Abstract

Aim

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the association between affective drinking motives, delinquency and binge drinking varied as a function of sex and if so, whether delinquency moderated the relationship between affective drinking motives and binge drinking in late adolescent males and females.

Methods

Participants were 623 (257 males, 366 females) high school seniors from the 2018 Monitoring the Future study. A principal components analysis was initially performed to create component scores for the first factor of a 15-item drinking motives scale subsequently labeled affective drinking motives. These scores, along with sex and a measure of delinquency, were then entered into a three-way interaction. The interaction was found to correlate significantly with binge drinking. Because of the significant three-way interaction, analyses were performed on male and female participants separately.

Results

Analyses conducted on male participants revealed a moderate correlation between affective drinking motives and binge drinking but no evidence of an interaction between affective drinking motives and delinquency. Analyses performed on female participants, on the other hand, identified a significant main effect for affective drinking motives and a negative interaction between affective drinking motives and delinquency, indicating that the relationship between affective drinking motives and binge drinking was strongest when delinquency was low.

Conclusions

These results suggest that while delinquency had no apparent impact on the affective drinking motive–binge drinking correlation in boys, low delinquency clearly amplified the counter-binge drinking effects of low affective drinking motives in girls.

 抽象的

 目的

本研究的目的是确定情感饮酒动机、犯罪和酗酒之间的关联是否随性别而变化，如果是这样，犯罪是否会调节青春期晚期男性和女性情感饮酒动机和酗酒之间的关系。

 方法

参与者是 2018 年“监测未来”研究的 623 名高中生（257 名男性，366 名女性）。最初进行主成分分析，为 15 项饮酒动机量表的第一个因素创建成分分数，随后将其标记为情感饮酒动机。然后将这些分数与性别和犯罪行为的衡量标准一起进行三向互动。研究发现这种相互作用与酗酒显着相关。由于三向交互作用显着，因此对男性和女性参与者分别进行了分析。

 结果

对男性参与者进行的分析显示，情感饮酒动机与酗酒之间存在中等相关性，但没有证据表明情感饮酒动机与犯罪之间存在相互作用。另一方面，对女性参与者进行的分析发现，情感饮酒动机具有显着的主效应，并且情感饮酒动机与犯罪之间存在负向相互作用，这表明当犯罪率较低时，情感饮酒动机与酗酒之间的关系最强。

 结论

这些结果表明，虽然犯罪行为对男孩的情感饮酒动机与酗酒之间的相关性没有明显影响，但犯罪率低明显放大了女孩中低情感饮酒动机的反酗酒效应。
