Peer overestimation, social identification, and Personalized Normative Feedback in brief alcohol interventions
Personalized Normative Feedback (PNF) is a widely used component of brief interventions (BI). However, little is known about the moderators that may enhance its effectiveness. To examine whether the overestimation of peers' drinking and social identification with them moderate the efficacy of PNF as a component of BI, we conducted a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial. We included 806 students who reported high-risk drinking and ran…
The Role of Personalized Normative Feedback in the Efficacy of Brief Intervention Among Argentinian University Students
Background: Personalized Normative Feedback (PNF) aims to modify misperceptions about peer consumption that influence one’s drinking. PNF is usually a component in Brief Interventions delivered to university students. Despite this, whether PNF contributes to improving the effect of brief interventions is unclear. Objectives: This randomized controlled trial aimed to determine the role of PNF as an active ingredient in a face-to-face motivational …

Road traffic injury risk from alcohol and cannabis use among emergency department patients in Argentina
Objective. To report the risk from alcohol, cannabis, and their combined use for non-fatal road traffic injuries for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians. Methods. Risk was estimated using the case-crossover method. Participants (N= 306) were injured patients from an emergency department in Mar del Plata, Argentina. Results. Alcohol use (OR= 6.78, CI 95% 3.75-12.25) as well as combined alcohol and cannabis use (OR= 7.05, CI 95% 1.16-42.73) signif…
Alcohol industry, corporate social responsibility and country features in Latin America

This paper characterizes differences in alcohol consumption and related problems before and after the pandemic among Argentinians from different genders, age groups, income levels, and behaviors regarding the acquisition of alcoholic beverages. Through an online survey 1446 participants were assessed regarding four alc…
Helmet use among motorcyclists
The objective of the study was to assess the use of helmets in a community where helmet use is mandatory but low as there is no police enforcement. A sample comprising 451 motorcyclists in the city of Mar del Plata, Argentina, was studied in 2006. The following variables were studied: gender, type of motorcycle, weather conditions, time of the day, city area and type of road where motorcyclists traveled. Data were analyzed through a multiple logi…
