| Description | This cross-sectional study of 960 Czech students (18-37 years old) shows alcohol expectancies predict high-risk drinking, despite 40% reporting decreased consumption post-COVID. Social enhancement/aggression expectancies drive quantity, while tension reduction predicts frequency. These findings reveal key drivers of problematic drinking, informing tailored public health policies. |
