Drinking Motives Among 15–16-Year-Old School-Going Students in 16 European Countries
This largest drinking motive study, conducted to date, examined drinking motives among 15-16-year-old students across 16 European countries. There is a significant positive correlation between alcohol intoxication prevalence and mean score on enhancement and social motives at an aggregate level, which suggests a stronger presence of enhancement and social motives in cultures with a more intoxication-oriented drinking pattern.
