Abstract

Since the drinking of alcoholic drinks is an important health problem, in order to draw up health education programmes, we must know the diverse factors that characterize the consumption of alcohol in our region. A survey was carried out on 1,404 student from Secondary Schools and University in the city of Zaragoza, by means of a questionnaire "ad hoc" given to sample groups for a period of time lasting from February to March 1989. The consumption of alcohol by young people is characterized by a very notable increase in consumption, when the percentage of consumers drinking in excess is high. In terms of the type of alcoholic drink consumed, those preferred are spirits, then beer, and thirdly wine, and, of course, certain of consumption are influenced by socioeconomic conditions.
