The role of drinking locations in university student drinking: Findings from a national web-based survey

Predictors of Drinking Behaviour Among Adolescents and Young Adults: A New Psychosocial Control Perspective

“…Indeed, it is considered normative to drink within the university environment, particularly for those living on campus (Kypri et al, 2010). This is reflected by the relatively high AUDIT cut-off scores for hazardous or harmful alcohol use obtained among the young adult cohort in the current study.…”

“…Though low school connectedness predicted problem drinking for 13 to 14 year olds, high levels of school connectedness were found to predict problem drinking among university students. This finding reflects the normative nature of drinking on university campuses (Kypri et al, 2010), and demonstrates that the revised psychosocial model requires consideration within the broader sociocultural context. Impulsivity was found to predict problem drinking for all Covariates Gender Impulsivity Empathy Sensation seeking Age group 13-14: -.12 Age group 18-20: -.12 Age group 21-24: -.16…”

Public participation in local alcohol regulation: Findings from a survey ofNewZealand communities

“…There were four north island areas (North Shore, Hamilton, Palmerston North and Wellington) and three south island areas (Selwyn District, Dunedin and Alexandra) selected for a project examining modifiable determinants of hazardous drinking among university students at campuses located in the first six of these areas [8]. It was recognised that many determinants of student drinking are nominally under the control of local government (e.g.…”

Consequences of concurrent and simultaneous amphetamine-type stimulant and alcohol use among young adults: hazardous drinking, antisocial behaviour, and contact with police

“…Cross-sectional research has shown a well-documented link between attendance at licensed venues (e.g., pubs and bars) and increased alcohol consumption (Kypri et al, 2010). Research suggests that this cross-sectional association may be influenced not only by the availability of alcohol in these venues but also by particular aspects of their design and management , and other situational factors including the size of the drinking group and group pressure to drink (Knibbe, Oostveen, & van de Goor, 1991).…”

“…ATS users who frequently attended nightclubs (at least monthly) during the early study phases had increased odds of very high levels of alcohol use at 30 months, independently of baseline alcohol use and propensity for attending parties. It is already understood that attendance at licensed venues, especially pubs and bars, is linked with increased alcohol consumption among young adults (see Kypri, Paschall, Langley, Baxter, & Bourdeau, 2010). The strength of this association may be dependent not only on the availability of alcohol but also aspects of the design and management of licensed venues Van Havere et al, 2011).…”
