The study,which has just been published in the Journal of Adolescence,found a strong link between frequency of drinking and frequency of hitting other people.
However,children who reported drinking monthly were also three times more likely to be hit.Adolescents who drank but didn’t get into fights were more likely to be hit than those who did fight.
Professor Jonathan Shepherd,who led the research,said a lot of previous alcohol-related violence work had focused on the offenders rather than the victims.His team is calling for more prevention work from parents and teachers in the first two years of secondary school by taking advantage of the “teachable moment”,that is,immediately after a student has missed school because of drunkenness.
Previous work by Professor Jonathan Shepherd has shown drinkers may be more at risk of violence because of reduced physical co-ordination,poor decision-making in threatening situations and isolation while out late at night.
He said,“This new study seems to be the first to show a direct link between alcohol misuse and victimization.There now needs to be much more effort put into reducing alcohol misuse in order to reduce injury.”
