| Opis: | Aims: Alcohol consumption is a well-established risk factor for health problems such as cancer; yet, public health campaigns haveshownmixedresultsintheir effectivenesstoreducealcoholuse.Drawingonthehealthbeliefmodel,thisstudyexamines adolescents’ self-reported alcohol consumption and explores drivers and barriers to abstaining from orreducingtheiralcohol consumption, withtheultimategoalofreducingalcohol-attributable cancers. Method: A large-scale, cross-sectional and cross-national online survey was conducted in 2024 among N=4054 adolescents between 12 and 18 years, chiefly recruited through schools, in eight Eur opean countries (Belgium, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Romania,Slovenia, Spain, andSwitzerland). Results: Results indicate that 47.5% of adolescents reported never consuming alcohol. Alcohol use increased with age and country differences were observed, while we found no differences in gender. Among the 52.5% participants who reported drinking alcohol, the average intention to reduce consumption was moderate. Adolescents who drank more frequently were less inclined to reduce their alcohol use. Int ention to reduce drinking decreased with age. Perceived benefits of alcohol reduction followed by self-efficacy were the strongest predictors of this intention. Conclusions: The study’s results provide valuable insights into adolescent alcohol consumption across Europe, leading to the formulation of concrete guidelines for future prevention campaigns regarding target groups (e.g. age, country), messaging, and framing.Specifically,futurealcoholpreventioncampaignscouldemphasizelong-termhealthbenefitsandaimtoincrease adolesc ents’ perceptions of self-efficacy to refrain from initiating or to reduce alcohol consumption. |
