Presented: “Longitudinal Patterns of Drug Exposure Opportunity and Use Among College Students: Implications for Early Intervention.”

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. For more information go to: www.collegelifestudy.umd.edu
