我们发展了一个性别婚姻传记的方法，强调单身，婚姻，婚姻解体和再婚的积累性别经验，以检查婚姻状况和过渡和酗酒之间的关系。我们使用来自健康与退休研究（HRS）的个人水平（N= 10，457）和夫妇水平（N= 2，170）纵向数据以及个人水平（N=46）和夫妇水平（N=42）深度访谈数据来测试这种方法。定量结果表明，与从未结婚和以前结婚的人相比，结婚，包括再婚，减少了男子的饮酒量，但增加了妇女的饮酒量，而离婚则增加了男子的饮酒量，但减少了妇女的饮酒量，并因年龄而有所不同。我们的定性研究结果表明，社会控制和收敛过程的定量结果的基础。我们呼吁关注男性和女性的酗酒轨迹如何停止，开始，并改变方向，因为个人通过他们独特的婚姻传记移动。
We develop a gendered marital biography approach—which emphasizes the accumulating gendered experiences of singlehood, marriage, marital dissolution, and remarriage—to examine the relationship between marital statuses and transitions and heavy alcohol use. We test this approach using individual-level (N=10,457) and couple-level (N=2,170) longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), and individual-level (N=46) and couple-level (N=42) in-depth interview data. Quantitative results show that marriage, including remarriage, reduces men’s but increases women’s drinking relative to being never-married and previously married, whereas divorce increases men’s but decrease women’s drinking, with some variation by age. Our qualitative findings reveal that social control and convergence processes underlie quantitative results. We call attention to how men’s and women’s heavy drinking trajectories stop, start, and change direction as individuals move through their distinctive marital biography.
