1. Alcohol Consumption and Distance from Home

 
April 12, 2010

Dear participant,


You will be completing a survey about alcohol consumption. The survey will take about five minutes. The goal of this study is to see if students who live further away from their permanent home consume more alcohol. Participation in this study is voluntary. Your responses to this survey will remain anonymous. There are minimal risks to participating in this study and some questions might make you uncomfortable. If at any time you feel uncomfortable with a question, you may leave it blank. You will benefit from this survey by knowing you have assisted with expanding current research on the topic of college drinking. You must be at least 18. If you have questions about the study you can contact the supervising researcher, Dr. Mark Chachich (mchachich@towson.edu), the principle researcher, Gina Davis (gdaivs1@students.towson.edu), or Dr. Patricia Alt, the Chairperson of the Institutional Review Board for the Protection of Human Participants at Towson University (410-704-2236). Thank you for your participation.

Thank You,

Gina Davis
