饮酒和使用社交网站（SNS）是青少年中流行的消遣方式。目前的横断面研究（N = 3，133）旨在探讨16-20岁青少年在SNS上接触和显示酒精相关内容与酒精滥用之间的关系。首先，研究结果支持在SNS上显示与酒精相关的内容与酒精滥用的关系比接触此类内容更密切。此外，在SNS上接触和显示与酒精相关的内容与酒精滥用的关联是通过感知朋友的社会规范和对过度饮酒的态度来介导的。然而，尽管与酒精相关的态度和社会规范似乎在接触社交网络上与酒精相关的内容与酗酒之间的关系中同样重要，但在社交网络上显示与酒精相关的内容与酗酒之间的关联似乎主要是通过改变来介导的。酒精相关态度。总的来说，这项研究揭示了更多的SNS使用和青少年危险饮酒行为之间的复杂关系。
Both consuming alcohol and using social networking sites (SNS) are popular pastimes among adolescents. The current cross-ectional study (N = 3,133) aims to explore the relation between being exposed to and displaying alcohol-related content on SNS with alcohol abuse among adolescents aged 16-20 years. First, the results support that displaying alcohol-related content on SNS is more strongly associated with alcohol abuse than exposure to this kind of content. Furthermore, the associations of both exposure to and displaying alcoholrelated content on SNS with alcohol abuse are mediated through perceived social norms of friends and attitudes toward excessive alcohol consumption. Yet, whereas alcohol-related attitudes and social norms seemed to be equally important mediators in the relation between exposure to alcohol-related content on SNS and alcohol abuse, the association between displaying alcohol-related content on SNS and alcohol abuse seemed to be mediated predominantly through a change in alcohol-related attitudes. Overall, this study sheds more light on the complex relations between SNS use and risky drinking behavior among adolescents.
