Sammanfattning
Aims: This study aims to examine whether the significant increase in alcohol consumption in Norway since 1993 is reflected in various alcohol-related harms over the same period.
Data: The study draws on various register statistics and population sample surveys that provide mostly annual time series data on alcohol-related mortality morbidity crimes and other social harms.
Results and Discussion: When examining a wide range of alcohol-related harms some—but not all—harm trends were found to follow the same increasing trend as alcohol consumption. The results are discussed with respect to data accuracy as well as more substantive possible explanations for a mismatch in trends in consumption and harms.
