这项研究评估了18岁至21岁青少年在酒精和大麻影响下驾驶的流行率，并考察了醉酒驾驶与消费、冒险/冲动倾向、消极的个人状态、压力以及使用酒精和其他药物来应对问题之间的跨时间关系。在两个时间点收集了556名年龄分别为18岁和21岁的男性和女性的自我报告数据。数据表明，大多数年轻人至少至少有一次酒后驾车、吸食大麻和开车的经历。8种驾驶行为与消费变量的相关分析表明，药物使用频率与酒后驾车频率(DWI)密切相关。回归分析表明，应对使用物质是影响驾驶的最强预测因素。路径模型检验了压力、消极状态和冒险取向(T1)在应对使用(T2)中介影响下对驾驶的影响。结果表明，冒险取向是对工作负荷的最强预测因子，无论是直接的还是间接的(通过应对方式)。研究结果表明，驾驶障碍可能是一种全球冒险行为综合症的一部分，是一种积极参与的行为，通常由那些经常使用酒精和其他药物来应对问题的人参与。
This study assessed the prevalence of driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana among a sample of 18 and 21 years old and examined the across-time relationship between intoxicated driving and consumption, risk-taking/impulsive orientation, negative intrapersonal state, stress and use of alcohol and other drugs to cope with problems. Self-report data were collected from 556 men and women, ages 18 and 21, at two points in time. The data indicated that at least a minimum level of drinking and driving, as well as smoking marijauna and driving, is engaged in at least once for the majority of youth. Correlations between eight driving behaviors and consumption variables indicated that frequency of substance use was strongly related to frequency of driving while intoxicated (DWI). Regression analyses revealed that coping use of substances was the strongest predictor of driving under the influence. A path model examining the effect of stress, negative states and risk-taking orientations (T1) on driving under the influence as mediated through coping use (T2) was tested. Results showed that risk-taking orientation was the strongest predictor of DWI, both directly and indirectly (as mediated through coping use). Findings suggest that impaired driving may be part of a global syndrome of risk-taking behavior and is an actively engaged in most often by those who frequently use alcohol and other drugs to cope with problems.
