College student drinking to excess, especially a potentially dangerous practice often termed "binge drinking," is a widespread national problem with serious consequences. Two out of five college students who engage in binge drinking risk a wide range of alcohol-related consequences, including grave injuries and death. This volume contains two reports by the Task Force of the Nat. Advisory Council on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that address this problem: (1) High-Risk Drinking in College: What We Know and What We Need to Learn: Final Report of the Panel on Contexts and Consequences; and (2) How to Reduce High-Risk College Drinking: Use Proven Strategies, Fill Research Gaps: Final Report of the Panel on Prevention and Treatment.

Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

The college drinking prevention curriculum for health care providers is part of a national effort sponsored by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) to reduce high-risk drinking and alcohol-related problems among college students. The curriculum is divided into four teaching modules. Each module is based on current evidence and research and includes the essential information every clinician should know about the prevention and treatment of college drinking problems.

College student drinking to excess is a widespread national problem with serious consequences and it has been for a long time. Although the factors that have made the problem so intractable are complex, today based on scientific research results we have the potential to make real progress in controlling excessive drinking. In fact, a substantial body of research studies now offers direction on how to reduce excessive, underage, and high-risk college drinking. On the basis of this information, colleges and universities, communities, and other interested organizations can take steps toward positive change more confidently. Although significant information gaps remain, the science-based guidance now available means campuses and communities no longer have to “reinvent the wheel” when they try to address the problem. It also enables us to avoid inadvertently perpetuating ineffective programs and approaches.The availability of science-based guidance is a significant step forward because lack of information about what works and what does not has been a major obstacle to progress. On the research side, high-quality research has addressed only some of the issues of concern to college administrators and the practical implications of research results have not been widely disseminated. On the institutional side, most campus alcohol efforts have not been evaluated, which has hindered the effectiveness of individual campus efforts and slowed the growth of the knowledge base from which all could learn.Although the research base on college alcohol problems is limited, the panel of college presidents, students, and alcohol research specialists that contributed to this report identified a number of effective strategies that colleges and universities could confidently use today. These include strategies for changing the environment to discourage high-risk drinking, affecting the behavior of individuals and groups, creating comprehensive college-community efforts to combat the problem, and adopting effective approaches for managing program implementation. It is encouraging that many of these strategies require no new resources, are modest in costs, and can be accomplished by existing staff.From its review of the scientific literature, the Panel on Prevention and Treatment believes that adopting approaches with demonstrated effectiveness can begin to reduce high-risk college drinking and continue to advance knowledge by filling critical research gaps. The Panel recommends that the action steps and research needs described below receive priority attention from colleges and universities, researchers, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), and other potential funders, communities, and interested organizations.The Panel recommended more action steps in some areas than in others. This is primarily due to the amount of research available. Except as noted, approaches that have not been included in the recommendations are not necessarily ineffective. Often simply less is known about them. Among the “key research gaps” identified by the Panel is the need for rigorous testing of strategies now considered “promising” based on face value or common sense. As researchers rise to this challenge, the effectiveness of many of these approaches will become known.

Substance use among college students can result in serious academic and safety problems and have long-term negative repercussions. This state-of-the-art volume draws on the latest research on students' alcohol and drug use to provide useful suggestions for how to address this critical issue on college campuses. Leading researchers from multiple disciplines examine the prevalence and nature of substance use by students; biological and neuropsychological considerations; psychological and social aspects; prevention; and policy. Exemplary programs are presented -- including brief interventions, comprehensive prevention programs, and recovery support programs -- enhancing the utility of the book for campus-based clinicians and administrators. This title is part of The Duke Series in Child Development and Public Policy, edited by Kenneth A. Dodge and Martha Putallaz.

As many students make the transition from high school into college, they are often exposed to many new experiences and environments. Many of these transitioning students are faced with less parental influence and involvement. One such choice that faces many college students is the availability and opportunity to engage in consuming alcohol. More than half on the college populations consumes alcohol within a given month. It is no surprise that alcohol related deaths, accidents and other negative effects have been steadily increasing. Given the increased rates of alcohol related consequences are on the rise prevention efforts have not kept pace. This study tested a one two and three way interaction model to compare 2-year and 4-year institutions on the risky drinking practices of pregaming, drinking games, and co-occurring alcohol mixed with energy drinks with the role of sensation seeking and positive family history for substance abuse as moderators in this comparison. College students recruited for a 2-year and a 4-year institution (N = 159 students 68.6 % 4-year-institution, 31.1% 2-year-institution, Mage = 19.19, Female 67.3% female, White 53.5%) completed an anonymous self-report assessment examining alcohol use, alcohol consequences, and psychosocial factors associated with alcohol use (i.e., sensation seeking and perceived consequences). Results indicated that higher levels of sensation seeking along with institution type were related to increased engagement in risky drinking practices. Significant moderating effects were found for positive family history of substance abuse and school type. Overall, the results indicated that sensation seeking and institution type does have a significant impact on risky drinking behaviors.
