摘要
ObjectiveTest the hypothesis that smoking, fast-food consumption, and binge drinking were negatively associated with academic performance in Canadian undergraduate students.ParticipantsUndergraduate students across Canada [n = 411 (335 & FEMALE;) aged: 22 & PLUSMN; 4 years] completed a questionnaire regarding their lifestyle behaviors and academic grades.MethodsRelationships between lifestyle behaviors and academic performance were assessed via covariate-adjusted multiple regressions. Mediation models were used to test whether significant relationships between smoking/fast-food and grades were explained by binge drinking.ResultsSmoking (& beta;= -4.00, p < .001) and binge drinking (& beta;= -1.98, p = .002) were independent predictors of grades (average: 84 & PLUSMN; 8%). Binge drinking partially mediated the relationships between smoking (indirect effect & beta;= -1.19, 95%CI [-2.49, -0.08] and fast-food consumption (indirect effect: & beta;= -.75, 95%CI [-1.20, -0.29]), with grades.ConclusionsThese findings highlight the negative influence of binge drinking, smoking, and fast-food consumption on academic success, with binge drinking as a partial mediator of these relationships.
