Social Norms Campaigns Each university

But did the samples change over the years?
YES for 1 and 2
Schl 1: Race/Ethnicity only % White % Hispanic
Schl 2: Everything! Age % Female % White % in Res Hall % Frat/Soro
YES for 3 and 4
Schl 3: Residence only % in Res Hall
Schl 4: Sex, Race, Residence % Female % White % in Res Hall
and YES for 5
Schl 5: Everything! Age % Female % White % in Res Hall % Frat/Soro
So, we controlled for everything in our analyses.
Linear Mixed Effects Models
Did perceptions change across years? Perception: ACHA-NCHA question Controlled for demographics Within each school
Did use change across years? Use: ACHA-NCHA question Controlled for demographics Within each school By perception

Limitations
Internal Validity Exposure not included in analysis Other interventions not included Related events not included Moderate to low sample response rates
External Validity Population characteristics Environmental characteristics Implementation fidelity
Conclusions
Misperceptions in all 5 schools Real world settings Diverse schools Actual drinks decreased in 4 of 5 “Gap” decreased in 2 of 5
Importance of longitudinal data Single year results unclear Effects & relationship only become
clear over the years
