The past 5 years have brought about the greatest increase in bank branch construction in US history. Two factors are driving the rapid expansion of US branch networks. Formost is the realization that consumers choose banking providers largely on the basis of convenience of locations. Sociological shifts are also creating new potential banking locations at a rapid pace. In the community banking industry segment, branching is often driven by the need to protect franchises, especially in the situation in which formerly rural areas become suburbs to expanding metros. Another frequent source of community bank expansion is a desire to enter a higher growth market area. Before committing to a new branch location, bankers must perform thorough demographic and copetitive analysis of all proposed...

In a secondary analysis of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, the present article explored whether drinking behaviors, early behavioral problems, risk-taking and demographic variables were differentially associated with alcohol-related aggression (arguments or fights after drinking) and non-alcohol-related violent perpetration (hitting or attacking someone) among drinkers aged 17 to 21. The most notable finding was that heavy episodic drinking and usual drinking location were significantly associated with arguments or fights after drinking but not with attacking or hurting someone, suggesting that drinking behaviors are risk factors that are specific to alcohol-related aggression; however, because identical measures of aggression were not used, further research is requ...
