大学新生回答了一份关于毒品和酒精的问卷。对于除酒精和大麻以外的毒品，大学开始时吸毒的最佳预测指标是高中最后一个月的吸毒情况。然而，大学新生吸食大麻的频率比他们在高中时要低，而酒精饮料的使用在大学早期有所增加。虽然饮酒的频率大大增加，但大学新生的醉酒次数并没有增加。据推测，高中和大学之间同伴关系的变化可能会改变随后的毒品和酒精使用率。然而，数据显示，大学和高中的吸毒情况非常相似，大一新生找到的新朋友和他们高中的朋友很像，一起吸毒，一起喝醉。因此，酗酒和吸毒可能是选择大学新朋友的重要决定因素。
College freshmen responded to a drug and alcohol questionnaire. For drugs other than alcohol and marijuana, the best predictor of drug use at the beginning of college is drug use during a typical month of the senior year of high school. College freshmen, however, use marijuana less frequently than they did in high school and the use of alcoholic beverages increases early in college. While the frequency of alcohol use increases considerably, College freshmen do not increase the number of times they got drunk.It has been hypothesized that the likely change in peer relations between high school and college would alter subsequent rates of drug and alcohol use. However, the data shows that college and high school drug use are very similar and entering freshmen found new friends much like their high school friends to use drugs with and get drunk. Therefore, alcohol and drug use may be important determining factors in the choice of new college friends.
