PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed project will significantly advance the understanding of the impact of COVID-19 related mitigation strategies on isolation, loneliness, alcohol use, alcohol use consequences, and mental health and physical health outcomes by using social network analysis to investigate how isolation and personal networks are related to patterns of drinking over time. Isolation and loneliness are both known to negatively impact a range of health outcomes and health behaviors; while prolonged COVID-19 related stay-at-home orders will increase isolation, it is unknown what impact they will have on loneliness or the other identified outcomes, which groups will be most susceptible to negative outcomes, or whether changes in alcohol use will be temporary or long lived. The fields of alcohol research and prevention may see substantial benefit from the use of novel methodological techniques to develop models that may provide a clearer understanding of the ways in which physical isolation and related mitigation strategies impact adult drinking. Specifically, the proposed project will: 1) assess how COVID-19 related changes in physical isolation, perceptions of loneliness, and social support exchanges (emotional and instrumental support) are linked to changes in mental health, physical health, and alcohol use and consequences in a nationally representative sample of N=1,771 30-80 year olds; 2) determine the relative importance of a range of structural and behavioral personal network characteristics on changes in mental health, physical health, and alcohol use and consequences during COVID-19; and 3) examine the role of COVID-19 related changes in physical isolation, loneliness, and social support on mental health, physical health, and alcohol use and consequences disparities by sex, race/ethnicity and economic status within and across two stages of the adult lifespan (mid- and later- life), and identify adults who are more resilient versus vulnerable to COVID-19 related impacts. To do so, we propose to add two surveys to our ongoing data collection for R01AA025956 that specifically examine COVID-19 related changes in physical isolation, loneliness, social support, personal and network alcohol use, and alcohol use outcomes. With this additional data collection, we will have five waves of data on these measures, spanning critical phases of the COVID pandemic: pre-COVID (Parent project Wave 1, reflecting April 2019 behaviors), early-COVID (Parent project Wave 2, reflecting April 2020 – during the rollout of distancing guidelines), mid- and late-COVID (2 supplemental surveys: August 2020 and February 2021, likely during easing of current restrictions), and post-COVID (Parent project Wave 3, reflecting April 2021). The study will provide new insights into the role of isolation, loneliness, and social support on alcohol use, and associated health-related disparities, subsequent to pandemic-related mitigation strategies based on isolation. Additionally, data from the study will eventually be made publicly available and other researchers will also be able to continue to survey the same panel, providing an ongoing resource for the scientific community.

项目概要 拟议项目将显着增进对 COVID-19 相关影响的了解 关于隔离、孤独、酗酒、酗酒后果以及心理健康的缓解策略 通过使用社交网络分析来调查隔离和个人网络如何影响身体健康结果 与长期饮酒模式有关。众所周知，孤立和孤独都会对范围产生负面影响 健康结果和健康行为；而与 COVID-19 相关的长期居家订单将会增加 孤立，目前尚不清楚它们会对孤独感或其他已确定的结果产生什么影响，哪些群体 最容易受到负面结果的影响，或者饮酒的改变是暂时的还是长期的。 酒精研究和预防领域可能会从新方法的使用中获益匪浅。 开发模型的技术可以让人们更清楚地了解物理隔离的方式 以及相关的缓解策略会影响成人饮酒。 具体来说，拟议的项目将：1）评估与 COVID-19 相关的物理隔离变化如何， 孤独感和社会支持交换（情感和工具支持）与 国家代表心理健康、身体健康和饮酒的变化及其后果 样本 N=1,771 30-80 岁； 2）确定一系列结构和行为的相对重要性 个人网络特征对心理健康、身体健康和饮酒变化的影响 COVID-19 期间的后果； 3) 检查与 COVID-19 相关的变化在物理隔离中的作用， 孤独感以及对心理健康、身体健康、饮酒及其后果的社会支持差异 按成人寿命的两个阶段（中期和后期）的性别、种族/族裔和经济状况 生活），并确定哪些成年人更有弹性，哪些更容易受到 COVID-19 相关影响。 为此，我们建议在我们正在进行的 R01AA025956 数据收集中添加两项调查，特别是 检查与 COVID-19 相关的物理隔离、孤独、社会支持、个人和网络变化 酒精使用和酒精使用结果。通过这些额外的数据收集，我们将获得五波数据 这些措施跨越了新冠肺炎大流行的关键阶段：新冠疫情之前（母项目第一波，反映 2019 年 4 月行为），早期新冠肺炎（父项目第 2 波，反映 2020 年 4 月 – 在推出疏远措施期间 指南），新冠疫情中期和晚期（2 次补充调查：2020 年 8 月和 2021 年 2 月，可能在宽松政策期间 当前限制）和后新冠疫情（父项目第 3 波，反映 2021 年 4 月）。 该研究将为孤立、孤独和社会支持对饮酒的作用提供新的见解， 以及相关的健康相关差异，继基于大流行的相关缓解策略之后 隔离。此外，该研究的数据最终将公开，其他研究人员将 还能够继续调查同一小组，为科学界提供持续的资源。
