It is important for anyone working with youngsters, including counselors, physicians, psychiatrists, social workers, school administrators, and parents to familiarize themselves with the prevalence and characteristics of youthful drunkenness. Several attitudes toward this widespread adolescent behaviour are now current--and often in conflict--in our society, including viewing teenage intoxication as a symptom of problem drinking, a warning signal of future alcoholism, a reflection of cultural norms and social changes, and an expression of youthful boisterousness. Tentative conclusions are reached regarding the validity and usefulness of each of these different perspectives of youthful drinking behavior.
对于任何与青少年打交道的人来说，包括顾问、医生、精神科医生、社会工作者、学校管理人员和家长，熟悉青少年醉酒的普遍性和特征都很重要。目前，我们的社会中对这种普遍存在的青少年行为存在几种态度——而且往往相互冲突——包括将青少年醉酒视为饮酒问题的症状、未来酗酒的警示信号、文化规范和社会变化的反映以及青少年喧闹行为的一种表现。关于这些对青少年饮酒行为的不同观点的有效性和实用性，得出了初步结论。
