abstract="Objectives: To examine variable frequencies and relationships between students' intentions and confidence with their intervention. Methods: Incoming freshmen (509 of 1155 students responded) completed a survey 2 months into college. Results: Most (75.2%) students intervened into others' drinking, usually as a caretaker. Students reported more intention to intervene with others with whom they had more affiliation, and confidence with less intrusive intervention. Intention to intervene (b=0.36, SE=0.10, P&lt;0.001) and intervention confidence (b=0.27, SE=0.06, P&lt;0.001) correlated with intervention. Conclusions: With education to enhance their intention and confidence to intervene, first-year college students might be encouraged to intervene into others' social drinking.   <p>Language: en</p>",
