[Alcohol drinking among students and behavior disorders]

The study concerns relationship between the amount of consumed alcohol (vodka), related to blood alcohol concentration, and behaviour, 1255 students (670 men and 585 women) were studied. Probable alcohol concentration and resulting behavioral signs were assumed basing of B. Leonhard's model (1983). The analysis of the results revealed that 33% of women and 12% of men did not use vodka. Most proportion of men (about 25%) will have blood alcohol level in the range 0.09-0.12% and similar group (about 25%) will have above 0.3% alcohol in blood judging from the volume of used vodka. Most women (30%) will have alcohol level 0.03% and 0.05%. These alcohol levels will cause a state easily detected by police testing equipment, and presenting in behavioral terms with lowering of self-control and self-criticism. At the same time the person have a feeling of increased efficiency leading to increased risk of traffic and work accidents.
