Description
Binge drinking is a common problem found in college students, which can harm peers. The national Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines binge drinking as a “pattern of drinking that brings a person’s blood alcohol concentration to 0.08 grams percent or above”. Over time, binge drinking in college caused consequences for students, such as, poor academics, and health problems. The purpose of my study is to evaluate how stress factors, such as environment and peer relationships negatively affects genders’ drinking habits in college students. I will be using a questionnaire for my primary analysis and data sets from the CDC for my secondary analysis.
