This Chinese version of the Student Alcohol Questionnaire (SAQ) includes alcohol and drinking questions considered relevant to the Chinese culture by the first author's department at Guangxi Medical University, Nanning, PRC. It contains questions concerning the frequency of drinking, types of beverages and quantity consumed, and behavior problems resulting from alcohol consumption adapted from Engs’ SAQ. It also contains the complete Health Concern Questionnaire and a few attitudes toward alcohol questions. Items were translated by the first author and “back translated” by Chun-Ying Chen at the Medical college Some items were modified to make them more appropriate to the Chinese culture.
