Talk title: Drinking behaviour and attitudes among adults in Ireland – key trends and patterns
This presentation will provide a comprehensive overview of key findings from our latest Barometer survey that was conducted by Behaviour & Attitudes during July and August 2023. This research was undertaken in order to provide an overview of adults’ drinking behaviours in Ireland and to their attitudes and motivations regarding alcohol. Collectively, extensive data gathered since commencement of the Barometer series in 2017 allows for an annual examination of drinking practices over time and how they relate to other practices within daily life. Part of this presentation will thus provide vital evidence on the potential legacy of COVID-19.
Speaker Biography:
After graduating from Trinity College, Dublin with a degree in Business Studies, John O’Mahony gained experience in financial services before joining brand consultancy Alexander Dunlop where he managed and consulted on international research projects in the UK, Germany, India and USA.
Since joining B&A in 2004, John designs and manages both qualitative and quantitative research for clients. The ability to deliver a dualist research approach and perspective is a feature he finds particularly rewarding.

John’s research for B&A has been nominated for a series of research awards for his work with the Road Safety Authority, RTE Performing Groups and Tourism Ireland. The blending of economic analysis and market research has been a feature of John’s work, including projects with Fáilte Ireland on the economic contribution of Festivals; with Dublin City Council on the socio-economic impact of Croke Park on the local community; and the contribution of the horse racing industry to the Irish economy.
