An intervention to reduce college alcohol use and secondhand effects was tested. Freshmen dormitory wings at a large Mid-Atlantic public university were assigned to single-gender (SG) or mixed-gender (MG) Information-Motivation-Behavior (IMB) workshops implemented during the first weeks of school, or a control condition. Students were surveyed before school began and at 2- and 6-month follow-up. Analyses indicated that, among males, the adjusted mean weekly alcohol use was lower in the SG than the control condition (1.89 vs. 2.72, p = .041). Among females, the adjusted mean weekly alcohol use was lower in the MG than the SG (1.60 vs. 2.44, p = .021) and control condition (1.60 vs. 2.27, p = .056). Further research should identify underlying mechanisms for effective alcohol behavior change among male and female wing-mates.
一项旨在减少大学生饮酒及二手影响的干预措施进行了测试。美国中大西洋地区一所大型公立大学的新生宿舍区被分配到单性别(SG)或混合性别(MG)的信息-动机-行为(IMB)工作坊,这些工作坊在开学的头几周实施,还有一个对照条件。在开学前以及随访2个月和6个月时对学生进行了调查。分析表明,在男性中,SG组调整后的平均每周饮酒量低于对照组(1.89对2.72,p = 0.041)。在女性中,MG组调整后的平均每周饮酒量低于SG组(1.60对2.44,p = 0.021)和对照组(1.60对2.27,p = 0.056)。进一步的研究应确定男女室友有效改变饮酒行为的潜在机制。
