Abstract
The present study examined the characteristics of drinking games (DG). Study participants were 164 female college students (Mean age=20; 18-23 years) who completed self-report measures of DG participation and alcohol-related behaviors. Results showed variations in popularity, type of alcohol consumed, and intoxication levels across DG. Findings also revealed that DG involvement (frequency of participation, amount consumed, perceived intoxication, and type of alcoholic beverage consumed) were associated with hazardous alcohol use. Prevention efforts and future research implications are discussed.Entities:
