虽然具有较高社交焦虑(HSA)的人似乎特别容易受到酒精相关问题的影响,但仍不清楚为什么HSA患者会遇到这些问题。一种可能性是,HSA人的饮酒行为受到他们对他人饮酒的看法的影响(即,描述性规范)和/或其他人对饮酒的认可(即,强制性规范)。当前的研究调查了社交焦虑、酒精相关问题、饮酒频率和数量以及描述性和禁令规范之间的关系。样本包括临床社交焦虑升高(HSA:n = 86)或社交焦虑较低(LSA:n = 86)的当前饮酒者。禁令规范缓和社会焦虑群体的地位和酒精相关的问题之间的关系,这样的HSA参与者与较高的禁令规范报告最酒精相关的问题。描述性规范调节社交焦虑和饮酒量之间的关系,这样的参与者具有较高的描述性规范,LSA的参与者比HSA的参与者喝得更多。(C)2011爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Although people with higher social anxiety (HSA) appear particularly vulnerable to alcohol-related problems it remains unclear why people with HSA experience such problems. One possibility is that HSA people's drinking behavior is influenced by their beliefs about others' drinking (i.e., descriptive norms) and/or others' approval of drinking (i.e., injunctive norms). The current study investigated the relationship between social anxiety, alcohol-related problems, drinking frequency and quantity, and descriptive and injunctive norms. The sample consisted of current drinkers with clinically elevated social anxiety (HSA: n = 86) or lower social anxiety (LSA: n = 86). Injunctive norms moderated the relationship between social anxiety group status and alcohol-related problems such that HSA participants with higher injunctive norms reported the most alcohol-related problems. Descriptive norms moderated the relationship between social anxiety and drinking quantity such that among participants with higher descriptive norms, LSA participants drank more than HSA participants.
