Anik Gevers,Anik Gevers,Catherine Mathews,Catherine Mathews,Pam Cupp,Marcia Russell,Rachel Jewkes,Rachel Jewkes +7 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that adolescents need to be prepared for sexual negotiation and decision-making from an early age through comprehensive and accessible education and health services; sections of current legislation may be a barrier to adopting such policies and practices.

Susan E. McCann,James R. Marshall,Maurizio Trevisan,Marcia Russell,Paola Muti,Nina Markovic,Arthur W.K. Chan,Jo L. Freudenheim +7 more
TL;DR: Estimates of alcohol intake during the 12-24 months prior to interview obtained from the Health Habits and History Questionnaire and the Harvard Semiquantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire are compared with those from a more extensive alcohol questionnaire, the Drinking Pattern Questionnaire, to suggest that both FFQs provide a reasonable ranking of participants' alcohol intake.
