Even though the research was conducted in the UK region, the figures complied correspondingly in North America and Europe. The behavior of decreased drinking became a normal social pattern in the young crowd from 18% in 2005 rising to 29% after ten years. The study results proposed a more adaptable pattern for young people to recognize the dangerous behaviors and consequences of impulsive drinking, and henceforth adjusted accordingly to be health-conscious.  

With the same group of people, ten percent of them declared non-drinkers in 1998. After ten years, an increase to fifteen percent declared to be non-drinkers. Then after four years, a total of twenty-one percent declared non-drinkers at the end of the study period.
