DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objectives of the University Life Transitions (ULTRA) Project are to improve understanding of: (1) the natural ecology of late adolescent students' experiences with alcohol and its consequences; and (2) the role played by alcohol expectancies and consequences in alcohol use decisions. Based on an active organism model and alcohol expectancy theory, this application seeks funds for data analysis of questionnaires collected at university freshman orientation (n=943) plus a series of 10 weekly telephone interviews on a targeted sub-sample (n=202, M=1 8.8 years, SD=.4). Specific aims are: Aim 1: Model intra-individual variability in alcohol expectancies, alcohol use, and positive and negative drinking consequences. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) of the intensive repeated measures interview data will be used to describe fluctuations, rhythms, and patterns of alcohol consumption across an academic semester. Aim 2: Test theoretically based hypotheses about reciprocal within-person through-time co-variation of alcohol expectancies, use, and consequences. Based on alcohol expectancy theory, positive and negative alcohol expectancies are hypothesized to predict alcohol use; alcohol use is hypothesized to predict positive and negative consequences; and positive (but not negative) consequences are hypothesized to predict within-person changes in expectancies. Aim 3: Identify between-person psychosocial predictors of within-person variation and co-variation in alcohol expectancies, use, and consequences. Individual differences in family history of alcohol problems, personality, goals, adjustment, alcohol and other drug use history, perceived alcohol use norms, and activities (Greek system, honors program, Spring break vacations) will serve as between-person predictors of within-person variation and co-variation as modeled by Aims 1 and 2. Aim 4: Examine within-person co-variation of positive and negative affect with alcohol use. The study will model whether positive and negative affect co-vary with alcohol use within persons. In addition, between-person moderators and differential links between alcohol use and consequences by drinking motivated by social enhancement vs. tension reduction will be examined. These aims will be addressed by conducting analyses of the ULTRA Project's Orientation Survey and Telephone Interview Study. This intensive repeated measures design following students through their first year of college permits the examination of between-person differences in within-person through-time variation and Co. variation in alcohol expectancies, use, consequences, and affect using HLM.

描述（由申请人提供）：大学生活转变 (ULTRA) 项目的目标是提高对以下方面的理解： (1) 青春期晚期学生饮酒经历及其后果的自然生态； (2) 酒精预期和后果在饮酒决策中所起的作用。该申请基于活跃有机体模型和酒精预期理论，寻求资金用于对大学新生迎新时收集的问卷调查表（n=943）以及针对目标子样本（n=202，M=1 8.8 年，SD=.4）进行的一系列每周 10 次的电话访谈进行数据分析。具体目标是： 目标 1：对饮酒预期、饮酒以及饮酒的积极和消极后果的个体内部差异进行建模。密集重复测量访谈数据的分层线性模型 (HLM) 将用于描述整个学期的酒精消费波动、节奏和模式。目标 2：测试基于理论的假设，即酒精预期、使用和后果的人体内随时间的相互变化。根据酒精预期理论，假设正负酒精预期可以预测饮酒情况；假设饮酒可以预测积极和消极的后果；假设积极（但不是消极）的后果可以预测人体内期望的变化。目标 3：确定酒精预期、使用和后果的人内变异和共同变异的人际心理社会预测因素。酒精问题家族史、性格、目标、调整、酒精和其他药物使用史、感知的酒精使用规范和活动（希腊制度、荣誉计划、春假）的个体差异将作为目标 1 和 2 建模的人内变异和共变的人际预测因子。目标 4：检查人内积极和消极情绪与饮酒的共变。该研究将模拟积极和消极影响是否与人体内饮酒共同变化。此外，还将研究人与人之间的调节因素以及饮酒和出于社交增强与缓解紧张而饮酒的后果之间的差异联系。这些目标将通过对 ULTRA 项目的定向调查和电话访谈研究进行分析来实现。这种密集的重复测量设计跟踪学生在大学一年级的学习，允许使用 HLM 检查人内随时间变化的人际差异以及酒精预期、使用、后果和影响的公司变化。
