Project Summary Alcohol and marijuana are the most commonly used psychoactive substances among college students in the US and research has documented many acute and long-term negative consequences of high-risk use. Nearly all of the published research on college student drinking and marijuana use focuses on 4-year college students, despite statistics that students attending 2-year community colleges make up a large and growing proportion of college students in the US and that many community college students engage in high-risk alcohol and marijuana use and experience substance-related problems. The development of alcohol and marijuana interventions are warranted for community college students engaging in high-risk use, however, there needs to be a better understanding of risk factors associated with use among this particular population to identify/adapt targets of intervention. Prior research suggests that perceived descriptive and injunctive alcohol and marijuana norms are among the strongest predictors of alcohol and marijuana use and personalized normative feedback interventions have been used as stand-alone alcohol interventions and as part of multi-component brief motivational interventions to reduce normative misperceptions of peer substance use and approval of use. Social psychology and higher education theories (i.e., Social Identity Theory and Student Involvement Model) suggest identity and student connectedness are important factors to consider in the relationship between social norms and behavior. Using a mixed methods research design, the specific aims of this application are: (1) qualitatively explore social and educational identity, school connectedness, and perceived peer alcohol and marijuana use among a diverse sample of community college students, (2) conduct finite mixture modeling to identify distinct classes of alcohol and marijuana use and consequences and important correlates of identified classes among young adult community college students, (3) use longitudinal survey data with multilevel analyses to examine short- and longer-term consequences of use, as well as (4) cross-sectional and prospective associations between norms and use and potential moderators of these associations among a diverse sample of young adult community college students. The proposed study addresses an important gap in substance use research and intervention by examining an often ignored population. The applicant will also receive advanced training in: (1) etiology, prevention, and treatment of young adult substance use and scientific aspects of study management, (2) qualitative and mixed method research methods and advanced statistical methods, (3) interventions and applied work for young adult substance use, and (4) scientific writing and dissemination.

项目摘要 酒精和大麻是美国大学生中最常用的精神活性物质。 美国和研究已经记录了高风险使用的许多急性和长期负面后果。 几乎所有关于大学生饮酒和大麻使用的研究都集中在4年制大学 学生，尽管统计数据显示，参加两年制社区学院的学生占了很大的比例，而且还在不断增长。 美国大学生的比例和许多社区大学生从事高风险酒精 和大麻的使用以及与物质有关的问题。酒精和大麻的发展 干预措施是必要的社区大学生从事高风险的使用，但是，有必要 更好地了解与该特定人群中使用相关的风险因素，以确定/适应 干预的目标。先前的研究表明，感知描述性和禁令性酒精和大麻 规范是酒精和大麻使用以及个性化规范反馈的最强预测因素之一 干预措施已被用作单独的酒精干预措施，并作为多成分简报的一部分 动机干预，以减少规范的误解同龄人的物质使用和批准的使用。 社会心理学和高等教育理论（即，社会认同理论与学生参与模式（Social Identity Theory and Student Involvement Model） 我认为，身份和学生的联系是社会关系中需要考虑的重要因素。 规范和行为。采用混合方法研究设计，本申请的具体目的是：（1） 定性地探索社会和教育身份，学校连通性和感知的同龄人酒精， 大麻使用社区大学生的不同样本，（2）进行有限混合建模， 确定不同类别的酒精和大麻的使用和后果，以及确定的重要相关因素 （3）使用多水平纵向调查数据， 分析，以审查使用的短期和长期后果，以及（4）跨部门和 规范和使用之间的预期关联以及这些关联的潜在调节者， 年轻的成年社区大学生的不同样本。拟议的研究解决了一个重要的差距， 药物使用研究和干预，通过检查往往被忽视的人口。申请人还将 接受高级培训：（1）病因学，预防和治疗年轻成人物质使用， 研究管理的科学方面，（2）定性和混合方法的研究方法和先进的 统计方法，（3）年轻成人物质使用的干预和应用工作，以及（4）科学写作 和传播。
