Investigating ways to reduce parental supply of alcohol to teenagers in Australia [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Ms Jacqueline Bowden (Principal investigator)

Brief description Alcohol consumption in Australia is high by international standards, placing a large burden on the health of Australians. Parents are a major supplier of alcohol to teenagers in Australia, putting them at risk of poor drinking habits in adolescence that continue into adulthood. This project will employ a mixed-methods approach to test messages to discourage parents from supplying their children with alcohol and to get them to consider their own drinking behaviour in front of their child.
