Using a national sample of college students drawn from Wave 3 of the National Study of Youth and Religion (NSYR), the current study investigates the protective effects of religious group membership, service attendance, and scripture reading on binge drinking. Specifically, the study examines whether or not any effects exist independent of overall religiousness and the extent to which peers mediate these associations. Findings reveal that religious group membership and scripture reading are associated with significant reductions in binge drinking and that service attendance has a marginally significant association, after controlling for religiousness. The association involving service attendance is mediated by the number of friends who use drugs or drink heavily. Implications of the findings are discussed and include potential policy applications such as devoting more resources to campus ministry offices as allies in promoting healthy behavior, as well as creating programs geared toward students across the religiousness spectrum, including those designed for “seekers” or “skeptics.”

宗教团体成员身份,勤务出席和经文阅读对大学生酗酒的保护作用

本次研究使用了《国家青年与宗教研究》(NSYR)第3轮中抽取的全国大学生样本,调查了宗教团体成员,勤务人员和经文阅读对暴饮酒的保护作用。具体而言,该研究检查了是否存在任何影响,而这些影响是否独立于整体宗教信仰以及同伴在多大程度上调解了这些联想。研究结果表明,宗教团体的成员资格和经文阅读与狂饮的显着减少有关,而且在控制了宗教信仰之后,勤务人员的出席率与边际显着相关。涉及服务出席的协会是由吸毒或大量饮酒的朋友人数介导的。
