This study examines the effect of first-generation college student status on students’ sense of belonging, and whether remote learning moderates this effect.

As such, additional research examining this unique, risky set of behaviors is warranted. Consequently, the present study aimed to address gaps in the literature by further examining the risks associated with drinking-related eating restrictions and testing trait factors related …
