在发展中国家,酒精使用增加了包括酒精依赖在内的创伤和疾病风险,从而导致发病率和死亡率升高。我们在南非东北部农村进行了一项具有当地代表性的横断面调查,测试了社区集体效能和酒精出口密度与年轻男性饮酒之间的关系。非正式的社会控制和凝聚力与男性大量饮酒表现出保护性联系,而酒精出口密度与更多潜在问题饮酒有关。这些发现为在社区一级进行干预以促进减少酒精提供了初步支持。(C) 2015年作者。Elsevier Ltd.出版。
Alcohol use contributes to morbidity and mortality in developing countries by increasing the risk of trauma and disease, including alcohol dependence. Limited research addresses determinants of alcohol use beyond the individual level in sub-Saharan Africa We test the association of community collective efficacy and alcohol outlet density with young men's drinking in a cross-sectional, locally representative survey conducted in rural northeast South Africa. Informal social control and cohesion show protective associations with men's heavy drinking, while alcohol outlet density is associated with more potential problem drinking. These Findings provide initial support for intervening at the community level to promote alcohol reduction. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
