Drunkorexia: An Exploratory Investigation of College Students With Alcohol-Related Infractions

Abstract

The construct of drunkorexia, caloric restriction prior to or during alcohol consumption, was examined in 411 college students who experienced alcohol-related infractions. Analyses were conducted to examine differences in demographic prevalence distributions, alcohol-related consequences, and alcohol consumption between a subsample of participants who reported drunkorexia behaviors and a subsample who did not.
