Comparisons of the alcohol consumption habits of the Roma and non-Roma population have yielded conflicting results. The aim of this research was to compare alcohol consumption habits between Roma and non-Roma in a sample population in Northeastern Slovenia. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in which we included 100 representatives of Roma and 100 representatives of non-Roma population, aged 18 to 65 years. The questionnaire used included demographic data (gender, age, marital status, education, and employment) and the AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) questionnaire. Two logistic regression models (teetotallers/drinkers and non-hazardous drinkers/other drinkers) were used for the comparison of drinking habits. Results: Roma scored lower on overall AUDIT score (4.51) than non-Roma (4.56). Roma and non-Roma differ significantly regarding teetotallers (39.0 % vs. 16.0 %) and non-hazardous drinkers (38.0 % vs. 64.0 %). Ethnicity was identified to have a statistically significant impact on the studied drinking behaviour: teetotallers (p < 0.001) and non-hazardous drinkers (p = 0.015). Discussion and conclusion: Our aim was to look at the differences between the two groups rather than obtain representative data on the population. Our research also casts a doubt on whether the AUDIT questionnaire is suitable for measuring alcohol abuseUvod: Visoka stopnja uživanja alkohola je posebej značilna za severovzhodni del naše države. Študije, kjer so glede pitja alkohola primerjali romsko in neromsko populacijo, navajajo nasprotujoča si dejstva. Cilj raziskave je bila primerjava navad pitja alkohola med Romi in Neromi na vzorcu prebivalcev severovzhodne Slovenije. Metode: Opravljena je bila presečna raziskava, ki je vključevala 100 predstavnikov Romov in 100 predstavnikov Neromov, starih od 18 do 65 let. Uporabljeni vprašalnik je vključeval demografske podatke (spol, starost, zakonski stan, stopnja izobrazbe in zaposlitev) in podatke vprašalnika AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test). Za primerjavo pivskih navad sta bila uporabljena dva logistična regresijska modela (abstinenti/pivci in manj tvegani/ostali pivci). Rezultati: Z vprašalnikom AUDIT je bilo za Rome ugotovljeno nižje povprečno število točk (4,51) kot za Nerome (4,56). Skupini se bistveno razlikujeta po številu abstinentov (Romi: 39,0 %, Neromi: 16,0 %) in manj tveganih pivcev (Romi: 38,0 %, Neromi: 64,0 %). Na pivsko vedenje ima etnična pripadnost statistično značilen vpliv, kar velja tako za abstinente (p < 0,001) kot tudi za manj tvegane pivce (p = 0,015). Diskusija in zaključek: Namen raziskave ni bilo zbiranje reprezentativnih podatkov o prebivalstvu, ampak ugotavljanje razlik med obravnavanima skupinTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZbornica zdravstvene in babiške nege Slovenije - Zveza strokovnih društev medicinskih sester, babic in zdravstvenih tehnikov Slovenije
