酒精消费通常通过自我报告的方法进行评估，尽管人们对这一信息的准确性表示担忧。经皮酒精监测可以被动和连续地测量酒精消耗量，对日常生活的干扰最小。目前的研究探讨了每日自我报告的饮酒量和透皮酒精监测器之间的对应关系。32名健康男性（n = 16）和女性（n = 16）佩戴经皮酒精监测器28天。参与者被要求像往常一样喝酒，并每天通过调查链接提示他们报告昨天的饮酒情况。数据分析集中在以下比较：（1）自我报告的饮酒和TAC读数之间的总体对应关系;（2）各种TAC标准阈值检测自我报告饮酒的敏感性（TAC阈值为无，低，中度和重度）;以及（3）使用自我报告饮酒作为黄金标准的假阳性TAC结果的风险。参与者自我报告饮酒共324天，其中212天（65.4%）检测到TAC事件。当参与者自我报告不喝酒（399天）时，在366天（92%）也发现了零TAC。自我报告的饮酒和经皮浓度之间的对应关系往往是好的：总体而言，当自我报告饮酒时，TAC也检测到饮酒65.4%的时间。
Alcohol consumption is typically assessed via self-report methods, though there are concerns over the accuracy of this information. Transdermal alcohol monitoring can passively and continuously measure alcohol consumption with minimal interference in daily life. The current study examines the correspondence between daily self-reported alcohol consumption and transdermal alcohol monitors. Thirty-two healthy men (n = 16) and women (n = 16) wore a transdermal alcohol monitor for 28 days. Participants were instructed to drink as they usually do and prompted daily with a survey link to report yesterdays drinking. Data analyses focused on the following comparisons: (1) the overall correspondence between self-reported drinking and TAC readings; (2) the sensitivity of various TAC criteria thresholds to detect self-reported drinking (TAC thresholds of none, low, moderate, and heavy); and (3) the risks of false positive TAC findings using self-reported drinking as the Gold Standard. Participants self-reported drinking a total of 324 days, of which, TAC events were detected on 212 days (65.4%). When participants self-reported not drinking (399 days), zero TAC was also found on 366 days (92%). The correspondence between self-reported drinking and transdermal concentrations tended to be good: overall, when self-reported drinking was reported, TAC also detected drinking 65.4% of the time.
