这项研究测试了婚姻对年轻人大量饮酒的影响,并测试了这种影响是否是由参与社会活动,宗教信仰和自我控制限制饮酒的原因介导的。508名年轻人的样本来自一项正在进行的家族性酒精中毒纵向研究,该研究对酗酒者的子女进行了过度抽样。为了区分角色社会化的影响,婚姻的角色选择的混杂效应,分析使用协方差分析(ANCOVA)方法和调整婚前酗酒水平和调解人的变化评分法。结果表明,婚姻的角色社会化影响了婚后酗酒的下降。这种影响是通过参与社会活动来介导的,婚姻预示着参与社会活动的减少,这反过来又预示着大量饮酒的减少。宗教信仰没有统计学上显著的中介效应。仅ANCOVA方法支持自我控制原因限制饮酒的介导效应,进一步的调查表明,由于违反了ANCOVA方法的假设,该结果被错误地检测到,该假设不被变化评分方法所共享。这项研究的结果为一些人在成年后逐渐摆脱酗酒提供了解释。从方法学上讲,结果表明,应谨慎使用ANCOVA方法,并且变化评分法是确认ANCOVA方法结果的可行方法。
This study tested the effect of marriage on young adult heavy drinking and tested whether this effect was mediated by involvement in social activities, religiosity, and self-control reasons for limiting drinking. The sample of 508 young adults was taken from an ongoing longitudinal study of familial alcoholism that over-sampled children of alcoholics. In order to distinguish role socialization effects of marriage from confounding effects of role selection into marriage, analyses used both the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) method and the change score method of adjusting for pre-marriage levels of heavy drinking and the mediators. Results showed role socialization effects of marriage on post-marriage declines in heavy drinking. This effect was mediated by involvement in social activities such that marriage predicted decreased involvement in social activities, which in turn predicted decreased heavy drinking. There were no statistically significant mediated effects of religiosity. The mediated effect of self-control reasons for limiting drinking was supported by the ANCOVA method only, and further investigation suggested that this result was detected erroneously due to violation of an assumption of the ANCOVA method that is not shared by the change score method. Findings from this study offer an explanation for the maturing out of heavy drinking that takes place for some individuals over the course of young adulthood. Methodologically, results suggest that the ANCOVA method should be employed with caution, and that the change score method is a viable approach to confirming results from the ANCOVA method.
