ZT 2.2 Prevalence of Alcohol Consumption Among Students and Personnel

Srinakharinwirot University (SWU) systematically integrates anonymous digital health surveys, statistical behavior tracking, and health promotion platforms into its operational framework across all campuses.


To operationalize data collection for ZT 2.2 compliance verification, SWU executed a structured survey methodology covering instrument design, sampling strategies, anonymity controls, and data analysis:


Survey Instrument & Digital Infrastructure (SWU UniHealth Platform)

Data was collected through the SWU UniHealth Platform (https://unihealth.swu.ac.th), an integrated university health management portal. The survey instrument included validated screening questions measuring:

  • Alcohol consumption status (consumers vs. non-consumers).

  • Drinking frequency (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly, or occasionally).

  • Average quantity per occasion and binge-drinking patterns.

  • Contextual factors driving alcohol consumption.

Summary of Survey Results & Statistical Analysis

The formula used to compute the prevalence rate is: Prevalence = (number of respondents who reported drinking alcohol × 100) / number of survey respondents:


  • Total University Population Covered / Survey Respondents: 37,739 students and personnel (GI 5 + GI 6) / 1,252 participants (Students: 963, Personnel: 289).

  • Number of Reported Alcohol Consumers: 529 individuals (Students: 380, Personnel: 149).

  • Calculated Prevalence Rate: 42.25% (Students: 39.46%, Personnel: 51.56%).

  • Statistical Methods: Descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages) were applied to analyze drinking frequency, quantity and AUDIT risk levels across campus roles (students and personnel) and faculties or units. As 2026 is the first year of data collection through the Uni-Health Platform, these results establish the University's baseline for comparing trends in future academic years.

Executive Summary Prose

Srinakharinwirot University (SWU) systematically evaluates the prevalence of alcohol consumption among its students and staff in alignment with the Healthy University Framework and SDG 3. To assess drinking behaviors, frequency, and consumption quantities, SWU implemented a comprehensive, anonymous university-wide health survey deployed via the Uni-Health Platform, using the standardized Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT). Out of a total sample of 1,252 participants (comprising 963 students and 289 personnel), 529 individuals reported alcohol consumption, representing a campus prevalence rate of 42.25%. The data collection method protected participants' anonymity and data privacy, with results analyzed and reported only in aggregate, and captured a cross-section of faculties and administrative units on both the Prasarnmit and Ongkharak campuses. These survey results directly inform SWU's preventive health policies, substance abuse awareness initiatives, and counseling interventions.
