Abstract

This thesis found binge drinking behaviour was not an extensive problem among Vietnamese medical students but identified various factors and beliefs underlying riskier binge drinking intentions for some students, especially gender, group norms of friends, and role identity as future doctors. Alcohol-related training was an 'add-on' to the Vietnamese current medical curriculum. Stronger educational activities related to alcohol were suggested to consider for future revisions of the medical curriculum. More attention is needed to address the drinking behaviours of doctors, especially surgeons and preventive medicine doctors, and medical students in their transition to becoming future doctors in these specialities.
