Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between a school health promotion program and problem drinking behaviors.
Methods: The participants in this study were 1st-5th grade students in secondary school in Lima and Callao, Peru. We conducted pre- and post-surveys in 2014 and 2017, respectively, to assess the effect of a school health promotion intervention. The school health promotion intervention was implemented from 2015 to 2017 in four schools, and two schools were taken as control groups in collaboration with the Korea International Cooperation Agency. Randomized stratified sampling was performed to analyze 971 participants in the experimental group and 585 in the control group. The homogeneity test was conducted before the intervention. A chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were performed. The participants in this study were 1 to 5 grade students in secondary school in Lima and Callao, Peru.

Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis was performed.
Results: First, 35.7% of the students had experienced drinking more than once in their lifetime and 59.2% had experienced drinking in the last year.
