越来越多的证据表明，含咖啡因的酒精饮料（CAB）的消费可能比单独饮酒的风险更大。努力确定CAB的使用模式和这种饮酒模式的相关性，可以进一步我们的概念化和干预这一健康问题。因此，目前的研究旨在（1）确定不同类别的CAB用户，（2）检查酒精和咖啡因问题的测量类别之间的差异，（3）比较不同类别的CAB用户对咖啡因和酒精结果的预期。参与者是来自心理学研究池的583名（31%男性）本科生。潜谱分析模型，使用四个指标：CAB使用量。CAB使用频率、饮酒量和饮酒频率。结果显示，饮酒者分为四类：高酒精/高CAB（6.00%）、高酒精/中等CAB（5.15%）、高酒精/低CAB（22.99%）和低酒精/低CAB（65.87%）。低酒精/低CAB类报告了咖啡因依赖症状、咖啡因戒断、酒精使用问题和重度间歇性饮酒频率的最低相对水平。此外，结果表明，不同的预期认可的基础上使用配置文件。在高酒精/低CAB类CAB用户赞同更多的积极酒精预期比低酒精/低CAB组。那些在高酒精/高CAB类赞同更强的戒断症状咖啡因的期望比所有其他类。在今后的CAB使用工作中，将物质特异性预期纳入更大的理论框架可能是有益的。研究结果可以为那些与CAB消费相关的最大风险的人提供干预措施。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Growing evidence suggests that the consumption of caffeinated alcoholic beverages (CAB) may be riskier than alcohol alone. Efforts to identify patterns of CAB use and the correlates of such drinking patterns could further our conceptualization of and intervention for this health issue. Consequently, the current study aimed to (1) identify distinct classes of CAB users, (2) examine differences between classes on measures of alcohol and caffeine problems, and (3) compare distinct classes of CAB users on caffeine and alcohol outcome expectancies. Participants were 583 (31% men) undergraduate students from a psychology research pool. Latent profile analysis models were derived using four indicators: CAB use quantity. CAB use frequency, alcohol use quantity, and alcohol use frequency. Finding revealed four classes of drinkers: High Alcohol/High CAB (6.00%), High Alcohol/Moderate CAB (5.15%), High Alcohol/Low CAB (22.99%), and Low Alcohol/Low CAB (65.87%). The Low Alcohol/Low CAB class reported the lowest relative levels of caffeine dependence symptoms, caffeine withdrawal, alcohol use problems, and heavy episodic drinking frequency. Further, results indicated differential expectancy endorsement based on use profiles. CAB users in the High Alcohol/Low CAB class endorsed more positive alcohol expectancies than the Low Alcohol/Low CAB group. Those in the High Alcohol/High CAB class endorsed stronger withdrawal symptom caffeine expectancies than all other classes. Inclusion of substance-specific expectancies into larger theoretical frameworks in future work of CAB use may be beneficial. Findings may inform intervention efforts for those at greatest risk related to CAB consumption. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
