Alcohol consumption and related problems are common among underage college students, yet qualitative, in-depth information on how/where these students obtain alcohol is limited. We conducted focus groups pertaining to access to alcohol and related issues with 19 underage college students. They reported that alcohol is easy to obtain from a variety of sources, with friends/acquaintances who are of legal age or those with a false ID being the most common. Parties were also common sources, but "shoulder tapping" (i.e., asking a stranger to purchase alcohol) was not common. Disagreement arose over whether underage fraternity/sorority members have greater access to alcohol than non-Greeks. Our results provide updated information on the various sources of alcohol and associated issues among underage college students.
饮酒及相关问题在未成年大学生中很常见,但关于这些学生如何获取酒精/从何处获取酒精的定性、深入信息却很有限。我们针对19名未成年大学生开展了关于酒精获取及相关问题的焦点小组访谈。他们报告称,酒精很容易从各种渠道获取,其中最常见的是从达到法定年龄的朋友/熟人或持有假身份证的人那里获得。派对也是常见的获取渠道,但“搭肩询问”(即请陌生人购买酒精)并不常见。对于未成年兄弟会/姐妹会成员是否比非兄弟会/姐妹会成员更容易获得酒精存在分歧。我们的研究结果提供了关于未成年大学生酒精获取的各种渠道及相关问题的最新信息。
