本研究的目的是通过自我决定理论(SDT)描述大学生负责任的饮酒动机,对冲动各方面与饮酒结果之间的关系进行初步调查。参与者(N= 2808)是对美国8个州的10所大学的大学生饮酒的多地点调查的一部分,这些大学生报告了过去一个月的饮酒情况。结构方程模型检验所有可能的间接关联的结果同时表明,三分之一(60个中的20个)的间接关联具有统计学意义(p<.01)。得分较高的维度代表较高的冲动(消极/积极紧迫感),与较多的内化动机(自主动机和内在性调节)负相关,与较少的内化动机(外部调节和自我激励)正相关。得分较高的方面代表较低的冲动(毅力和预谋),表现出与负责任的饮酒动机相反的关联模式。反过来,内化动机越多,保护性行为策略的使用频率越高,酒精使用严重程度越低,与酒精相关的负面后果越少;内化动机越少,与这些酒精结果的关联就越相反。目前的发现应该通过适当测试中介的实验和纵向研究来重复,但支持从冲动到酒精结果的动机路径的新假说,如果未来的研究进一步支持的话,这可能会为干预目标提供洞察。
The aim of this study was to conduct a preliminary investigation of the associations between facets of impulsivity and alcohol outcomes through motives for drinking responsibly described by self-determination theory (SDT) among college students. Participants (N= 2808) were part of a multisite investigation of college student drinking across 10 universities in 8 states in the USA who reported past-month drinking. Results of a structural equation model testing all possible indirect associations simultaneously indicated that one-third (20 out of 60) of the indirect associations were statistically significant (p<.01). Facets with higher scores representing higher impulsivity (negative/positive urgency) were negatively associated with more internalized motives (autonomous motivation and introjected regulation) and positively associated with less internalized motives (external regulation and amotivation) for drinking responsibly. Facets with higher scores representing lower impulsivity (perseverance and premeditation) demonstrated opposite patterns of associations with motives for drinking responsibly. In turn, more internalized motives were related to higher frequency of protective behavioral strategies use, lower alcohol use severity, and fewer negative alcohol-related consequences; less internalized motives demonstrated an opposite pattern of associations with these alcohol outcomes. The present findings should be replicated using experimental and longitudinal studies for appropriately testing mediation but offer support for a novel hypothesis for motivational pathways from impulsivity to alcohol outcomes that may provide insight into intervention targets, if further supported by future research.
