High-risk drinking was defined based on daily and weekly drinking guidelines (National Institute, 2009, U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010). Drinkers who exceeded daily and/or weekly guidelines in the past year were classified as at-risk drinkers, with low-risk drinkers as the referent.
