Introduction
The ACHA-National College Health Assessment II (ACHA-NCHA II) is a national
research survey organized by the American College Health Association (ACHA) to
assist college health service providers, health educators, counselors, and administrators
in collecting data about their students' habits, behaviors, and perceptions on the most
prevalent health topics.
ACHA initiated the original ACHA-NCHA in 2000 and the instrument was used
nation wide through the spring 2008 data collection period. The ACHA-NCHA now
provides the largest known comprehensive data set on the health of college students,
providing the college health and higher education fields with a vast spectrum of
information on student health.
The revised survey, the ACHA-NCHA-II, was developed following a thorough pilot
testing process. Although the general categories of information for which data are
collected remain the same between the original ACHA-NCHA and this revised survey,
a number of questions have been modified, and new questions have been added to
monitor a variety of health constructs. Specific revisions include updated lists of illegal
drugs, contraceptive methods, and vaccines. New items have been added to capture
sleep behaviors, self-injury, the use/abuse of prescription drugs and additional mental
health issues.
Please note the ACHA-NCHA II is not appropriate for trend comparison of items
from the original ACHA-NCHA survey. A new baseline for ACHA-NCHA II began
in the fall of 2008. Directly comparing pre- and post-redesign estimates on similar data
points, without taking into account the impact of the survey’s redesign, might lead to
an erroneous conclusion. Documentation regarding the results of the pilot study and
differences between the instruments can be obtained at the ACHA-NCHA website,
www.acha-ncha.org.
For additional information about the survey’s development, design, and methodology,
email Mary Hoban, PhD, CHES, (mhoban@acha.org), E. Victor Leino, PhD
(vleino@acha.org), or visit www.acha-ncha.org.
Note on use of data:
Missing values have been excluded from analysis. Students responding "not
applicable" were excluded from several analyses, which are specifically noted
throughout this document. All response categories were included, including "don't
know" or "0" unless otherwise noted.
This Executive Summary highlights results of the ACHA-NCHA II Spring 2013
survey for University of Northern Iowa consisting of 561 respondents.
The overall response proportion was 14.0%.

5.3 % of college students reported driving after having 5 or more drinks in the last 30 days.*
28.0 % of college students reported driving after having any alcohol in the last 30 days.*
*Students responding "N/A, don't drive" and "N/A don't drink" were excluded from this analysis.
Estimated Blood Alcohol Concentration (or eBAC) of college students reporting 1 or more drinks
the last time they "partied" or socialized. Students reporting 0 drinks were excluded from the analysis.
Due to the improbability of a student surviving a drinking episode resulting in an extremely high eBAC,
all students with an eBAC of 0.50 or higher are also omitted from these eBAC figures. eBAC is
an estimated figure based on the reported number of drinks consumed during the last time they
"partied" or socialized, their approximate time of consumption, sex, weight, and the average rate
of ethanol metabolism.
