Looking for A Way Out!
--Alcohol Intervention
Introduction:
I am interested in talking about how can university students moderate drinking and reject alcohol abuse? The most important aspect for this research question can concluded by the intervention on alcohol using. Although, I will display some bad effect or seriously consequences on alcohol for the college students but as my topic mentioned, I am hoping to show some specific and useful ways on how to prevent oneself on alcohol using.
Background Section: Orienting Your Readers
The history of alcohol abuses in college student had to perusing since the college became exited. Students tend to use alcohol as a tool for celebrating or as a cure for sadness and depression. This issue had been got much attention since a long time age. Many researchers had down many kinds of researches of the bed influences of this issue. In addition, they also found a lot of effective solutions on this problem. People follow their-researches and select the valuable idea, then establish some alcoholics anonymous or psychological counseling services. I think article written by Bridges, Ledetra S., and Manoj Sharma is wonderful because they found out alcohol consumption can be reducing by a sufficient process. Although some people may state that alcohol is a good thing for college students, but I have to arguing that, in the most time, the bad influences on alcohol for college students were much bigger than the pleasant part on it.
Importance of the Issue
In Dager and Beth's research, they separate the participants in to two groups. They use the difference between moderate and heavy drinkers to measure and predict the subsequent transition to heavy drinking in college students. They concluded that the substantiate of alcohol use in United State is enhance. Researcher Goldstein and Pilgrim focus their point on the negative effective of alcohol of teenage brain. They developed the Concentration Memory Task. They found the higher alcohol consumption scores were associated with impaired performance on broader range of memory tests. Paul J. Gruenewald and Christina Mair did a research on the risks for physiological problems related to alcohol use in college students. They set their experiment through the drinking frequency, volume and average drinking quantity. They took a long period to accomplish this research and measured five physiological problems related to alcohol use. This article is special than the others. Because this paper is dynamic determinants of drinking behaviors have direct implications for assessments of risks for problems related to alcohol use. The comparison of the drinking level and the conclusion of the result are useful for my research question. I think all these articles above are very good researches because all of them mentioned the addition effect on the problem of alcohol abuse in college students. Besides, those are some very good points to convince you and everyone interfere with alcohol abuse. In addition, those articles are very academically on neuron psychology. It introduces an idea that alcohol abuse has some sort of relative with hippocampus in human's brain. Some articles give a deep prove on detailed examinations of quantitative relationships between drinking contexts and drinking problems. This study characterized the relationship between neural response to alcohol picture cues and escalating drinking among college students. Participants underwent scanning during their first college year and completed monthly substance use surveys over the following year. They capturing the period of greatest susceptibility to intensifying drinking. In my point of view of the word importance is that a problem was already prevalent exist in the population and made some serious consequences in the results. The impact on alcohol abuse in college students on health was extremely big. For example, researchers Goldstein and Pilgrim did a very academically research paper on the effect of alcohol on neuron psychology. It introduces an idea that alcohol abuse has some sort of relative with hippocampus in human's brain. I am really interested in the comparison between alcohol user and non-alcohol user's effective of their brain and neuron because I am a college student and I know how important it is, if students have a clear and health brine.
