*Variables: Educational level is defined as highest finished education, from the questionnaires in PART and from Statistics Sweden registers, in SPHC. Occupational class is current or previous occupation, self-reported in the questionnaires, and categorized according to Swedish socio-economic classification (29). Abstainers last 12 months are from a dichotomous question in the questionnaires. A risk consumer is defined as men with 8+ points in AUDIT score and women with 6+ points in AUDIT score in PART and defined as drinking 14 or more standard glasses (> = 168 grams 100% alcohol) for men and 9 standard glasses (> = 108 grams 100% alcohol) for women per week in SPHC.
