The purpose of this study was to extend the limited research on college student support for alcohol control policies by using a latent class analysis to examine the shared characteristics of drinking students who support or oppose such policies.
We used data from a sample of 2393 students drawn from a larger study on high risk drinking at a mid-western university. Data was collected between October 2005 and May 2007. We conducted a latent class analysis to identify sub-groups of drinking students based on relevant variables.
The results of the latent class analysis yielded a model which could correctly classify 90% of the students taking the survey into one of four "classes" based upon their response to four items on the questionnaire.
Interventions would benefit from approaches that target both student perceptions and specific policies that are most conducive to student support and engagement.
本研究旨在通过潜在类别分析来扩展对大学生支持酒精控制政策的有限研究，以检验支持或反对这些政策的饮酒学生的共同特征。
我们使用了一项关于中西部大学高危饮酒的大型研究中抽取的 2393 名学生的样本数据。数据收集于 2005 年 10 月至 2007 年 5 月之间。我们进行了潜在类别分析，根据相关变量来确定饮酒学生的亚组。
潜在类别分析的结果得出了一个模型，该模型可以根据问卷调查中的四个项目的回答，将 90%的参与调查的学生正确分类为四个“类别”之一。
干预措施将受益于针对学生认知和最有利于学生支持和参与的具体政策的方法。
