Conclusions are statements drawn from the findings which present the implications of the results, and
answer the research questions presented at the beginning of the paper.

Research Implications are conclusions that you draw from your outcomes and describe how the results may
be connected to a certain theory or practice.

Practical Implication is realistic description of what the results of your study might imply.

Theoretical implication is a description that supports or contradicts a theory, previous research results, or
creates something completely new

Recommendations are suggestions regarding the best course of action to take as a result of your data
analysis and conclusion.

A research report is a written document containing key aspects of research project. It is a medium to
communicate research work with relevant people.

Conclusions:

Alcohol is not an ordinary commodity. While it carries connotations of pleasure and

sociability in the minds of many, harmful consequences of its use are diverse and
widespread. From a global perspective, in order to reduce the harm caused by alcohol,
policies need to take into account specific situations in different societies.

Average volumes consumed and patterns of drinking are two dimensions of alcohol
consumption that need to be considered in efforts to reduce the burden of alcohol-
related problems. Avoiding the combination of drinking and driving is an example of
measures that can reduce the health burden of alcohol. Worldwide, alcohol takes an
enormous toll on lives and communities, especially in developing countries and its
contribution to the overall burden of disease is expected to increase in the future. The
main acute effects of ethanol are on the nervous system, causing characteristic
changes in behavior and judgement. There are particular issues with regard to driving,
with different countries setting various ‘safe’ limits for blood-ethanol concentration.
Very high blood-ethanol concentrations can be fatal. Hangovers are unpleasant and
are poorly understood. Various mechanisms have been proposed including direct
effects of ethanol on organs, ethanol withdrawal, accumulation of acetaldehyde and
the effects of other chemicals present in alcoholic drinks. Many treatments are in
common usage but there is little evidence of any particular intervention being
beneficial. Alcoholic liver disease results from excessive drinking and includes fatty
liver (which is the early reversible stage) and the more serious alcohol-induced
hepatitis and cirrhosis. Excessive drinking can also lead to nervous-system damage
resulting in dementia, and shrinking of central nervous system tissue. Fetal alcohol
syndrome can result from maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy. It involves
disruption of fetal development causing CNS abnormalities, growth retardation and
characteristic facial features. Treatment of liver disorders is difficult other than by
abstinence.

Particularly worrying trends are the increases in the average amount of alcohol
consumed per person in countries such as Philippines and the more harmful and risky
drinking patterns among young people. National monitoring systems need to be
developed to keep track of alcohol consumption and its consequences, and to raise
awareness amongst the public and policy-makers. It is up to both governments and

PROJECT BANGA – Bringing Assessment in the New Normal to Greatness through Academic Ease |3
concerned citizens to encourage debate and formulate effective public health policies
that minimize the harm caused by alcohol.
Recommendations:

There’s no safe level of alcohol use for young people under 18 years. Although trying
alcohol is common among teenagers, there are many risks. Alcohol can impair brain
development and increase the risk of other alcohol-related problems, including
addiction, in early adulthood and beyond. You and other significant adults are a major
influence on your child’s use of alcohol, and you can be a role model for safe alcohol
habits. For example, if you choose not to drink alcohol, that’s great. If you do drink
alcohol, you can send your child powerful messages by drinking occasionally, in
moderation and only with other people around. Even the way you talk about alcohol
and other drugs sends a message. For example, you might think about what your child
hears when an adult says something like, ‘I need a drink – I had a shocking day at
work’.

Talking about alcohol use is an important way to prevent or limit your child’s use of
alcohol.

Preparing to talk with your child

You can make difficult conversations like this easier by learning more about the effects
and risks of alcohol and thinking about what to say beforehand. You could also think
about how to answer questions about alcohol, including questions about your own
alcohol use. This way, you’re prepared if the issue comes up unexpectedly.

When you have a close relationship with your child, it’s easier for you to raise issues
like alcohol use with them, so work on staying connected too.

Starting a conversation
You could start a conversation by talking about something you and your child have
seen – for example, alcohol in a movie, TV show or advertisement, or alcohol at a party.
Or you could ask your child some questions. For example:

 Do kids at school talk about alcohol? What do they say?

 What do you think about our family rules on drinking alcohol?

How to talk with your child

During your conversations with your child about alcohol, you could:

 discuss values and expectations about alcohol use in your family

 communicate facts, including the effects that alcohol has on the body or how it
affects thinking and behavior

PROJECT BANGA – Bringing Assessment in the New Normal to Greatness through Academic Ease |4
  explain things like the size of a standard drink.

It’s important to listen and be open to what your child has to say.

If your child has questions, try to answer them briefly, honestly and calmly. Be clear
about your own beliefs. And if you don’t know the answers to your child’s questions,
it’s OK to say so. You can tell your child you’ll think about it and get back to them.

If your child is going to be around alcohol with other young people, it’s safest for your
child not to drink alcohol.

But in these situations, it’s common for teenagers to want or feel pressured to try
alcohol. This might be because they want to fit in with friends, feel part of their peer
group or look cool. You can help your child plan how to respond to this pressure. For
example, your child could say ‘Thanks but I’ve got a game tomorrow’ or ‘No thanks, I
don’t drink’.

Some teenagers might try alcohol and enjoy the way it makes them feel. It might give
them a thrill or make them feel ‘grown up’. If you think your child might be in this
situation, here are some messages about alcohol use that can help to keep your child
safe:

 Avoid unsupervised and unsafe environments – for example, with strangers, or

at large events and parties where there are no adults.
 Don’t binge-drink.
 Don’t mix alcohol with other drugs.
 Don’t drink and drive.
 Drink slowly, don’t drink on an empty stomach, and alternate alcoholic drinks
with water.
 Keep count of drinks and limit how many alcoholic drinks you have.
 Don’t get involved in drinking games.
 Have a non-drinking buddy.

Body and behavior

Alcohol affects the body in several ways.

At first it can make people feel energized and more social. But as people drink more,
they might become drowsy, lose balance and coordination, slur speech and think more
slowly. They can feel sick and vomit.

As the amount of alcohol in the blood goes up, people can’t think clearly or coordinate
their bodies properly. This means they’re at risk of accidents and injuries or being
involved in violence.

At high levels, alcohol can make people unconscious or stop them breathing normally.
Young people have been known to die from alcohol poisoning or from choking on their
own vomit.

Decision-making
One of the most important tasks of adolescence is learning how to make independent,
responsible decisions. Some of these decisions will be good and some not so good –
making mistakes and learning from them is all part of growing up.

But alcohol affects people’s ability to think quickly, make good judgments and avoid
dangerous situations or risky behavior.

For example, a young person under the influence of alcohol could:

 be involved in physical or verbal violence

 have unprotected sex, or not be able to deal with unwanted sexual advances and
be sexually assaulted
 experience hallucinations or delusions that could lead to accidents or injury
 get alcohol poisoning and lose consciousness or die
 black out and forget what they’re doing or where they are
 be injured while swimming, playing sport, climbing or even trying to cross a road
 break the law or get into trouble with the police
 lose control, behave inappropriately and harm important relationships or
damage their reputation.
 greater risk of alcohol-related harm than adults

The teen years are a time of adventure, challenges, and taking risks. Alcohol is often
one of the risks young people take. But most people don’t know how alcohol affects a
teen’s body and behavior. They don’t realize that alcohol can affect young people in
different ways from adults. And they don’t realize that underage drinkers can also
harm people other than themselves.
