Guided by Social Cognitive Theory the authors considered an environmental influence on self-efficacy may precede the influence of self-efficacy on behavior. To examine these relationships students (n1⁄4988) on 13 campuses provided addresses and completed surveys. Lists of active liquor licenses were obtained from government agencies. Geographic Information Systems software was used to calculate the number of alcohol outlets within a 2-5 minute walk, 5-10 minute walk, and 10-15 minute walk of where students live. Selfefficacy score was obtained by summing self-efficacy to reduce alcohol consumption, not drink alcohol at all, and drink only at special occasions (Cronbach a1⁄40.87). Alcohol consumption patterns were compared to the recommendations of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). The Cochran Armitage Test for Trend indicated that as the number of alcohol outlets within a 2-5 minute walk, 5-10 minute walk, and 10-15 minute walk of where students live increased, the lower their self-efficacy (p |
