本研究的目的是启动和描述模拟饮酒游戏程序（SDGP）的开发，这是一种安全，高效，无酒精的实验室协议，用于研究饮酒游戏行为。52名本科生在实验室完成了SDGP，参与者在那里玩啤酒乒乓单打和/或双打游戏。在所有的比赛中都用水代替了酒精。在比赛和20分钟的比赛期间消耗的饮料数量在每个会话期间进行编码，并使用软件来估计参与者在参加SDGP时如果他或她消耗了实际的酒精，将达到的峰值血液酒精浓度（BAC）。结果表明，参与啤酒乒乓球可以导致酒精的快速消费和相关的BAC上升。结果还强调了女性参与者参与饮酒游戏的额外风险。SDGP是一种研究工具，能够增加我们对饮酒游戏的理解。
The aim of the current study was to initiate and describe the development of a Simulated Drinking Game Procedure (SDGP), a safe, efficient, and alcohol-free laboratory protocol for studying drinking game behavior. Fifty-two undergraduates completed the SDGP in a laboratory session, where participants played singles and/or doubles games of Beer Pong. Water was substituted for alcohol in all of the games. The number of drinks consumed during matches and 20-min play periods were coded during each session, and software was used to estimate the peak blood alcohol concentration (BAC) a participant would achieve if he or she had consumed actual alcohol while participating in the SDGP. Results indicated that participation in Beer Pong can lead to rapid consumption of alcohol and an associated rise in BAC. Results also highlight additional risks for female participants associated with participation in drinking games. The SDGP is a research tool capable of increasing our understanding of drinking games.
