Public drinking environments like bars are understudied but epidemiologically significant. Prevention programs focusing on these settings, especially server intervention, show promise for reducing alcohol-related harm and impaired driving.

Area of Science:

  • Public health
  • Epidemiology
  • Alcohol research

Background:

  • Drinking in public establishments is an under-researched area with significant public health implications.
  • Existing research has primarily focused on general population surveys and observational studies in bars and taverns.
  • Understanding public drinking environments is crucial for developing effective alcohol control strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To summarize findings on the correlates of tavern patronage and public drinking behaviors.
  • To describe recent advancements in the control of public drinking.
  • To advocate for increased focus on environmental prevention strategies in alcohol control.

Main Methods:

  • Review of observational studies conducted in bars and taverns.
