大学生饮酒已成为中国的一个重要健康问题；目前的研究弥补了之前没有研究调查过中国本科生饮酒动机的空白。本研究旨在复制针对西方人群的饮酒动机修订问卷 (DMQ-R) 的四因素结构。此外，还调查了饮酒动机和饮酒之间的关系。 2012 年，从中国一所大学招募的 436 名参与者（平均年龄 = 20.49，SD = 1.49；50% 为男性）在课堂环境中完成了一项自填式调查。饮酒动机采用中国版DMQ-R进行测量；评估了饮酒的三项指标。进行因子分析来检查 DMQ-R 的因子结构，然后进行回归分析来研究饮酒动机和酒精相关结果之间的关联。验证性因素分析未能复制测试的测量模型，但探索性因素分析确定了类似的四维因素结构。四个因素的信度、收敛效度和判别效度均可接受。结果还表明，社交动机与饮酒和酗酒有关；顺从动机与饮酒和酒精相关问题有关。增强动机是与饮酒最强烈的相关性；应对动机是与酗酒和酒精相关问题最密切的相关性。 DMQ-R是一个可靠有效的量表，测量了中国大学生的四种饮酒动机。研究结果表明，饮酒的动机模型可能适用于研究中国大学饮酒情况。
College drinking has become a significant health issue in China; the current study addressed the gap that no prior research has investigated drinking motives among Chinese undergraduate students. This study aimed to replicate the four-factor structure of the Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised (DMQ-R) reported for Western populations. Additionally, the relationships between drinking motives and alcohol use were investigated. In 2012, 436 participants (mean age = 20.49 and SD = 1.49; 50% male) recruited from a college in China completed a self-administered survey in their classroom setting. Drinking motives were measured by the Chinese version of the DMQ-R; three indicators of alcohol use were assessed. Factor analysis was conducted to examine the factor structure of the DMQ-R, followed by regression analysis to investigate the associations between drinking motives and alcohol-related outcomes. Confirmatory factor analysis failed to replicate the measurement model tested, but exploratory factor analysis identified a similar four-dimensional factor structure. Reliability and convergent and discriminant validity of the four factors were acceptable. The results also showed that social motives were related to alcohol use and heavy drinking; conformity motives were related to alcohol use and alcohol-related problems. Enhancement motives were the strongest correlates of alcohol use; coping motives were the strongest correlates of heavy drinking and alcohol-related problems. The DMQ-R was a reliable and valid scale measuring four types of drinking motives among Chinese college students. Findings suggested that the motivational model of alcohol use may apply to studying college drinking in China.
