Changing Perceptions of Peer Norms as a Drinking Reduction Program for College Students.
Barnett, Lisa A.; And Others
Journal of Alcohol and Drug Education, v41 n2 p39-62 Win 1996
Assigned 1,426 university students to four intervention groups. A "norm-setting" intervention program--used to study perceptions and expectations of drinking--was of chief interest. This group was associated with the greatest reductions in the drinking norms attributed to the student body, close friends, living groups, and parents. (RJM)
