The main objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between structured, unstructured, and family leisure activities on the frequency of adolescent alcohol intake across three different countries (Spain, Peru, and The Netherlands). The self-control of adolescents was also investigated as a moderator in the relationship between leisure activities and alcohol consumption.
This research involved 4608 adolescents aged between 12 and 17 from three countries (Spain, Peru, and The Netherlands). In Spain and Peru, data was collected through a self-report questionnaire which was part of the Your Life project. In The Netherlands, a self-questionnaire was used, collected by the University of Utrecht. A multiple logistic regression was performed for each country.
The results showed that participation in unstructured leisure activities increased the likelihood of drinking more frequently and more heavily in all three countries. Structured leisure activities, in general, did not have a significant predictive effect on alcohol consumption in any of the countries. Family leisure activities reduced the risk of engaging in yearly alcohol use and yearly binge drinking among adolescents, especially in The Netherlands and Spain. The protective effect of family leisure and unstructured leisure risk on yearly alcohol use applied especially to Dutch adolescents with a low level of self-control.
The article emphasizes the need for parents to engage in leisure activities with their child; participation in unstructured activities is not to be encouraged.
本研究的主要目的是分析结构化、非结构化和家庭休闲活动与青少年饮酒频率之间的关系，研究对象来自三个不同的国家（西班牙、秘鲁和荷兰）。本研究还探讨了青少年的自我控制能力在休闲活动与饮酒之间的关系中作为调节变量的作用。
本研究涉及来自三个国家（西班牙、秘鲁和荷兰）的 4608 名 12 至 17 岁的青少年。在西班牙和秘鲁，数据是通过参与“你的生活”项目的自我报告问卷收集的。在荷兰，使用的是由乌得勒支大学收集的自我问卷。对每个国家都进行了多次逻辑回归分析。
结果表明，在所有三个国家，参与非结构化休闲活动都会增加青少年更频繁和更大量饮酒的可能性。一般来说，结构化休闲活动对任何一个国家的饮酒量都没有显著的预测作用。家庭休闲活动降低了青少年每年饮酒和每年狂饮的风险，特别是在荷兰和西班牙。家庭休闲和非结构化休闲风险对每年饮酒的保护作用尤其适用于自我控制能力较低的荷兰青少年。
本文强调了父母与孩子一起参与休闲活动的必要性；不鼓励参与非结构化活动。
