Momentary reports of negative affect, alcohol expectancies, and perceived relief

我的长期目标是制定一项研究计划，重点研究饮酒开始和酒精使用障碍维持过程中涉及的情感和认知过程，以便为预防和治疗研究提供信息。 拟议项目的中心目标是了解饮酒的负面影响和感受到的缓解如何影响目前的饮酒决定，并检查酒精结果预期在这一过程中的作用。要解决的具体研究问题是：(1)消极影响饮酒，这种影响是否取决于饮酒预期？以及(2)饮酒是否缓解负面影响，这种影响是否取决于饮酒预期？我将在个人电子日记中使用负面情绪、饮酒和戒酒感觉缓解的报告，以及在个人基线测量酒精结果预期之间来回答这些问题。 评估拟议研究金的具体目标将为现有预防和治疗方法的研究提供信息，并对新的干预战略产生影响。一种可能的干预措施是将电子日记评估与预期挑战和个性化评估反馈方法相结合。

My long-term goal is to develop a program of research focused on emotional and cognitive processes involved in initiation of drinking and maintenance of alcohol use disorders in order to inform research on prevention and treatment. The central objectives of the proposed project are to understand how negative affect and perceived relief from drinking influence drinking decisions in the moment, and to examine the role of alcohol outcome expectancies in this process. The specific research questions to be addressed are (1) Does negative affect prompt drinking, and is this effect conditional on alcohol relief expectancies?, and (2) Does drinking relieve negative affect and is this effect conditional on alcohol relief expectancies? I will use within individual electronic diary reports of negative affect, alcohol consumption, and perceived relief from drinking, and between individual baseline measurement of alcohol outcome expectancies to answer these questions Assessing the specific aims of the proposed fellowship will inform research on existing prevention and treatment approaches and have implications for new intervention strategies. One potential intervention would be an integration of electronic diary assessment with expectancy challenge and personalized assessment feedback approaches.
