About the Course:
Participation in residential learning communities (RLCs) is associated with lower rates of alcohol consumption among college students. This study used variable- and pattern-centered analytic approaches to examine the influence of RLCs on the drinking behavior of students during their first two years in college.
This course is based on the reading-based online article, Effects of Residential Learning Communities on Drinking Trajectories During the First Two Years of College created by Sean Esteban McCabe, Ph.D., Carol J. Boyd, Ph.D., James E. Lange, Ph.D., Mark B. Reed, Ph.D., Marcia S. Scott, Ph.D., and James A. Cranford, Ph.D. in 2009.
