Binge drinking could be identified by various definitions or how an individual would interpret it. As for students, they would define it as “a way of drinking non-stop, just for fun”, or “drinking excessively to the point of being drunk”. Binge drinking can be interpreted in a scientific form, such as "The NIAAA defines binge drinking as a pattern of alcohol consumption that brings the blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to 0.08 g/dL . This usually happens after 4 drinks for women and 5 drinks for men. in about 2 hours (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism)." There is said to be an overheating between both sexes, men and women, as to how alcohol is consumed in a time frame given The researchers came to the conclusion that excessive drinking is defined and how to get a better result before and after, being influenced by the alcohol consumption in students The reason for this procedure for my experiment would be. that I would like to see the behavior change, the influences triggered, and the cause and effect tracked over a period of time. During this time, students would become in transition from being a high school graduate student to a. freshman and throughout their student years There may be varying amounts of variables used for this research assignment Gender, class status, race, drinking period, parental influences and. motivators, etc. This is how an individual would like to know the background of excessive alcohol consumption and what this study will be used for. Longitudinal study design influences the study of trends which also measures over time and, as a characteristic of a population is monitored over time. It's like getting a subset of the population that would represent the sum of the overall population. The overall population, which is a larger whole, would in this case be the total students of the public university, because it would be impossible to obtain the total capacity of the university. Based on William Paterson's website, it would provide given information that may not be up to date, but it is a summary of the facts. “Located on 370 wooded acres in Wayne and North Haledon, New Jersey, the campus is just three miles from historic Paterson Falls and just 20 miles from the rich cultural, artistic and commercial life of New York City The university has more than 11,000 students. During the fall 2014 semester, 9,619 undergraduate students and 1,429 graduate students were enrolled. The scientific results to be used are the following variables which constitute a set. logic of attributes. Attributes are a characteristic or quality of something For example, the attributes of my study would be the ages of both sexes of the students and parents Indeed, if there is a chance of. inherit drinking behavior from adolescence to young adulthood “The implication of the level of measurement would be that analyzes require a minimum level of measurement and that some variables can be treated as multiple levels of measurement..
