College Students may Not Let Tipsy Female Pals Engage in Risky Sex
Thirdly they would try direct confrontation.
To protect their friends from dangerous situations, the study participants said they would directly confront their friends.
This includes specifically telling their friends that they need to leave, or physically removing them from the situation.
"Our research suggests that the claim that college students routinely engage in risky sexual behaviour while intoxicated may be exaggerated," Linda C. Lederman, a professor of communication at Arizona State University, one of the study authors, said.
Relational closeness or how well the participants know both their friends and male acquaintance plays a significant role in the students' decisions.
The study participants reported that they are more likely to step in and protect a friend during a risky situation.

The research has been published in "Friends Don't Let Jane Hook Up Drunk: A Qualitative Analysis of Participation in a Simulation of College Drinking-Related Decisions," which appears in Communication Education, Volume 59, a journal of the National Communication Association.
