信息的记录方面是有效的。此类信息可加强对酒类许可法律的针对性治安管理。[威格斯JH，哈克A，金斯兰M，勒卡泰利奈斯C，廷德尔J，鲍曼JA，沃尔芬登L。促进警方记录袭击事件中与酒精相关的特征：一项阶梯式楔形实施试验。《药物与酒精评论》2015年；00:000 - 000]
