两项研究调查了那些被确定为具有更现实的时间观(PTP)的人是否更有可能报告使用酒精,毒品和烟草。在研究1中,在来自15个样本的2,627名参与者中,我们发现由Zimbardo时间视角量表评估的PTP与更频繁的自我报告的酒精,药物和烟草使用有关(物质使用量表:平均r = .34,p < .001)。未来时间洞察力(FTP)与报告的物质使用呈负相关(平均r =-0.16,p <0.001),但这种关系比PTP弱,表明PTP和FTP是独立的结构。在研究2中,我们发现,即使在控制了许多与物质使用增加有关的人格特征之后,PTP仍然是报告的物质使用的重要预测因素。这些研究结果表明,时间洞察力是一个重要的个体差异结构,应考虑在检查健康相关的行为,如物质使用和滥用,并在规划干预方案。
Two studies examined whether those identified as having a more present time perspective (PTP) are more likely to report using alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. In Study 1, across 2,627 participants from 15 samples, we found that PTP, as assessed by the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory, was related to more frequent self-reported alcohol, drug, and tobacco use (Substance Use scale: average r = .34, p < .001). Future time perspective (FTP) was negatively related to reported substance use (average r = -.16, p < .001), but the relation was weaker than that of PTP, suggesting that PTP and FTP are independent constructs. In Study 2, we found that PTP was a significant predictor of reported substance use even after controlling for many personality traits that have been related to increased substance use. These findings indicate that time perspective is an important individual difference construct that should be considered when examining health-related behaviors, such as substance use and abuse, and in planning intervention programs.
