背景：尽管酒精在大多数西方社会已被社会接受，但研究清楚其相关的负面后果，特别是在大学生中。然而，关于酒精相关后果与饮料类型和饮酒开始之间关系的研究很少，特别是在欧洲。因此，这项研究的目的有两个：（1）饮料类型与学生经历的负面后果之间有什么关系？ (2) 这些后果是由早期饮酒决定的吗？我们将在广泛的与酒精相关的后果的背景下研究这些问题。方法：分析基于大学间项目“头在云中？”收集的数据，该项目测量了法兰德斯（比利时）学生的酒精使用情况。总共有一个由 19,253 名匿名参与学生的信息组成的大型数据集。使用缩短版的核心酒精和药物调查（CADS_D）来衡量负面后果。使用负二项式回归分析数据。 结果：结果因酒精相关后果的类型而异：个人负面后果在日常啤酒饮用者中经常发生。然而，对于每天喝啤酒和每天喝烈酒的人来说，社会负面后果的发生率很高。最后，过早饮酒与个人和社会负面后果显着相关，尤其是啤酒和烈酒饮酒与社会负面后果之间的关联尤其强烈。结论：个人和社会的许多负面后果与频繁饮用啤酒和烈酒有关。我们的研究结果表明，喝啤酒与个人负面后果之间以及饮用啤酒和/或烈酒与社会负面后果之间存在密切联系。同样，过早饮酒对个人和社会负面后果的发生率也有重大影响。学生越早开始饮酒，他们在大学期间经历的负面后果就越多。讨论了几种（政策）干预措施。这项研究首次纳入了关于饮料类型和饮酒开始的详细信息，以及通过 CADS_D 在大量学生群体中测量的相关负面后果。
Background: Although alcohol is socially accepted in most Western societies, studies are clear about its associated negative consequences, especially among university and college students. Studies on the relationship between alcohol-related consequences and both beverage type and drinking onset, however, are scarce, especially in a European context. The aim of this research was, therefore, twofold: (1) What is the relationship between beverage type and the negative consequences experienced by students? and (2) Are these consequences determined by early drinking onset? We will examine these questions within the context of a wide range of alcohol-related consequences.Methods: The analyses are based on data collected by the inter-university project 'Head in the clouds?', measuring alcohol use among students in Flanders (Belgium). In total, a large dataset consisting of information from 19,253 anonymously participating students was available. Negative consequences were measured using a shortened version of the Core Alcohol and Drug Survey (CADS_D). Data were analysed using negative binomial regression.Results: Results vary depending on the type of alcohol-related consequences: Personal negative consequences occur frequently among daily beer drinkers. However, a high rate of social negative consequences was recorded for both daily beer drinkers and daily spirits drinkers. Finally, early drinking onset was significantly associated with both personal and social negative consequences, and this association was especially strong between beer and spirits drinking onset and social negative consequences.Conclusions: Numerous negative consequences, both personal and social, are related to frequent beer and spirits drinking. Our findings indicate a close association between drinking beer and personal negative consequences as well as between drinking beer and/or spirits and social negative consequences. Similarly, early drinking onset has a major influence on the rates of both personal and social negative consequences. The earlier students started drinking, the more negative consequences they experienced during college or university. Several (policy) interventions are discussed. This study is the first to incorporate detailed information on both beverage type and drinking onset, and its associated negative consequences, as measured by the CADS_D, in a large student population.
