Alcohol Research Group

Tag:

The Alcohol Research Group (ARG) is an NIAAA-funded National Alcohol Research Center housing experts from diverse fields, including public health, epidemiology, psychology, and economics.

Our research addresses a wide range of topics, from basic epidemiology to clinical and health services research, using a variety of methods, including survey research, ethnography, clinical trials, and public health interventions.

Since 1979, ARG has periodically conducted large, national-probability surveys of Americans’ drinking and drug use, enabling us to describe emerging trends in alcohol and drug consumption and problems; understand age, period, and cohort effects underlying such trends; study methodological issues in the measurement of alcohol and drug use; identify individual and environmental influences on alcohol and drug outcomes; and more.

ARG also houses many other local and national datasets, facilitating sophisticated analyses relevant to understanding, preventing, and treating alcohol and drug problems.
