Evaluating the New Mexico Alcohol Server Education Act
College Student Drinking & The Campus Environment: A Community Prevention Intervention


Robert Saltz, Ph.D. (Sociology), is a Senior Research Scientist and an Associate Director of the Prevention Research Center. Dr. Saltz's work has centered on ways in which drinking contexts may influence the risk of subsequent injury or death. He has conducted several studies on "responsible beverage service" programs that seek to have bar and restaurant personnel intervene to reduce the risk of intoxication or of driving while impaired. Other research projects have included drinking among college students, work-related drinking among public-sector employees, developing indicators of drinking problems among women, and the design and implementation of comprehensive community prevention interventions to reduce alcohol-involved trauma. Prior to PRC's founding in 1983, Bob worked on a study of social networks among people recovering from heroin addiction.
