COLLEGE STUDENT DRINKING AND THE CAMPUS ENVIRONMENT--COMMUNITY PREVENTION

描述：大学生饮酒的极端程度及其随之而来 风险每隔几年就会被“重新发现”一次，但我们似乎几乎没有什么收获。 在这一群体中预防饮酒问题的进展。我们建议 这可能是由于方法上的一些弱点，包括 干预目标定义不明确，信息被视为不适当或 学生无关紧要，过度依赖专门的意识运动， 对环境因素的关注不足，这些因素影响了 学生喝酒。在建议的五年研究中，我们计划评估 以社区为基础的全面大学干预的影响 通过降低风险来减少醉酒和酗酒的频率 由商业和社会主持人负责的饮料组成的干预 服务(RBS)计划，由将提高认知的活动支持 风险陶醉，纠正学生对同伴的高估 学生们？消费酒精，并为苏格兰皇家银行的新政策争取支持。 研究分为四个阶段：(1)基线和政策研究阶段，包括 1,500名学生的纵向样本加上一个比较校园的样本； (2)计划实施阶段；(3)过程评估阶段；以及(4) 结果评价阶段，在该阶段，方案对 醉酒、酗酒和普遍的负面后果是 与基线和对照校园的样本进行比较。基线 数据将被用作形成性研究和改变学生的信息 感知。评价将整合过程和结果模型，以 最好告诉我们该计划可能如何影响学生饮酒 在各个队列中。 除了这些主要目标外，拟议的研究将能够 调查学生饮酒在大学期间是如何演变的 职业生涯，并探索性别和种族差异的可能来源 酗酒和酗酒问题。最后，该组件将提供 另外两个中心组成部分的基本后勤保障--酒精研究 对于大学生的可获得性，以及对酒精的仔细调查？S的作用 在大学生中的性侵犯。

DESCRIPTION: The extreme levels of college student drinking and its attendant risks are "rediscovered" every few years and yet we seem to have made little progress toward preventing drinking problems among this group. We suggest that this is likely due to a number of weaknesses in approach, including poorly defined targets of intervention, messages perceived as inappropriate or irrelevant by students, an over-reliance on awareness campaigns exclusively, and insufficient attention to environmental factors that shape the extent of student drinking. In the proposed five year study, we plan to evaluate the impact of a comprehensive, community-based university intervention to reduce the frequency of intoxication and "binge" drinking via a risk-reduction intervention that comprises a commercial and social-host responsible beverage service (RBS) program, supported by activities that will increase perception of risk intoxication, correct students' overestimates of their fellow students? consumption of alcohol, and garner support for the new RBS policies. The study has four phases: (1) baseline and policy research phase including a longitudinal sample of 1,500 students plus a sample from a comparison campus; (2) a program implementation phase; (3) a process evaluation phase; and (4) an outcome evaluation phase in which the program's impact on the frequency of intoxication, binge drinking, and prevalence of negative consequences is compared to the baseline and a sample from the comparison campus. Baseline data will be used as formative research and as information to change student perceptions. The evaluation will integrate process and outcome models to better inform us as to how the program may have influenced student drinking across cohorts. In addition to these primary objectives, the proposed study will be able to investigate how student drinking evolves over the course of their college career, and explore the possible sources of gender and ethnic differences in drinking and drinking problems. Finally, this component will be providing the basic logistical support for two other center components - a study of alcohol availability for college students, and a close investigation of alcohol?s role in sexual assault among college students.
