Sammanfattning
Several large changes which were assumed to have a large impact on Swedes
drinking have been implemented since 1995. The first studies showed
increases in consumption levels. This article discusses the later changes and
focuses in particular on men’s and women’s drinking after 2004 and how these
were affected by the changes. It was expected that population groups known to
drink large amounts, i.e. men, young and high consumers, would be the ones
who would increase their drinking the most. Looking back, those were rather
the groups which decreased their drinking. Instead an increase could be noted
among those traditionally known as low consumers, e.g. older women. The
article ends with a discussion on what could explain the unexpected results.
