Three years of support are requested to accomplish two related goals. First, and most important, we will determine a more accurate and authoritative time series of U.S. per capita alcohol consumption estimates, 1790-1950, for the population as a whole, as well as various categories. Research over the past two years under the NIAAA-funded Historical Review of Alcohol Abuse and Control (which the proposed staff work on) has revealed that existing time series are seriously flawed in several respects and, as a result, offer a distorted and misleading picture of U.S. consumption trends. Moreover, our review of this terrain indicates a wealth of untapped data exists to rectify this problem. The task requires in-depth research into a wide range of primary source materials, many archival. It also is essential that the process be informed by an understanding of the transformations in patterns of use among the total population and population subgroups. Despite the growth of the social history of alcohol in America, surprising little attention has been paid to consumption itself. Thus, our second goal will be to help fill the existing gaps in knowledge about drinking to more carefully map the major transformations that occurred over this period. This will provide meaning and context to the statistics and shed light on some of the most fundamental questions concerning changes in consumption levels. More specific aims will be to: (a) provide estimates (beverage gallons and absolute alcohol) for five-year intervals for each of the four beverage classes for the total population, for the "drinking age population," and for the "nonabstaining population"; (b) construct a number of similar tables roughly allocating per capita consumption estimates across regions and major social status groups; (c) provide a series of statistical tables of information used in calculating consumption statistics (e.g., production); (d) identify data, sources, and methods for estimating per capita consumption and provide a careful record of how these statistics were calculated; and (e) provide a narrative analysis of the major shifts in consumption in America, including implications of differences between prior estimates and assumptions and our revised series and trend analyses. The results will be published in a series of journal articles, as well as in a companion volume to the Chronology History of Alcohol in America currently being produced by the proposed staff. In addition, the statistical results will be provided to NIAAA's AEDS system.

要求提供三年的支助，以实现两个相关的目标。 首先，也是最重要的，我们将确定一个更准确， 美国人均酒精消费量的权威时间序列 1790年至1950年的人口估计数，以及 类别 在过去两年的研究下，NIAAA资助 酒精滥用和控制的历史回顾（拟议的工作人员 工作）已经揭示，现有的时间序列是严重缺陷， 几个方面，因此，提供了一个扭曲和误导 美国消费趋势图。 此外，我们对这一地区的考察 表明存在大量未开发的数据来纠正这个问题。 这项任务需要深入研究广泛的主要来源 材料，许多档案。 同样重要的是， 通过了解使用模式的转变， 在总人口和人口分组中。 尽管增长 关于美国酒精的社会历史，令人惊讶的是， 都是为了消费本身。 因此，我们的第二个目标将是 有助于填补现有的知识空白，更仔细地喝酒， 描绘出这一时期发生的重大转变。 这将 提供统计数据的含义和背景，并阐明一些 消费水平变化的最基本问题。 更具体的目标将是：（a）提供估计数（饮料加仑数 和无水酒精），每五年为四个 总人口的“饮酒年龄”饮料类别 （B）针对“非弃权群体”构建一个 大致分配人均消费量的类似表格数量 各区域和主要社会地位群体的估计数;（c）提供 用于计算的一系列信息统计表 消费统计（例如，（d）确定数据、来源、 和估计人均消费量的方法，并提供一个仔细的 如何计算这些统计数字的纪录;及（e）提供 对美国消费的主要变化进行了叙述性分析， 包括先前估计数之间差异的影响， 假设和我们的修订系列和趋势分析。 研究结果将发表在一系列期刊文章中， 在《美国酒精编年史》的配套卷中， 目前正在由拟议的工作人员制作。 此外该 统计结果将提供给NIAAA的AEDS系统。
