Rates, patterns and determinants of alcohol’s harm to others: a cross-national comparative study

酒精会对饮酒者及其周围的人造成伤害，包括配偶、子女、家人、朋友、同事和陌生人。世卫组织正在7个国家（智利、尼日利亚、斯里兰卡、印度、泰国、老挝和越南）推广澳大利亚和新西兰关于酒精对他人危害的工作。我们的目标是分析来自九个国家的数据集，并比较不同文化之间和文化内部问题的严重程度和模式-确定减少他人饮酒危害的机会。

Alcohol causes harms to drinkers, and others around them, including spouses, children, family, friends, workmates and strangers. Australian and New Zealand work on alcohol’s harm to others is being replicated by the WHO in 7 countries (Chile, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam). We aim to analyse datasets from nine countries and compare the magnitude and patterning of problems across and within cultures – identifying opportunities for reducing harm from others’ drinking.
