相对较少的研究探讨了同伴沟通如何影响酒精消费。在强制大学生的样本中，我们区分关于饮酒的谈话与关于预防伤害的谈话，并为这些沟通结构的有效性提供证据。违反校园酒精政策，并被称为酒精制裁的学生（N = 345）报告饮酒模式，使用保护性行为策略，感知的描述性规范的亲密朋友，并担任他们的朋友之间的社会领袖;他们还报告了关于饮酒，饮酒安全和降低风险的努力的谈话频率。预测的相关性之间的通信类型和概念上相关的变量。一般通信与消费，但不保护性行为策略，而安全/降低风险的对话与所有的保护性行为策略呈正相关。这两种类型的沟通都与社会领导力有关。安全沟通调节同伴描述规范和每周饮料之间的关系;更频繁地谈论安全削弱了规范消费的关系。关于饮酒和安全的同伴交流可以作为强制大学生降低风险干预措施变化的目标。
Relatively little research has examined how peer communication influences alcohol consumption. In a sample of mandated college students, we differentiate conversations about drinking among from conversations about harm prevention and provide evidence for the validity of these communication constructs. Students who violated campus alcohol policies and were referred for alcohol sanctions (N = 345) reported on drinking patterns, use of protective behavioral strategies, perceived descriptive norms for close friends and serving as social leader among their friends; they also reported on the frequency of conversations about drinking, about drinking safety, and about risk reduction efforts. Predicted correlations were found among types of communication and conceptually related variables. General communication was related to consumption but not protective behavioral strategies, whereas safety/risk reduction conversations correlated positively with all protective behavioral strategies. Both types of communication were associated with social leadership. Safety communication moderated the relationship between peer descriptive norms and drinks per week; more frequent talking about safety attenuated the norms-consumption relationship. Peer communication about both drinking and safety may serve as targets for change in risk reduction interventions for mandated college students.
