| dc.description.abstract | This study explored the relationships among alcohol use, knowledge related to alcohol, and major (grouped by college). Participants consisted of 134 students recruited from a psychology research pool. The participants completed a measure about alcohol use (AUDIT-C) and a measure about knowledge related to alcohol (SAQ). This study found that gender was not significantly related to alcohol use; however, there was a significant difference between genders for alcohol-related knowledge in the overall sample. Men were found to have more knowledge related to alcohol than women. Additionally, this study found a statistically significant difference for alcohol use by college. The students in the College of Basic and Applied Sciences endorsed consuming more alcohol than the students in the College of Behavioral and Health Sciences. There was no difference found on knowledge related to alcohol by college. Lastly, there were positive correlations found between alcohol use and knowledge related to alcohol. | |
