Are You Going to Finish That Drink?

Data are from the 2000 National Alcohol Survey Methodological Follow-up, which includes 323 individuals from across the United States.

Directly measured estimates of drink volume and amount left unfinished along with self-report of the frequency and reasons for which drinks are not finished and are compared across groups.

Overall, 12% of drinks reported in the sample were not finished. Smaller amounts of beer and wine volume were left by men, “heavier drinkers” and older persons.
