Youth Drinking: the Effects of Alcohol Control Policies and Adult Drinking Patterns
The purpose of this study is to determine the association between alcohol control policies, including those that are adult-oriented and youth-specific, and youth drinking behaviors, the association between adult drinking behaviors and youth drinking behaviors, the association between adult-oriented alcohol policies and adult drinking behaviors, and whether adult-oriented alcohol control policies protect against youth drinking.
