Researchers investigated alcohol usage, psychological health status, and alcohol-associated concerns among university students.
By Pooja Toshniwal PahariaAug 22 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study posted to the Research Square* preprint server, researchers investigated alcohol usage, psychological health status, and alcohol-associated concerns among university students during the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 pandemic in Hong Kong.
University attendees are more susceptible to these risks due to social gatherings, peer pressures, and increased academic stress levels associated with examinations. Depression and anxiety symptoms were assessed using the two-item Patient Health Questionnaire and the General Anxiety Disorder-2 scales. In addition, sociodemographic data and alcohol consumption behaviors were analyzed.
Among the participants, 48% were male, 75% perceived their family affluence as at least average, 69.0% practiced binge drinking, 68% were below the legal age for drinking, 29% drank heavily in the previous month, and 38% reported an increase in alcohol intake during COVID-19.
