Error in Table

In the original publication [1], there were mistakes in Table 1 and Table 2 as published. We had made a coding error with the independent variable “Was it a typical night out?”. The corrected Table 1 and Table 2 appear below.

Text Correction

There was an error in the original publication [1]. We had made a coding error with the independent variable “Was it a typical night out?”, thereby affecting some of the text. Corrections have been made to the following sections:
Section 3, Paragraph 1:
Half reported that it was not a typical night out for them.
Section 3, Paragraph 2:
For male participants, the preference for late-closing bars was associated with the following: the youngest age group (age 18–21); clerical occupations (compared to ‘other’); and the survey occurring on Friday night.
Section 4, Paragraph 5:
Furthermore, half of participants were not on a typical night out for them so may have been drinking at venues they did not typically frequent and/or may have gone home earlier or stayed out later than usual.
The authors apologise for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.

[Ref]: Reference group. ± Time of survey, duration of drinking session, pre-drinking, energy drink use and whether it was a typical night out were non-contributing variables in both models and removed in the backward stepwise selection approach. Occupation was a non-contributing variable in the female model and was removed in the backward stepwise selection approach.
