This literature review has three distinct purposes: first, to review the antecedents and risk factors of binge behaviors associated with college drinking; second, to review studies that measure prevention and intervention programs to determine the most favorable characteristics of successful prevention strategies and intervention programs; third, to identify and rate the most rigorous studies so that the reader can easily determine the scientific merit of studies that suggest correlations, predictions, and treatment effects in the area of college drinking. Studies with a rating greater than 3 are included in a composite table. Studies published between 1993 through 2001 are analyzed and rated according to study design, sample size, and sampling strategy.

KEY WORDS: substance abuse, academic performance, alcohol abuse, brief interventions, college campus
