目的：本研究调查不同饮酒模式的人口统计学、个性和心理健康之间的相关性。设计：卑尔根市四所最大高等教育机构的学生被邀请通过电子邮件填写一份基于互联网的调查问卷。最终样本量为 1,236 人 (39.4%)，平均年龄 24.9 岁 (SD = 6.5)，其中 63.3% 为女性。该调查包括酒精使用障碍识别测试（AUDIT）以及有关人口统计、人格特征以及抑郁和焦虑症状的问题。二元逻辑回归用于识别不同饮酒模式的相关性。结果：共有53.0%的学生AUDIT分数在8分或以上（即危险饮酒）。作为土生土长的挪威人、男性、单身、没有孩子、无宗教信仰、外向、不认真、不太愿意接受经验，与较高的审计分数、频繁饮酒和酗酒有关。父母酗酒或吸毒会增加酗酒的几率，但这一因素与频繁饮酒无关。在神经质和开放性方面得分较高的学生报告饮酒问题的可能性较小。结论：大多数学生报告说，如果他们坚持酗酒，就会造成伤害。这强调需要检查学生饮酒的长期后果。
Aims: This study investigates demographic, personality, and psychological health correlates of different drinking patterns. Design: Students at the four largest institutions of higher education in Bergen municipality were invited via email to complete an internet-based questionnaire. The final sample size was I 1,236 (39.4%), mean age 24.9 years (SD = 6.5), and 63.3% were women. The survey included the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) and questions about demographics, personality traits, and symptoms of depression and anxiety. Binary logistic regressions were used to identify correlates of different drinking patterns. Results: A total of 53.0% of the students had an AUDIT score of or above 8 (i.e., hazardous drinking). Being native Norwegian, male, single, without children, non-religious, extroverted, unconscientious, and less open to experience were associated with higher AUDIT scores, drinking frequently, and binge drinking. Having parents with high alcohol or drug use increased the odds of engaging in binge drinking, but this factor was not associated with frequent drinking. Students scoring higher on neuroticism and openness were less likely to report problematic alcohol usage. Conclusions: A majority of the students reported alcohol habits that are associated with harm if they persist. This emphasises the need to examine the long-term consequences of students' alcohol use.
