Binge Drinking in Adults

This AP/Columbus Dispatch article entitled "CDC: Young Adults Down 9 Drinks When They Binge" finds that the average college-aged adult will average 9 drinks when they get drunk. Binge drinking is considered anything over 4-5 drinks at a time. One out of every 4 adults between the ages of 18-34 say they binge drink at least once a month. Why do you think young adults binge drink? What factors contribute to binge drinking?
