Zusammenfassung:This research note draws upon the US National Longitudinal Survey (NLS) of Labor Market Experience among youths aged 17–24 to report the effects of variation in the ordering of alcohol questions upon the prevalence of heavier drinking. A secondary analysis of the NLS indicated a substantial decrease in the prevalence of heavier drinking between 1984 and 1985 which is attributed to the order of presentation of two differently styled questions regarding heavier drinking.
