College Students' Alcohol and Substance Use: Religiosity as a Protective Factor
Abbott, Jessica; Lamphere, ReneƩ; McGrath, Shelly A.
Journal of Alcohol and Drug Education, v63 n3 p61-87 Dec 2019
In this paper, we examined the extent to which one's own religiosity, as well as that of her or his peers, has on alcohol and substance use among undergraduate students at a medium-sized public university in the south-eastern United States. Findings indicate that though peer religiosity significantly affects substance use, one's own religiosity is not a significant predictor of substance use. Discussion of results, limitations of the study, and directions for future research are also discussed.
