Résumé :
The aims of this study were twofold: a) to investigate the impact of higher education institutional alcohol-control policies on students' drinking, and b) to determine whether a differential exposure to such policies based on students' place of residence (on/off campus) was a significant source of variability in their drinking practices and patterns. The data was drawn from the 2004 Canadian Campus Survey, a large epidemiological survey examining the social determinants of addiction and mental health among full-time undergraduates enrolled in Canadian universities (N = 4,358). Multilevel analyses performed on samples stratified by place of residence evaluated differences in explanatory factors for drinking practices (probability of drinking on campus) and patterns (usual drinking quantity). Overall, alcohol-control policies distinctively contributed to explain outcomes among campus residents and off-campus residents. Results suggest that the place of residence is an important determinant modulating students' drinking outcomes and interactions with higher education institutions.
