Screening student drinking behaviors
Introduction: High levels of alcohol consumption among college students have been observed across countries. Heavy drinking episodes are particularly prevalent in this population, making early identification of potentially harmful drinking critical from a public health perspective. Short screening instruments such as the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) are serviceable in this regard. However, there is a need for studies investig…
Predictors of satisfaction with digital follow‐up in Norwegian Labor and Welfare Administration
This study examines predictors of satisfaction with digital follow‐up among young people in the Norwegian Labor and Welfare Administration (NAV). A total of 1195 young employment seekers were recruited across Norway. Participants completed a cross‐sectional online survey comprising demographic questions, general questions on service quality, digital services, and open‐ended questions on their experiences with NAV. Using a mixed‐methods approach, …
Willingness to Participate in Alcohol Prevention Interventions Targeting Risky Drinking Employees. The Wirus Project
Background: The extent to which eligible individuals in a target population are willing to participate in interventions is important when evaluating the efficacy of public health interventions. Objectives: As part of a process evaluation of an ongoing randomized controlled trial, this study aimed to identify the proportion of risky drinkers who were willing to participate in an alcohol prevention intervention in an occupational health setting, an…
Are Demanding Job Situations Associated with Alcohol-Related Presenteeism? The Wirus-Screening Study
Alcohol-related presenteeism (impaired work performance caused by alcohol use) is an important but under-researched topic. The aim of this study was to explore whether psychosocial work environment factors were associated with alcohol-related presenteeism. A cross sectional study of Norwegian employees ( n = 6620) was conducted. Logistic regression analyses were used for estimating associations with alcohol-related presenteeism, which was reporte…
Gender Differences in the Association between Positive Drinking Attitudes and Alcohol-Related Problems. The Wirus Study
Background: Alcohol consumption is deeply integrated in people's social- and work lives and, thus, constitutes a serious public health challenge. Attitudes toward drinking stand out as important predictors of drinking, but have to date been sparsely studied in employee populations. This study explores the association of employees' attitudes toward drinking with their alcohol-related problems, and whether this association is moderated by gender an…
Sociodemographic characteristics associated with alcohol consumption and alcohol-related consequences, a latent class analysis of The Norwegian Wirus screening study
Our findings highlight the interconnectedness of alcohol consumption and alcohol-related consequences. Furthermore, the identified classes and SES yields further insights into to intricate relationship between various socioeconomic factors, alcohol use patterns and related negative consequences
The associations between employees’ risky drinking and sociodemographics, and implications for intervention needs
A considerable amount of employees (one to three out of ten), particularly young, unmarried males without children and higher education, may be characterised as risky drinkers. This group may benefit from low-cost interventions, based on recommendations from the WHO guidelines
