Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the project is to evaluate the effects of the introduction of new mutual alcohol policies in 30 high schools in 2017 on students binge drinking.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In August 2017, 13 high schools in Zealand and all of Funen's 11 high schools and 6 high schools in Ringkøbing introduced new mutual alcohol policy for alcohol on study trips, parties, cafes and other social events.

The background for the introduction of the alcohol policies was the aim of reducing alcohol intake among students and that alcohol should have a less dominant role. By setting the same framework, the alcohol policies aims at promoting community, responsibility and respect.
