背景：认识到酒精可能会影响后续处理的创伤相关的信息，本研究探讨是否高剂量酒精消费（HDAC）后校园大规模射击影响射击暴露和创伤后应激症状（PTSS）之间的关系。方法：女性参与者（N= 691）记录水平的物理暴露于射击事件，酒精的使用，PTSS 1个月后的射击事件和8个月后。结果：没有证据表明，射击前HDAC缓和创伤暴露和PTSS之间的关系1个月后的射击。HDAC在枪击事件发生后的一个月预测PTSS 8个月后的分辨率较低。具体而言，在较高（但不是较低）水平的HDAC，射击暴露与创伤后1至8个月PTSS减少较少相关。几种替代的解释被排除了。结论：减少PTSS似乎发生在高水平的射击曝光和HDAC。理论意义和未来的研究方向进行了讨论。
Background:Recognizing that alcohol might affect subsequent processing of trauma-related information, this study examined whether high dose alcohol consumption (HDAC) following a campus mass shooting affected the relation between shooting exposure and post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS).Methods:Female participants (N= 691) recorded levels of physical exposure to the shooting event, alcohol use, and PTSS 1 month following the shooting event and 8 months later.Results:No evidence was found to suggest that pre-shooting HDAC moderated the relationship between trauma exposure and PTSS 1 month following the shooting. HDAC in the month following the shooting predicted less resolution of PTSS 8 months later. Specifically, at higher (but not lower) levels of HDAC, shooting exposure was associated with less reduction in PTSS from 1 to 8 months post-trauma. Several alternate explanations were ruled out.Conclusions:Less reduction in PTSS seems to occur at high levels of both shooting exposure and HDAC. Theoretical implications and directions for future research are discussed.
