    This study examined college students' drinking habits, including settings and companions, in relation to demographics and academic factors. It also investigated how year in school affects alcohol consumption quantity and frequency.

    Area of Science:

    • Social Sciences
    • Public Health
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • College student drinking is a significant public health concern.
    • Understanding factors influencing drinking patterns is crucial for intervention.
    • Previous research has explored various correlates of student alcohol use.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the drinking settings and companions of college students.
    • To examine the relationship between student demographics (gender, year, academics, work, residence) and drinking patterns.
    • To analyze the association between academic year and the quantity/frequency of specific alcohol beverage consumption.

    Main Methods:

    • Cross-sectional study design.
    • Data collected on drinking settings, companions, and consumption patterns.

  • Analysis of relationships with student demographic and academic variables.
  • Main Results:

    • Drinking settings and companions varied based on student characteristics.
    • Year in school showed a significant relationship with alcohol consumption quantity and frequency.
    • Academic standing and work status were also associated with drinking behaviors.

    Conclusions:

    • Student demographics and academic factors are important correlates of college drinking.
    • Interventions should consider these factors when addressing student alcohol use.
    • Further research is needed to explore causal relationships and develop targeted prevention strategies.
