摘要从119所四年制大学中随机抽取了1万多名本科生，回答了一份关于枪支持有和枪支威胁的邮寄问卷。大约4.3%的学生报告说，他们在大学里有一支工作枪支，1.6%的学生在学校里受到枪支威胁。如果学生是男性，住在校外，酗酒，酒后从事危险和攻击性行为，并参加美国家庭枪支流行率高的地区的机构，那么他们在大学期间更有可能拥有枪支，并在大学期间受到枪支威胁。拥有枪支保护也与在大学期间受到枪支威胁密切相关。报告说在大学里拥有枪支的学生不成比例地报告说，他们从事的行为使自己和他人处于受伤的危险之中。
Abstract A random sample of more than 10,000 undergraduate students, selected from 119 4-year colleges, answered a mailed questionnaire about gun possession and gun threats. Approximately 4.3% of the students reported that they had a working firearm at college, and 1.6% of them have been threatened with a gun while at school. Students are more likely to have a firearm at college and to be threatened with a gun while at college if they are male, live off campus, binge drink, engage in risky and aggressive behavior after drinking, and attend institutions in regions of the United States where household firearm prevalence is high. Having a firearm for protection is also strongly associated with being threatened with a gun while at college. Students who reported having firearms at college disproportionately reported that they engaged in behaviors that put themselves and others at risk for injury.
