“…Alcohol and cigarette consumption in low-income (n587) and medium-income (n592) families has been compared (Diacatou, Mamalakis, Kafatos, Vlahonikokis, & Bolinaki, 1993). Overall, for both types of families, the father's alcohol consumption was positively related to smoking and aggressive behaviour.…”

Substance use in Greece is marked by the frequent consumption of both alcohol and tobacco. However, the problems observed in the United Kingdom related to binge drinking are largely absent. To provide insight into this difference, a comprehensive literature review of the tobacco and alcohol use behaviours within Greek host and migrant communities was conducted. To our knowledge this is the first attempt at synthesizing previous literature on this subject. A search of various research databases returned a total of 200 articles, of which 98 were used. A quality assurance element was also built into the review process. The review confirms high levels of tobacco use and consistent use of alcohol by both the younger and general population. There is little evidence of a binge drinking culture but, alcohol related road-traffic accidents remain a significant problem. The authors postulate that alcohol use is not regarded as an adult behaviour to be envied and is, therefore, not a stimulus for rebellion, but rather an act that is socially normal and unremarkable.

Abstract. This chapter reviews the evidence bearing on the question of whether those individuals who consume alcohol have an increased probability of subsequent violent behavior. Four bodies of relevant research are examined: experimental studies with animals, experimental studies with humans, individual-level correlational studies, and macro-level correlational studies. All these research approaches provide some evidence of an association between alcohol consumption and violent behavior, but no firm conclusion can be drawn about whether alcohol plays a causal role in such behavior. Various limitations, deficiencies, and ambiguities of available research that contribute to this state of affairs are discussed.
