Alcohol Research Group

Environment

ARG’s research on the environment and the individual drinker involves a number of contextual influences on a person’s drinking behavior and related problems. These influences are at all levels, from context of drinking, social situations surrounding the individual such as partners, social networks, and norms supporting more or less drinking, and harms from heavy drinkers (whether from strangers, acquaintances or family members), to neighborhood and community conditions such as neighborhood disadvantage and alcohol outlet density, to policies and regulations at all levels from local and state to federal alcohol and drug-related policies.
