Data on the 12-months prevalence of alcohol consumption and on estimated volumes consumed on the latest drinking day are missing from the Faroese study. The proportion of students who reported drunkenness during the past 12 months (41%) is very close to the ESPAD average. The only variable among those presented here for which the proportion is higher than the average is the 30-days prevalence of smoking cigarettes (33%). Very few of the Faroese students report any use of cannabis (6%), which is about one-third of the ESPAD average, and the use of drugs other than cannabis is almost non-existent (1%). Other behaviours, such as use of inhalants (8%), non-prescription use of tranquillisers or sedatives (3%) and use of alcohol in combination with pills (6%), are all at a rather low level which is close to the average. |
