Dr. Arria’s seminar described the methods and results of a prospective
longitudinal study of more than 1,200 college students. The study measured
a wide array of health risk behaviors, including alcohol and other illicit
drug use during college. Understanding the patterns and predictors of
changes in these health behaviors can help shape intervention strategies.
