Abstract:
This study analyzed the impact of a medical amnesty policy and an online alcohol poisoning video on college students’ intentions to seek help when witnessing alcohol poisoning symptoms. Students were randomly assigned to receive an amnesty policy, alcohol poisoning video, or both. The group that received both treatments was most likely to seek help. Females, abstainers, and those not previously exposed to an alcohol poisoning situation were more likely to seek help.
