动机模型表明，鉴于不同药物类别的药理作用不同，以及社会背景的不同，个人使用物质是为了达到预期的效果，人们可以预料到，激发使用的动机因药物类别而不同。然而，也观察到不同毒品动机的共性。这项研究的目的是检验两种药物的有经验的使用者对酒精和大麻的共同动机的异同。参与者是46名大学生(21名女性)，他们完成了两次动机评估，一次是关于大麻，一次是关于酒精。所有人在有生之年都使用过每种药物60次或更多。与大麻相比，饮酒的社会动机得到了更高的认可。大麻的扩张动机得到了更高的认可。在女性中，吸食大麻的动机比饮酒更受欢迎，但男性则不然。对应对和顺从动机的认可在不同的药物中没有不同。有经验的大麻和酒精使用者对他们使用这两种药物的原因有区别。关于滥用物质之间的区别和共同点，讨论了这些调查结果。(C)2000爱思唯尔科学有限公司。
Motivational models suggest that individuals use substances to achieve desired effects, Given different pharmacological effects across drug classes, and variations in social context, one would expect that the motives instigating use differ by drug class. However, commonalties in motives across drugs have also been observed. The purpose of this study was to examine similarities and differences across a common set of motives for alcohol and marijuana among experienced users of both drugs. Participants were 46 college students (21 women) who completed a motives assessment twice, once for marijuana and once for alcohol. All had used each drug 60 or more times in their lifetime. Social motives were more highly endorsed for alcohol than marijuana. Expansion motives were more highly endorsed for marijuana. Enhancement motives were more highly endorsed for marijuana than alcohol among women but not men. Endorsement of coping and conformity motives did not differ across drugs. Experienced users of marijuana and alcohol discriminate between their reasons for using the two drugs. These findings are discussed with regard to the differentiation between and commonalties among substances of abuse. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
