Children, young people and alcohol: how they learn and how to prevent excessive use (30th October 2009)
A review of research into how young people learn to drink reveals that parents and alcohol's representation in the media have the strongest influence on drinking habits, whereas peers have the least. The report, published today (30 October) by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, found that of all the methods which have been tried to encourage young people to drink responsibly, ones based on the family are the most effective.

ARTICLE - A randomized controlled trial of an internet-based intervention for alcohol abusers (9th November 2009)
This study looked at an internet-based intervention, with research evidence supporting its efficacy to reduce alcohol consumption. The conclusion was that the internet could increase the range of help-seeking options available because it takes treatment to the problem drinker rather than making the problem drinker come to the internet.
