This journal want to find out the extent of alcohol use on academic performance of university students. It includes a sample size of 46 students, mean age is 21 years from three major universities. All paticipants received questionnaire related to alcohol questions and examination scores. This study shows a negative correlation relationship between alcohol use and academic performance. I use it in my analysis to compare three different studies on the relationship between Alcohol use and academic performance. This is the study which has the smallest sample size. I think it could be a controversy to use it as the main evidence to show that alcohol may have negative influence on academic performance.
Porter, Stephen R. and John Pryor. "The Effects of Heavy Episodic Alcohol Use on Student Engagement, Academic Performance, and Time Use." Journal of College Student Development 48 (2007): 455-467.
This journal uses survey to examine the connection between heavy episodic alcohol use and student engagement. In this case, it collect data from over 40,000 students at 28 selective private colleges. In the conclusion, the study finds out a strong negative effects of heavy episodic drinking are on student-faculty interaction. However, this study only emphasizes on heavy Alcohol use. It is hard to see if there is significant difference between alcohol and non-alcohol users. I also plan to use this source to compare other study on alcohol use.

This journal is talking about the associations between alcohol use and academic performance, sleep and academic performance, and alcohol use and sleep. The personal interview surveys were conducted with a random sample of 236 students (124 women) at a liberal arts college. Despite the conclusion of this journal, this study has a fairly limited sample size in one area. I plan to use it for making connection between alcohol consumption and sleep. Both two are variables which have influence on academic performance.
