This data note draws upon the National Longitudinal Survey (NLS) of Labor Market Experience in Youth beginning at ages 17-24 to describe the stability and prevalence of alcohol use over a 6-year period up to ages 23-30. Approximately 70% of men and 58% of women maintained their drinking status throughout the study. The onset of current and heavier drinking decreased with increasing age while the offset of current and heavier drinking increased with increasing age. The absence of current drinking was unrelated to age for both men and women as was the presence of heavier drinking among men.
本数据说明借鉴了青年劳动力市场经历全国纵向调查(NLS),该调查始于17至24岁,用于描述在长达6年的时间里(直至23至30岁)酒精使用的稳定性和普遍性。在整个研究过程中,约70%的男性和58%的女性保持了饮酒状态。当前及更大量饮酒的开始随年龄增长而减少,而当前及更大量饮酒的停止则随年龄增长而增加。男性和女性当前不饮酒的情况与年龄无关,男性中更大量饮酒的情况也与年龄无关。
