Alcoholization of youth is one of the most dangerous forms of deviant behavior, as alcoholism as
a social phenomenon increases the likelihood of criminogenic behavior. Due to the fact that young
people have little life experience and are negatively affected by the environment, this social group is
one of the most vulnerable among the population. The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of
the regions of Russia in terms of alcohol consumption, identifying the main causes and factors
determining alcohol consumption among young people. The article contains the results of an
empirical sociological study of the problem of alcoholism in the Ulyanovsk region. The results of the
study given in the article make it possible to optimize the methodology and methods of sociological
research when studying the problems of alcoholization of youth and the development of a set of
preventive measures taking into account the regional specifics of Russia.
