The article analyzes selected indicators of alcohol use (weekly use, drunkenness within last month) and the ability of adolescents to buy alcohol in Slovakia between 2010 and 2018.
Health Behavior in School-Aged Children (HBSC) is a cross-sectional questionnaire study. A standardized uniform questionnaire was used to create a representative sample of 15-year-old adolescents. Two surveys carried out in Slovakia in 2010 ( = 1568) and 2018 ( = 1298) were analyzed.
Weekly alcohol use and drunkenness declined only in boys, not in girls. Affordability of alcohol (not being prevented from buying it) declined among weekly drinking boys (from 60.4 to 34.1%) but remained almost unchanged in girls from a higher socioeconomic group compared to those from a lower one (57.9% vs. 30.6% in 2018).
Affordability of alcohol in boys decreased with a decline in alcohol use, corresponding with implemented legislative measures. However, it remained unchanged in girls from a higher socioeconomic group.
本文分析了 2010 年至 2018 年期间斯洛伐克青少年饮酒的一些选定指标(每周饮酒、最近一个月内醉酒)和购买酒精的能力。
“青少年健康行为纵向研究(HBSC)”是一项横断面问卷调查研究。采用标准化统一问卷,创建了代表性的 15 岁青少年样本。对 2010 年(=1568 人)和 2018 年(=1298 人)在斯洛伐克进行的两次调查进行了分析。
仅在男孩中,每周饮酒和醉酒的频率下降,而在女孩中没有下降。每周饮酒的男孩购买酒精的可负担性(不被阻止购买)下降(从 60.4%降至 34.1%),但来自较高社会经济群体的女孩与来自较低社会经济群体的女孩相比,其可负担性变化不大(2018 年分别为 57.9%和 30.6%)。
随着饮酒量的减少,男孩购买酒精的可负担性下降,这与实施的立法措施相符。然而,来自较高社会经济群体的女孩的可负担性没有变化。
