Heavy alcohol consumption among college students can be problematic, particularly for student-athletes. According to prior research discussed in this study, college athletes have higher binge drinking rates than non-athletes and tend to have higher levels of intoxication when they drink, subsequently, athletes are more likely to experience alcohol-related harms and consequences. Additionally, research indicates that athletic team members often socialize around alcohol consumption and certain team characteristics may influence drinking behaviors. Therefore, this study examines the relationship between high-risk drinking and team cohesion among college athletes. The researcher collected data from 382 student-athletes from 14 teams at a public university in the mid-Atlantic region to study the strength of association between high-risk drinking and several predictor variables, including team cohesion, gender, race, class rank, and type of sport. Student-athletes participated in a classroom survey for the purpose of collecting demographic data, capturing binge-drinking rates using a single alcohol-screening question, and administering Carron, Brawley, and Widmeyer's (2002) Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ) to examine team cohesion. A binary logistic regression analysis was conducted to discern the level of association between variables by using an odds ratio to predict outcome probabilities. Results of the study indicate significance and predictive association between binge-drinking rates and two social cohesion items from the GEQ, as well as race and class rank. Frequency data found similar binge-drinking rates among male student-athletes (45.8%) and female student-athletes (45.6%), discovered junior and senior student-athletes participated in binge drinking at higher rates than sophomores and freshmen student-athletes, and found White student-athletes participate in binge-drinking at much higher rates. Findings from this study will serve to inform coaches, athletic directors, and student affairs professionals on issues associated with the relationship between student-athlete alcohol consumption and team cohesion, particularly as it relates to how student-athletes may socialize and bond around alcohol consumption.
