An Analysis of the Effects of a Program To Reduce Heavy Drinking among College Students.
Peeler, Colin M.; Far, Jeanne; Miller, John; Brigham, Thomas A.
Journal of Alcohol and Drug Education, v45 n2 p39-54 Win 2000
Examines the effects of a Peer Norms Correction (PNC) procedure on college students' perceptions of campus drinking and their actual drinking behavior. Results suggest that PNC may be useful in correcting misperceptions about the norms for alcohol use but not for decreasing heavy drinking among college students. (Contains 28 references and 2 tables.) (Author/GCP)
