“…Of these, three articles were from data collection efforts designed to measure HTO victimization among college students (Diep, Knibbe, Giang, & De Vries, 2015;Hallett et al, 2012;Langley, Kypri, & Stephenson, 2003). Of the 15 other studies, four included brief sections about HTO (i.e., Harvard's College Alcohol Survey, the Canadian Campus Survey, Ireland's College Lifestyle and Altitudinal Survey, and the Study to Prevent Alcohol-Related Consequences), two included brief sections about alcohol-related consequences in which a fewer than five HTO were included (Rinker, Young, Krieger, Lembo, & Neighbors, 2017;Strunin et al, 2014), and eight focused on a few specific HTO (Araas & Adams, 2008;Fair & Vanyur, 2011;Howard, Griffin, & Boekeloo, 2008;Neal & Fromme, 2007;O'Brien et al, 2017;Presley & Pimentel, 2006;Reed, Amaro, Matsumoto, & Kaysen, 2009;Wilhite, Mallard, & Fromme, 2018). As shown in Figure 2, this means most of the research studies on college HTO included fewer than five harms.…”

“…The three devoted studies aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors for HTO among college students (Diep et al, 2015;Hallett et al, 2012;Langley et al, 2003), and one study compared the distribution of HTO among drinkers and non-drinkers (Cabalatungan, 2015). Eleven articles investigated specific populations (e.g., sports fans, athletes), campus settings (e.g., total alcohol bans) or specific HTO (e.g., sexual assault or date fighting) (Fair & Vanyur, 2011;Harford, Wechsler, & Muthen, 2003;Howard et al, 2008;Martin et al, 2009;Neal & Fromme, 2007;O'Brien et al, 2017;Reed et al, 2009;Rhodes et al, 2009;Wechsler, Lee, Gledhill-Hoyt, & Nelson, 2001;Wilhite et al, 2018). Seven articles investigated associations between independent variables (e.g., drinking levels and protective behavioral strategies) and HTO (Abar, Mallett, Turrisi, & Abar, 2016;Araas & Adams, 2008;Cabalatungan & McCarthy, 2015;Nelson, Xuan, Lee, Weitzman, & Wechsler, 2009;Presley & Pimentel, 2006;Weitzman & Chen, 2005).…”

Background: A growing literature shows that drinkers can harm bystanders through alcoholrelated harms to others (HTO). The burden of HTO is particularly consequential in college environments, where heavy alcohol consumption and related harms are highly prevalent. A key limitation to the current literature on HTO among college students is that the determinants of HTO in college settings are not well-described.Objective: This article presents an evidence-and theory-based conceptual framework of HTO among United States college students. Methods:This study used a literature review in Embase, PsycInfo, PubMed, and Web of Science to determine the prevalence of HTO among college students and literature gaps. Researchers supplemented college HTO literature with broader HTO literature to develop a conceptual framework.Results: Prevalence estimates for HTO among college populations range from 59% to 84%. Literature on HTO among college students is mostly confined to brief sections of larger surveys. The college HTO literature lacks the level of detail necessary to support methodologically rigorous research.Conclusions: HTO are prevalent among college populations but their prevalence and etiology are not well understood. This likely leads to systematic undercounting of the impact of alcohol in college settings, exacerbating the "translation" gap between what the research says is effective and what colleges actually do. Better understanding of HTO mechanisms through which drinkers harm those around them would inform alcohol research and policy on college campuses, and lead to more accurate assessments of the degree to which stronger alcohol policies could benefit all students, regardless of their drinking patterns.

“…Alcohol consumption is consistently associated with physical violence across studies ( O’Brien et al, 2017 ; Sabina et al, 2017 ; Schuurman et al, 2015 ), although the magnitude of alcohol consumption varies. This study reported a high proportion (57%) of men aged 15–34 years who consumed alcohol prior to receiving an injury from physical violence.…”

Risk Factors for Violent Injuries and Their Severity Among Men in The Gambia

2018

A matched case-control study was conducted to identify risk factors for injury from physical violence and its severity in Gambian men. Study participants were recruited from eight emergency rooms and outpatient departments in two health administrative regions. Cases were male patients aged ⩾15 years who had been violently injured. A control patient for each case, matched for the hospital or health center, date of injury, gender, and age, was selected from those injured due to nonviolence causes. In total, 447 case-control pairs were recruited. Results of the conditional logistic regression analysis showed that case patients who worked as businessmen (odds ratio [OR], 1.93; 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.16, 3.20]), had monthly household income of ⩾US$311 (OR, 2.12; 95% CI [1.06, 4.24]), had two or more male siblings (OR, 2.20; 95% CI [1.15, 4.21]), had consumed alcohol in the past week (OR, 3.32; 95% CI [1.25, 8.84]), and had been physically abused (OR, 5.10; 95% CI [2.71, 9.62]) or verbally abused (OR, 1.63; 95% CI [1.04, 2.56]) in the past 12 months were significantly associated with the occurrence of injury from physical violence. Severe injuries during the violence were significantly associated with events that took place in public spaces, with certain injury mechanisms (being stabbed/cut/pierced, struck by an object, assaulted by fist punching/leg kicking/head-butting, and scalded/stoned), having injuries to the upper extremities, and smoked cigarettes in the past week. Specific public health programs aimed at preventing physical violence and severe injuries against men should be developed in The Gambia based on modifications of the identified risk factors.

“…Other studies have identified one reason for a higher proportion of men engaging in alcohol drinking: that drinking could serve as a marker of masculinity or male camaraderie. [45][46][47] This may encourage male drinkers to deny or minimize problems resulting from their drinking or to regard drunken behavior as normal or permissible.…”

Background: Alcohol-related ailments are among the 10 leading causes of morbidity and mortality in Bhutan. The objectives of this article were to determine the prevalence and explore the correlates of current alcohol use among Bhutanese adults. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of secondary data from the National Health Survey 2012 of Bhutan. The outcome variable of interest was current alcohol use. The questionnaire was developed following the World Health Organization (WHO) STEPwise approach to Surveillance (STEPS) of noncommunicable diseases. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify the correlates of current alcohol use. The prevalence of current alcohol use was 30.9%. The correlates of current alcohol use were male sex [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.85; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.47–2.36], widowhood (AOR = 2.92, 95% CI, 1.22–6.99), and chewing betel quid >20 times per week (AOR = 2.07, 95% CI, 1.08–4.03). Primary (AOR = 0.67, 95% CI, 0.50–0.91), high (AOR = 0.52, 95% CI, 0.38–0.71), and university (AOR = 0.46, 95% CI, 0.29–0.73) educated participants were less likely to be current alcohol users when compared with those who had no education. Compared with unskilled workers, services and sales workers were less likely to use alcohol regularly (AOR = 0.64, 95% CI, 0.49–0.82). Homemade alcohol Ara was the most common drink. Conclusion: The national prevalence of current alcohol use in Bhutan is higher than the national average in the WHO South-East Asia Region. Prevention should target the correlates and limit the availability of locally home-brewed Ara .
