Evaluating alcohol control policies in St. Kitts and Nevis : final technical report

Abstract

The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis are two islands (11 miles apart) but one country. The study evaluated the impact of changes in alcohol policy on drinking behaviour, and policy-related variables: effects of pricing policies; restrictions on hours of expenditure; marketing restrictions; impacts of differences and changes in alcohol policy on drinking behavior; and physical availability across different population groups. This study allowed for international comparisons of alcohol policy in St. Kitts and Nevis with a number of countries currently implementing the International Alcohol Control (IAC) Study.
