本研究测试了酒精使用的理论模型，极端醉酒的标志物，以及作为特质影响，痛苦耐受和基于影响的行为失调的功能的风险行为。风险行为的积极情感途径主要是通过高水平的酒精使用间接的，而消极的情感途径预计将更直接地与风险行为的参与。此外，我们预计特质情感和痛苦容忍度将主要表现出与酒精使用和极端情感状态下发生的行为失调问题的关系。为了评估这些假设，我们测试了三个酒精相关结果的SEM：“典型”酒精使用，“停电”饮酒和风险行为。高特质的负面情绪和对情绪困扰的低容忍度导致在负面情绪激发时难以控制行为，这与饮酒时风险行为的增加直接相关。相反，积极的紧迫感和危险行为之间的关联是间接的，通过增加酒精消费。在模型中，积极的情感表现出反向和正向的影响，对酒精结果的净影响是微不足道的。这些发现提供了关于大学生中影响，酒精使用和酒精相关风险行为之间的不同途径的重要信息。
This study tested a theoretical model of alcohol use, markers of extreme intoxication, and risk behavior as a function of trait affect, distress tolerance, and affect-based behavior dysregulation. Positive affective pathways to risk behavior were primarily expected to be indirect via high levels of alcohol use, while negative affect paths were expected to be more directly associated with engagement in risk behavior. In addition, we expected trait affectivity and distress tolerance would primarily exhibit relationships with alcohol use and problems through behavioral dysregulation occurring during extreme affective states. To evaluate these hypotheses, we tested a SEM with three alcohol‐related outcomes: “Typical” alcohol use, “blackout” drinking, and risk behavior. High trait negative affect and low tolerance for affective distress contribute to difficulty controlling behavior when negatively aroused and this is directly associated with increased risk behavior when drinking. In contrast, associations between positive urgency and risk behaviors are indirect via increased alcohol consumption. Positive affectivity exhibited both inverse and positive effects in the model, with the net effect on alcohol outcomes being insignificant. These findings contribute important information about the distinct pathways between affect, alcohol use, and alcohol-involved risk behavior among college students.
