Drunkorexia is a behavior pattern marked by calorie restriction and/or compensation in relation to alcohol consumption. The aim of the present study was to examine the role of social norms (descriptive, injunctive) and social comparison orientation (SCO; global, alcohol-specific, eating disorder-related) in drunkorexia engagement. Specifically, our research aimed to examine a possible interaction between norms and SCO; we hypothesized that the relationship between social norms and drunkorexia would be moderated by SCO in that the relationship would be stronger among those elevated on SCO. Data were collected from an undergraduate sample (n = 501); participants completed the consent form and questions/questionnaires via Qualtrics. The results indicated that the predictor variables examined were correlated with overall drunkorexia engagement. In the regression models, in terms of main effects, eating disorder-related SCO emerged as the strongest predictor of the drunkorexia dimensions as well as overall drunkorexia engagement. Descriptive norms emerged as the second strongest predictor in the models. Only one interaction was identified; eating disorder-related SCO moderated the relationship between descriptive norms and the bulimia drunkorexia dimension. The simple slopes analysis indicated that descriptive norms was positively predictive of the bulimia drunkorexia dimension only among individuals with average or elevated eating disorder-related SCO. Social comparisons made regarding one’s body, eating, or exercise (eating disorder-related) and social norms are potentially important targets for drunkorexia prevention and/or intervention programs. Further research is needed to better understand risk factors for drunkorexia engagement in the college population.

考察社会比较取向和社会规范在醉酒参与中的作用

醉酒症是一种行为模式,其特征是卡路里限制和/或与饮酒有关的补偿。本研究的目的是检查社会规范(描述性、禁令)和社会比较取向(SCO;全球性、特定于酒精、与饮食失调相关)在醉酒参与中的作用。具体而言,我们的研究旨在检验规范与 SCO 之间可能的相互作用;我们假设社会规范和醉酒症之间的关系会受到 SCO 的调节,因为在 SCO 升高的人中,这种关系会更强。数据是从本科样本中收集的 ( n = 501); 参与者通过 Qualtrics 填写同意书和问题/问卷。结果表明,所检查的预测变量与整体醉酒厌食相关。在回归模型中,就主效应而言,饮食失调相关的 SCO 成为醉酒症维度以及整体醉酒症参与度的最强预测因子。描述性规范成为模型中第二强的预测因子。仅确定了一种相互作用;与饮食失调相关的 SCO 调节了描述性规范和贪食症醉酒症维度之间的关系。简单的斜率分析表明,描述性规范仅在饮食失调相关 SCO 平均或升高的个体中对贪食症醉酒厌食维度呈阳性预测。对一个人的身体、饮食或运动(与饮食失调相关)和社会规范进行的社会比较是醉酒症预防和/或干预计划的潜在重要目标。需要进一步研究以更好地了解大学人群醉酒参与的风险因素。
