This study is a "natural experiment," designed to examine the effects and effectiveness of legislation encouraging alcohol server education as a DUI prevention method. It will compare two approaches: (1) state-mandated server education; and (2) server education encouraged by state law providing license protection or liability reduction for participating establishments. We are conducting a preliminary study of the first type, the Oregon law which represents the first and possibly most comprehensive state mandated alcohol server training law in the United States. In the proposed study we will examine the implementation and effects of server education laws in three additional states. Our dependent variables will include: (l) the extent to which servers and managers in alcohol-serving establishments have been trained and retrained, measured by surveys of establishments and by ABC records; (2) knowledge, attitudes, and self- reported practices of samples of alcohol servers in each state regarding responsible alcohol service; (3) adherence to responsible practices and policies in samples of on-sale alcohol-serving establishments in each state, using on-site patron interviews and observations of servers employing pseudopatron methodology; (4) estimates of customer intoxication from patron interviews and BAC testing; (5) effects on DUI arrests, accidents and fatalities since the law went into effect from archival data; (6) comparisons among the state systems and training curricula, (7) impacts upon enforcement activities by the state ABCs, including types of violations and complaints received and investigated since each law went into effect, and (8) effects on dram shop litigation and liquor liability insurance underwriting and premiums. We will extend our study of the Oregon program to its recently legislated duplicate in New Mexico, to the license-protection incentive systems in Alabama, and to the liability-reduction incentive system in Texas. Dependent variables will be compared between the four experimental states and two comparison states with no state law regarding server education.

这项研究是一项“自然实验”，旨在检验效果和 鼓励饮酒教育的立法的有效性 酒后驾车预防方法。它将比较两种方法：（1）国家强制 服务器教育； (2) 州法律鼓励的服务器教育 为参与提供许可保护或减少责任 机构。我们正在进行第一类的初步研究， 俄勒冈州法律代表了第一个且可能是最全面的 美国各州强制执行酒精服务员培训法。在 建议的研究我们将检查服务器的实现和效果 另外三个州的教育法。我们的因变量将 包括： (l) 服务员和管理人员提供酒精饮料的程度 通过调查衡量，各机构已接受过培训和再培训 机构和 ABC 记录； (2) 知识、态度和自我 报告了各州酒类服务员样本的做法 负责任的酒类服务； (3) 坚持负责任的做法和 各地区售酒场所样本中的政策 状态，使用现场顾客访谈和服务器观察 采用伪赞助人方法； (4) 客户的预估 顾客访谈和 BAC 测试导致中毒； (5)对酒后驾车的影响 自该法律生效以来发生的逮捕、事故和死亡事件 档案数据； (六)各国制度和培训的比较 课程，(7) 对州 ABC 执法活动的影响， 包括违规类型以及收到和调查的投诉 自每项法律生效以来，以及 (8) 对酒馆诉讼的影响 以及酒类责任保险的承保和保费。我们将延长 我们对俄勒冈州计划的研究及其最近立法的重复 新墨西哥州、阿拉巴马州的许可证保护激励制度，以及 德克萨斯州的减少责任激励制度。因变量 将在四个实验状态和两个比较之间进行比较 没有关于服务器教育的州法律的州。
