背景:大学生运动员是一个高风险的饮酒群体,表现出更大的倾向,狂欢饮酒比他们的非运动同龄人。此外,随着校际体育活动的增加,酒精消费也在增加。然而,很少有研究调查参加非大学体育运动的学生的饮酒行为。目的:确定美国不同年龄段人群与酒精相关的行为和相关后果的差异。S.校队、俱乐部和校内运动员,以及非运动员的大学生。方法:对2011年全国大学健康评估(n = 29,939)的次要数据进行分析。结果如下:校内运动员比俱乐部运动员(M = 1.0,SD = 1.6),校际运动员(M = 0.9,SD = 1.5)和非运动员(M = 0.6,SD = 1.3)更频繁地酗酒(M = 1.1,SD = 1.7),并且也经历了更大的酒精相关后果。校内运动员在最后一次饮酒时饮酒最多(M = 4.1,SD = 4.0),血液酒精浓度(BAC)最高(M = 0.062,SD = 0.09)。与俱乐部和大学运动员比较[M = 0.8,SD = 1.4; t(8,131)=-9.6,p <.001],仅限校内运动员报告酗酒的频率明显更高(M = 1.2,SD = 1.7),并且在最近的饮酒事件中也达到了显著更高的BAC(M = 0.064,SD = 0.08)比有组织的体育运动员[M = 0.057,SD = 0.08; t(8,050)=-3.0,p =.003]。结论:校内运动员是一个比其他运动员和非运动员大学生饮酒风险更高的群体。未来的研究应该调查不同运动员群体之间饮酒差异的因素。
Background: Varsity student athletes are a high-risk drinking group, exhibiting a greater propensity to binge drink than their non-sport peers. Moreover, as intercollegiate athletic involvement increases, so too does alcohol consumption. There is little research, however, which examines drinking behaviors of students who participate in nonvarsity athletics. Objectives: Identify differences in alcohol-related behaviors and associated consequences among U. S. varsity, club, and intramural athletes, and nonathlete college students. Methods: Secondary data analysis of the 2011 National College Health Assessment (n = 29,939). Results: Intramural athletes binge drank more frequently (M = 1.1, SD = 1.7) than club athletes (M = 1.0, SD = 1.6), intercollegiate athletes (M = 0.9, SD = 1.5), and nonathletes (M = 0.6, SD = 1.3) and also experienced greater alcohol-related consequences. Intramural athletes consumed the most during their last drinking episode (M = 4.1, SD = 4.0) and reached the highest blood alcohol concentration (BAC) (M = 0.062, SD = 0.09). Compared to club and varsity athletes [M= 0.8, SD= 1.4; t (8,131)= -9.6, p < .001], intramural-only athletes reported binge drinking significantly more frequently (M = 1.2, SD = 1.7) and also reached significantly higher BACs during most recent drinking episode (M = 0.064, SD = 0.08) than organized sport athletes [M = 0.057, SD = 0.08; t (8,050) = -3.0, p = .003]. Conclusions: Intramural athletes represent a higher-risk drinking group than other athlete and nonathlete college students. Future research should investigate factors contributing to drinking differences among different athlete groups.
