Almost all students (91%) in the seven German Bundesländer (federal states) that participated in the study had been drinking alcohol during the past 12 months, and half of them (50%) had been drunk during the same period. Both of these percentages are higher than the ESPAD average. The estimated volume of alcohol consumed on the latest drinking day (5.1 cl alc. 100%) is also above the mean. However, the results for the other variables presented here are very close to average. One-third (33%) of the German students had been smoking during the past 30 days, one-fifth (20%) had used cannabis at some point in their lives and eight percent had used any drug other than cannabis. The lifetime prevalence of inhalant use was about one tenth (11%), non-prescription use of tranquillisers or sedatives was relatively infrequent (3%), and seven percent had used alcohol in combination with pills. |
