Panorama Change in Alcohol-Criminality
Analysis of Blood Alcohol Findings Evaluated in the Year 1965 and 1975
Summary. Evaluation of 8834 blood alcohol findings from individuals in police
custody and suspect of criminal actions (3434 relate to the year 1965, 5400 to
1975).
Classification of the findings according to the following aspects: blood alcohol
concentrations in general and with regard to sex, profession, age and nature of the
suspected offense - the findings of the two years (1965 and 1975) are compared
and the individual results presented.
The analysis suggests that:
In young people of any age-group the absolute number of alcohol delicts shows a
considerable increase during the last 10 years (1965-1975).
In adults, with the exception of the 31-40 year age-group, there was no signifi-
cant increase in these offences.
Comparing the results of the individual delicts in 1965 and 1975 there was no
significant difference in the level of the blood alcohol-concentration-groups.
Unskilled workers were more frequently involved in nearly all alcohol-related
crimes.
In 1965 6,6% and in 1975 7,9% of alcohol-related offenses were committed by
females.
Compared with other districts in 1975 alcohol-criminality has increased signifi-
cantly in the new suburban colonies of Hamburg (built since 1965) (public housing,
high-rise housing).
Key words: Alcohol-criminality, panorama change - Blood alcohol concentration,
evaluation.
