Study: Off Campus Drinking Can be Curbed
Montag 29. Juni 2009 von htm
A new study concludes that off-campus drinking by college students was reduced 27 percent by implementing community-level prevention programs. Researchers surveyed more than 6,000 students and found a significant decrease in the percentage who reported binge drinking during the previous two weeks at a pair of schools that implemented community-based programs; meanwhile, the binge drinking rose among students at a control school that did not have a community-based prevention strategy. Frequency of binge drinking at the intervention schools also remained stable, while it increased significantly at the control school, the study found. (Source: Join Together, 6/26/09)
