本研究探讨了基于社会规范的方法在女同性恋社区环境中减少酗酒的潜在效用。从社交媒体网络招募 278 名南加州女同性恋者来完成一项在线调查，结果显示，大多数参与者高估了女同性恋同龄人的饮酒量，而更频繁地去酒吧的女同性恋者与对其他女同性恋者饮酒量的看法提高有关。超过 90% 的参与者表示有兴趣接受个性化规范反馈，这表明专注于纠正酗酒观念的文化定制个性化规范反馈干预措施可能会成功减轻南加州及其他地区女同性恋者与酒精相关的风险。
This study examines the potential utility of social norms-based approaches to reduce heavy alcohol use in lesbian community settings. In a sample of 278 Southern Californian lesbians recruited from social media networks to complete an online survey, the majority of participants overestimated the quantity of alcohol consumed by their lesbian peers and more frequent lesbian bar attendance was associated with elevated perceptions of how much other lesbians drink. Greater than 90% of participants expressed interest in receiving personalized normative feedback, suggesting that culturally tailored personalized normative feedback interventions focused on correcting perceptions of heavy drinking may be successful in mitigating the alcohol-related risks of lesbians in Southern California, and potentially beyond.
