目的:检查持牌零售机构遵守未成年人销售法是否与未成年人使用商业和社会酒类来源、感知获得酒精的容易程度和酒精使用有关。方法:2005年,在俄勒冈州43个学区的403家非营业场所持牌零售机构进行了酒精购买调查。该学区的3332名11年级学生也接受了一项调查。结果:学区级酒类销售率与学生使用商业酒类和社会酒类、饮酒行为无直接关系,与学生使用商业酒类和社会酒类有直接关系。其他分析表明,与其他预测因素相比,饮酒行为与社交饮酒来源的使用之间存在更强的关联。这些分析也支持了学区级酒精销售率和酒精使用行为之间的间接联系。结论:持牌零售机构遵守未成年人酒精销售法可能会间接影响未成年人饮酒,这是通过影响未成年人使用商业酒精来源和获得酒精的便利性而实现的。然而,与使用商业酒精来源和人们认为的容易获得酒精相比,使用社交酒精来源与未成年人饮酒的相关性更强。(C)2007年青春期医学会。版权所有。
Purpose: To examine whether compliance with underage sales laws by licensed retail establishments is related to underage use of commercial and social alcohol sources, perceived ease of obtaining alcohol, and alcohol use.Methods: In 2005, alcohol purchase surveys were conducted at 403 off-premise licensed retail establishments in 43 Oregon school districts. A survey also was administered to 3,332 11th graders in the districts. Multi-level logistic regression analyses were used to examine relationships between the school district-level alcohol sales rate and students' use of commercial and social alcohol sources, perceived ease of obtaining alcohol, past-30-day alcohol use, and heavy drinking.Results: The school district-level alcohol sales rate was positively related to students' use of commercial alcohol sources and perceived alcohol availability, but was not directly associated with use of social alcohol sources and drinking behaviors. Additional analyses indicated stronger associations between drinking behaviors and use of social alcohol sources relative to other predictors. These analyses also provided support for an indirect association between the school district-level alcohol sales rate and alcohol use behaviors.Conclusions: Compliance with underage alcohol sales laws by licensed retail establishments may affect underage alcohol use indirectly, through its effect on underage use of commercial alcohol sources and perceived ease of obtaining alcohol. However, use of social alcohol sources is more strongly related to underage drinking than use of commercial alcohol sources and perceived ease of obtaining alcohol.
