As part of the requirements for experiential learning, our Spring 2018 Research Methods class has conducted an anonymous survey study. In this study, we asked a series of questions, including substance use, stress, personality, and personal habits. We hypothesize that people with higher self reports of neuroticism consume alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine with greater frequency than those who report less neuroticism. Secondly, we hypothesize that people who report higher stress levels demonstrate higher frequency of substance use. Finally, we predict that the frequency of substance use is positively correlated with the frequency of social gatherings. Data collection is ongoing for this project and will conclude in early March 2018.
