Reducing DUI among US College Students: Results of an Environmental Prevention Trial

This article describes how driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol is among the most common and serious alcohol-related problems currently experienced by U.S. college students. The article discusses how community-based prevention trials using environmental approaches to DUI prevention have been effective in reducing DUI. Such interventions remain untested in college settings and this study is the first to test the efficacy of an environmental prevention campaign for reducing DUI among college students.
