In its 2002 report on college drinking, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism describes U.S. college campuses as supporting a culture of drinking.

Participating…

Hussong, Andrea M.; Huang, Wenjing; Curran, Patrick J.; Chassin, Laurie; Zucker, Robert A. – Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, 2010

Using a multilevel modeling approach, we tested whether children aged 2…
