Abstract

A questionnaire-based interview on alcohol drinking pattern in a random sample of 4,016 men and 4,179 women in 1992 was compared to an identical interview from 1979. In coherence with alcohol sale statistics, the average alcohol intake was unchanged in the population. Nevertheless, during the period drinking patterns have changed among Danes. Thus, 20 to 39 year-olds drank less, 40 to 59 years-olds drank more, fewer Danes drank during daytime, and fewer drank on weekdays at the second survey.
