Results: Greater enactment of the PBS that has previously been found to be associated with reduced alcohol use (‘Count your drinks’) was found among older respondents and those with lower levels of alcohol consumption. Older respondents were also more likely to enact two of the three PBSs that have been found to be associated with increased alcohol consumption (‘Use a designated driver’ and ‘Leave drinking venues at a pre-determined time’). Conclusions/Importance: Results suggest that enactment of specific PBSs may differ according to the individual-level variables of gender, age, and preferred beverage type, and the environmental-level variable of attendance at licensed premises. Randomized trials investigating the effectiveness of PBS interventions among drinker subgroups are needed to determine the extent to which enactment reduces alcohol consumption and alcohol-related harm and whether effects are moderated by the variables assessed in this study.]]> Tue 29 Nov 2022 11:13:26 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:46277 n= 14996) and (2) cases of assault recorded by NZ Police from 2012 to 2018. Intervention: introduction of national maximum trading hours for all on‐licence (8 a.m.–4 a.m.) and off‐licence premises (7 a.m.–11 p.m.), abolishing existing 24‐hour licences, on 18 December 2013. Measurements: (1) Age‐specific incidence of hospitalization for assault on Friday, Saturday or Sunday from the national hospital discharge data set, excluding short‐stay emergency department admissions and (2) proportion of weekly police‐documented assaults occurring between 9 p.m. and 5.59 a.m., from NZ Police Demand and Activity data set. Findings: Following the restrictions, weekend hospitalized assaults declined by 11% [incidence rate ratio(IRR) = 0.89; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.84, 0.94], with the greatest reduction among 15–29‐year‐olds(IRR = 0.82; 95% CI = 0.76, 0.89). There was an absolute reduction (step change) of 1.8% (95% CI = 0.2, 3.5%) in the proportion of police‐documented assaults occurring at night, equivalent to 9.70 (95% CI = 0.10, 19.30) fewer night‐time assaults per week, out of 207.4. Conclusions: The 2013 implementation of national maximum trading hours for alcohol in NZ was followed by reductions in two complementary indicators of alcohol‐related assault, consistent with beneficial effects of modest nation‐wide restrictions on the late‐night availability of alcohol.]]> Tue 29 Aug 2023 15:06:37 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:53677 Tue 09 Jan 2024 12:52:55 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35768 Tue 06 Jun 2023 13:29:56 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:51447 Tue 05 Sep 2023 17:54:16 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:46524 Tue 05 Sep 2023 14:38:18 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:33641 Tue 03 Sep 2019 18:17:59 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:33366 Tue 03 Sep 2019 18:00:36 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35233 Tue 02 Jul 2019 12:19:43 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26789 Tue 01 May 2018 15:44:52 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:50047 Thu 29 Jun 2023 15:06:42 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:45356 Thu 27 Oct 2022 16:12:44 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:43039 4 standard drinks on a single occasion), and (ii) the total number of alcoholic drinks consumed in the past year, adjusted for a range of potential child, parent, family, and peer covariates. Results: Fifty percent of adolescents reported alcohol use and 36% reported bingeing at wave 5 (mean age 16.9 years), and the mean age of initiation to alcohol use for drinkers was 15.1 years. Age of initiation was significantly associated with binge drinking and total quantity of alcohol consumed in unadjusted and adjusted models. Age of first drunkenness was associated with total quantity of alcohol consumed in unadjusted models but not adjusted models and was not associated with subsequent bingeing. Conclusions: Initiating alcohol use earlier in adolescence is associated with an increased risk of binge drinking and higher quantity of consumption in late secondary school, supporting an argument for delaying alcohol initiation for as long as possible to reduce the risk for problematic use in later adolescence and the alcohol-related harms that may accompany this use.]]> Thu 24 Aug 2023 09:26:02 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:38460 Thu 18 Nov 2021 10:00:50 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:38679 Thu 16 Dec 2021 10:43:19 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26866 Thu 14 Oct 2021 14:46:38 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:40071 Thu 14 Jul 2022 14:49:13 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26803 Thu 14 Apr 2022 11:02:21 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49317 Thu 11 May 2023 14:53:09 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:42382 Thu 08 Jun 2023 13:31:17 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:36079 5 times daily during their first pregnancy at greater risk of having a stillbirth (aOR 5.89; 95% CI 1.70, 20.3) than less frequent users (aOR 1.67; 95% CI 0.65, 4.29).

Multinomial logistic analyses compared adolescents who had only had a sip/taste of alcohol (sippers) with adolescents who had consumed at least a whole drink (drinkers) in the past 6 months. The multivariate model assessed a broad range of demographics, parenting practices, peer influences, and adolescent externalizing and internalizing behaviors, and controlled for school clustering. Results: Compared to drinkers, sippers were less likely to come from 1-parent households (odds ratio [OR] = 0.59, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.35 to 0.98); less likely to come from low-socioeconomic status (SES) households (OR = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.31 to 0.94); more likely to come from families where parents provide stricter alcohol-specific rules (OR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.11 to 1.32), stricter monitoring of the child's activities (OR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.16), more consistent parenting practices (OR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.05 to 1.23), and more positive family relationships (OR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.02 to 2.43); and report having fewer substance-using peers (OR = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.70 to 0.91) and greater peer disapproval of any substance use (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.19 to 1.42). After adjustment for confounders, the associations with household composition and SES were no longer significant, but the familial and peer associations remained significant in the multivariate analysis, X²(40) = 1,493.06, p < 0.001. Conclusions: Sipping alcohol has different associations with known predictors of adolescent alcohol use than drinking whole beverages, and sipping may be a distinct or separable behavior. Future research should better define quantities of early consumption and assess the relationship between early sipping and drinking on long-term outcomes separately.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:50:38 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26831 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:50 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26805 0.25) compared with increases observed in 20- to 21-year-old Maori males.

Results: Combining sipping and drinking into a single category, lifetime consumption was reported by 67.3% of the present sample. Distinguishing lifetime consumption by sipping and drinking: only 7.8% of adolescents had consumed a whole beverage; the remaining 59.6% had only sipped. Consumption of whole beverages was mostly limited to 1 to 2 drinks (84.2% of drinkers). Sipping and drinking were also infrequent: 78.2% of sipping and 60.4% of drinking, occurred less than monthly. Heavy episodic consumption was uncommon (1.2% of the sample). When other population studies were inspected, a clear trend for higher drinking rates were found in those studies where sipping was counted as drinking and vice versa. Conclusions: Consumption of whole beverages appears infrequent in early adolescence, as sipping, but not drinking, was common in our sample. Comparing the present data with international population consumption measures highlights the need to more precisely measure and report adolescent consumption, particularly in relation to sipping.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:04 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26234 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26230 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26241 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:24:03 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:23067 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:26 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:24608 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:55 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:24094 adj = 24%; 95% CI = 12-37%) and on Tuesdays: 43-58% (difference_adj = 14%; 95% CI = 1-28%).

Results: In Groups A and B, respectively, means (and SDs) of the number of days drinking were 5.89 (5.92) versus 6.06 (6.12), p = .49; typical number of drinks per drinking day: 4.02 (3.87) versus 3.82 (3.76), p = .17; and number of days consuming six or more drinks: 1.69 (2.94) versus 1.67 (3.25), p = .56. Conclusions: We could not reject the null hypothesis because earlier questions about alcohol dependence and problems showed no sign of biasing the respondents’ subsequent reports of alcohol consumption. These data support the validity of university students’ reporting of alcohol consumption in web-based studies.]]> Fri 22 Apr 2022 10:24:39 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26804 Fri 22 Apr 2022 10:24:08 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:21232 Fri 16 Aug 2024 16:04:51 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:16544 Fri 16 Aug 2024 13:16:36 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:38570 Fri 12 Nov 2021 12:46:53 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49417 Fri 12 May 2023 15:02:11 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:49348 0.02 g/dL (which we defined as 'probable impairment') was detected in 178 drivers (11%), while 67 (4.2%) exceeded the legal limit of 0.08 g/dL. Probable impairment was more common in men, older drivers, on Tuesdays (versus Fridays or Saturdays) and later at night. Conclusion: Drink-driving is very common at night-time in Bhutan. Routine roadside random breath-testing, and media campaigns emphasising the risk of apprehension and consequent serious financial and social penalties, should be considered to deter drink-driving.]]> Fri 12 May 2023 11:32:11 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:38575 n = 1813) were used to model latent class alcohol use trajectories over 5 annual follow-ups (mean age = 13.9 until 17.8 years). Regression models were used to determine whether child, parent, and peer factors at baseline (mean age = 12.9 years) predicted trajectory membership and whether trajectories predicted self-reported symptoms of AUD at the final follow-up (mean age = 18.8 years). RESULTS: We identified 4 classes: abstaining (n = 352); late-onset moderate drinking (n = 503); early-onset moderate drinking (n = 663); and early-onset heavy drinking (n = 295). Having more alcohol-specific household rules reduced risk of early-onset heavy drinking compared with late-onset moderate drinking (relative risk ratio: 0.31; 99.5% confidence interval [CI]: 0.11-0.83), whereas having more substance-using peers increased this risk (relative risk ratio: 3.43; 99.5% CI: 2.10-5.62). Early-onset heavy drinking increased odds of meeting criteria for AUD in early adulthood (odds ratio: 7.68; 99.5% CI: 2.41-24.47). CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides evidence that parenting factors and peer influences in early adolescence should be considered to reduce risk of later alcohol-related harm. Early initiation and heavy alcohol use throughout adolescence are associated with increased risk of alcohol-related harm compared with recommended maximum levels of consumption (late-onset, moderate drinking).]]> Fri 05 Nov 2021 16:20:07 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:45762 Fri 04 Nov 2022 11:02:02 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:30953 Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:35:52 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:37361 Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:33:18 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:33754 Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:33:03 AEDT ]]>
