Abstract
By administration of an anonymous questionnaire, the authors investigated the consumption af alcohol by high school and university students in some cities of Marches region (central Italy). The results showed a tendency for spirits to be drunk at a relatively early age (ca 20% of the sample), and that the alcoholic drink most consumed was beer (72% of the sample), especially outside meals (54% of cases); instead, wine was consumed by 61% of those interviewed, above all during meals (53% of cases). The majority of the students proved to have no real knowledge either of the direct effects of alcohol on helath, or of the direct and indirect psychophysical consequences of alcohol abuse. It's very important an educational system especially aside Scholastic institutions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
