Results from the 1995 National College Health Risk Behavior Survey, which monitored health risk behaviors among US college and university undergraduates, suggest that many students' increase their likelihood of adverse outcomes. During 30 days preceding survey, 34% participants had consumed five or more alcoholic drinks on at least one occasion, 27% drunk alcohol driven a car. Thirty-one percent smoked cigarettes regularly during lifetimes, 49% ever used marijuana, 30% condom last sexual...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a greenhouse gas and the main anthropogenic emission contributing to stratospheric ozone depletion. Agricultural soils dominate N2O emissions but there very limited information specifically relating relative soil diffusivity (Dp/Do) emissions. This study was conducted determine effects of bulk density (ρb) matric potential (ψ) on Dp/Do associated fluxes in presence denitrification substrates. The interaction between ρb ψ investigated using 880 repacked cores that were...

BACKGROUND. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of fatality and acquired disability in adolescents. Young, inexperienced drivers overrepresented crashes. OBJECTIVE. Our goal was to explore adolescent perspective on driving safety provide a better understanding factors that influence teenagers' exposure hazards. METHODS. Adolescents generated, prioritized, explained their viewpoint by using teen-centered method. These viewpoints were obtained from school-based nationally...

This study examined whether the prevalence of self-reported health risk behaviors among high school students varied by survey setting (school versus home) and mode administration (paper pencil computer). Students in grades 9 11 were assigned randomly to one four conditions—school paper-and-pencil instrument (PAPI), computer-assisted self-interview (CASI), home PAPI, CASI. During spring 2004, 4,506 completed identically worded questionnaires based on Youth Risk Behavior Survey questionnaire....
