Description

For sample adults age 18 to 44, ALCMOFTEN reports how often the respondent drank alcohol during the months that the respondent drank in the past 12 months. (For example, every day of the month, five or six days each week, 3 or 4 days each week, etc.)

ALCMOFTEN was part of a 1991 supplement on drug and alcohol use, sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The supplement was self-administered. It included the questions on the types and frequency of illegal substances, and age at first use. For related variables, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus.
