The specification of the behaviate A RIMA model and outcome of the analyses are presented in Table 3. According to the results, total alcohol sales is a statistically significant associated with both male and female alcoholism mortality rates, implying that a 1-lite increase in per capita alcohol sale is associated with an increase in male mortality of 15.4% and female mortality of 17.2%. The analysis also suggests that of the three beverages vodka alone was associated with alcoholism mortality in Russia. The estimated effects of vodka sales on the alcoholism mortality rate are clearly statically significant for both sexes: a 1 liter increase in vodka sale would result in a 24.2% increase in the male alcoholism mortality rates and in 27.4% increase in female mortality rates.
