To assess the prevalence and pattern of alcohol consumption and its relation to participation in other social activities and problem behaviors among adolescents residing in the People's Republic of China.
Data were collected from a sample of 1,040 students in 6th, 8th, and 10th grades from five public schools in Beijing, China by using a self-administered questionnaire. Chi-square statistics and two-way ANOVA were used to assess the gender and grade difference in lifetime alcohol use of various alcoholic beverages. The age-adjusted and grade-adjusted odds ratio was used to assess the association between alcohol use and selected social activities and problem behaviors.
Approximately 70% of the study sample reported prior alcohol consumption. The rate of drinking among males was significantly higher than among females (78% vs. 61%, p < .00001), and the rates among both genders increased with advancing grade (54%, 72%, and 84%, respectively, p < .001). Beer was the most commonly consumed alcoholic beverage. The results also suggested a progression from beer to wine and/or liquor. Drinking behavior was positively associated with participation in unstructured social activities and other problem behaviors.
Alcohol use was prevalent among adolescents residing in China. The findings underscore the need for and importance of intervention efforts targeting alcohol consumption among early adolescents in China.
评估中华人民共和国青少年饮酒的流行情况和模式，以及饮酒与参与其他社会活动和问题行为之间的关系。
通过自填问卷，从中国北京五所公立学校的6年级、8年级和10年级的1040名学生样本中收集数据。使用卡方统计和双向方差分析来评估不同酒精饮料终生饮酒情况的性别和年级差异。年龄调整和年级调整后的优势比用于评估饮酒与选定的社会活动和问题行为之间的关联。
约70%的研究样本报告曾饮酒。男性饮酒率显著高于女性（78%对61%，p<.00001），且两性饮酒率均随年级升高而增加（分别为54%、72%和84%，p<.001）。啤酒是最常饮用的酒精饮料。结果还表明饮酒模式从啤酒发展到葡萄酒和/或烈酒。饮酒行为与参与无组织的社会活动和其他问题行为呈正相关。
饮酒在中国青少年中很普遍。研究结果强调了针对中国青少年早期饮酒行为进行干预的必要性和重要性。
