Stress, self-compassion, and well-being during the transition to college

Emily Kroshus et al.

Summary: The study found that on average, college freshmen experienced moderate increases in depression and anxiety from the summer before college through the spring, with wide variability across students and no clear patterning by demographic groups. Self-compassion was identified as the strongest and most consistent predictor of successful transitions. Chronic stressors were strongly predictive of more negative outcomes, and self-compassion and coping skills did not buffer their effects. People most likely to experience chronic stressors over the school year included women, people who identify as sexual minorities, and first-generation students.

Alcohol Consumption among Freshman College Students in Spain: Individual and Pooled Analyses of Three Cross-Sectional Surveys (2005, 2012 and 2016)

Alicia Busto Miramontes et al.

Summary: The prevalence rates of heavy episodic drinking and risky consumption increased among female freshman college students across 2005, 2012 and 2016, but remained statistically similar among male students. Factors such as high maternal education level, living away from parental home, early onset of alcohol use and positive expectancies about drinking were associated with higher prevalence of risky consumption. Positive expectancies and early onset of alcohol use were linked to higher rates of heavy episodic drinking. Students recruited in 2012 and 2016 were found to be protected against risky consumption compared to those recruited in 2005.

Cannabis Policy Changes and Adolescent Cannabis Use: Evidence from Europe

Elisa Benedetti et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the impact of cannabis policy reforms on the availability and patterns of cannabis use among adolescents in European countries. The findings suggest that certain types of policy reforms can influence the prevalence of cannabis use, with restrictive interventions reducing general use prevalence and more liberal reforms potentially leading to an increase in initiation of cannabis use among students. However, there is no evidence of policy changes affecting the share of frequent users.

Student health behavior and academic performance

Peter R. Reuter et al.

Summary: The study found positive associations between breakfast consumption, physical activity, and strength training and self-reported GPA, and negative associations between the hours of sleep per night, hours worked per week, fast food and energy drinks consumption, and use of marijuana, alcohol and electronic vaping products. The effect sizes for these health behaviors were low, but the significant effect of vaping on GPA suggests further exploration is needed. Education on the effects of health behavior choices is recommended for students.
