Abstract

Two studies evaluated the implementation of a stricter campus underage drinking policy on service utilization and bystander helping behaviors for alcohol-related medical emergencies. A program evaluation (Study 1) examined campus emergency medical service logs assessing changes in call volume and service utilization, finding a 30% reduction in call volume postpolicy change. Study 2 provided a qualitative data summarizing campus first responder (N = 35) accounts of off-duty alcohol-related emergency calls. Off-duty calls increased postpolicy change and thematic analyses indicated they were (a) motivated by fear of campus sanctions, (b) often yielded delays or failures to contact campus emergency staff, and (c) resulted from student misunderstandings of policy implications for bystander helpers. Findings highlight potential challenges in executing environmental strategies to reduce college drinking.
大学酒精政策变化对旁观者对酒精相关医疗紧急事件反应的影响
两项研究评估了更严格的校园未成年人饮酒政策在酒精相关医疗紧急情况下的服务利用和旁观者帮助行为的实施情况。一项项目评估(研究1)检查了校园紧急医疗服务日志,评估了呼叫量和服务利用率的变化,发现政策变化后呼叫量减少了30%。研究2提供了一个定性数据,总结了校园第一反应者(N = 35)下班后与酒精有关的紧急电话。下班电话增加了政策后的变化,主题分析表明,这些电话(a)是出于对校园制裁的恐惧,(b)经常导致延误或未能联系校园应急人员,(c)是由于学生对政策对旁观者助手的影响误解。研究结果突出了在执行减少大学饮酒的环境战略方面的潜在挑战。
