BackgroundOur目标是调查的作用，顺应政策变化的行为在调解酒精消费量之间的关系，在关闭和对处所，年龄和2个措施的社会经济地位（教育和收入）methodsA横截面一般人群调查进行了分析，通过使用贝叶斯路径分析，以了解直接和中介途径。共有1,900名饮酒者（过去6个月），年龄在18至65岁之间，居住在有固定电话的家庭中，参加了这项研究。采取的措施如下：每次饮酒的典型数量，饮酒的频率，关闭和前提;性别，年龄组;和受教育年限，个人收入，支付的价格，购买时间，和喜欢酒精advertises.ResultsLater时间购买预测更大的消费量（上和下的前提）和更频繁的饮酒（前提）。年轻人和男性购买较晚，这调解了他们更重的消费。支付较低的价格预示着更大的消费量（前提）和更高的饮酒频率（前提外）。年轻和男性受访者支付较低的价格，这介导了更大的消费量和更频繁的饮酒。受教育程度较低的人支付的价格较低，这导致这一群体更频繁地在户外饮酒。喜欢酒精广告预测饮酒量更大，频率更高，无论是关闭和前提。年轻和男性受访者报告更喜欢广告，这介导了他们的消费量更大，更频繁地饮酒，无论是在现场还是在场外。那些收入较高的前提下喝了大量的，更频繁的和关闭，但有没有中介效应的政策相关的variables. Conclusions较重的饮酒模式的年轻人和那些受过良好教育的人可以改善注意酒精政策。
BackgroundOur goal was to investigate the role of behaviors amenable to policy change in mediating the relationship between alcohol consumption in off and on premises, age, and 2 measures of socioeconomic status (education and income).MethodsA cross-sectional general population survey was analyzed by using Bayesian path analysis to understand direct and mediating pathways. A total of 1,900 drinkers (past 6 months), aged 18 to 65 years, living in households with landline phones participated in the study. Measures were as follows: typical quantities of alcohol consumed per occasion, frequency of drinking, both off and on premise; gender, age groups; and years of education, personal income, prices paid, time of purchase, and liking for alcohol advertisements.ResultsLater times of purchase predicted larger quantities consumed (on and off premise) and more frequent drinking (on premise only). Younger people and males purchased later, and this mediated their heavier consumption. Lower prices paid predicted larger quantities consumed (on premise) and higher frequency of drinking (off premise). Younger and male respondents paid lower prices, and this mediated larger quantities consumed on premise and more frequent drinking off premise. Less well educated paid lower prices, and this mediated drinking more frequently off premise among this group. Liking for alcohol ads predicted drinking larger quantities and higher frequency both off and on premise. Younger and male respondents reported greater liking for ads, and this mediated their consumption of larger quantities and more frequent drinking both on and off premise. Those with higher income drank larger amounts on premise and more frequently on and off, but there were no mediating effects from the policy-relevant variables.ConclusionsHeavier drinking patterns by young people and those less well educated could be ameliorated by attention to alcohol policy.
