A cross-sectional study was conducted among 306 students using questionnaires and the Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test—Youth screening tool. The associations between binge drinking and risk factors were analyzed by generalized linear models. Our results showed current prevalence rates of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs use were 56.9%, 22.9%, and 2.3%, respectively. Multivariate analyses showed that being a binge drinker was significantly associated with low self-efficacy, high sensation seeking, moderate to high smoking risk, and low grade point average. 2018-04-25T10:13:43Z 2018-04-25T10:13:43Z 2018-02-14 Journal 15332659 15332640 2-s2.0-85042112549 10.1080/15332640.2018.1429974 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=85042112549&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/48534
