Abstract

We proposed a conceptual model to predict binge-drinking behavior among college students, based on the theory of planned behavior and the stress-coping hypothesis. A two-wave online survey was conducted with predictors and drinking behavior measured separately over 2 weeks' time. In the Wave 1 survey, 279 students at a public university in the United States answered questions assessing key predictors and individual characteristics. In the Wave 2 survey, 179 participants returned and reported their drinking behavior over 2 weeks' time. After conducting a negative binomial regression, we found that more favorable attitude toward drinking and less perceived control of drinking at Wave 1 were associated with more binge drinking at Wave 2; subjective norm at Wave 1 was not a significant predictor of binge drinking at Wave 2; students with higher stress at Wave 1 engaged in more binge drinking at Wave 2, but those with higher loneliness did not. Implications of findings are discussed.

预测大学生酗酒:理性信念、压力还是孤独?
基于计划行为理论和压力应对假说,提出了一个预测大学生酗酒行为的概念模型。一项两波在线调查在两周的时间里分别测量了预测因素和饮酒行为。在Wave 1的调查中,279名美国公立大学的学生回答了评估关键预测因素和个人特征的问题。在第二波调查中,179名参与者返回并报告了他们在两周内的饮酒行为。在进行负二项回归后,我们发现,在第1波中,对饮酒更有利的态度和更少的饮酒控制与第2波中更多的酗酒有关;第一阶段的主观规范对第二阶段的酗酒没有显著的预测作用;在第一波中压力较大的学生在第二波中更多地酗酒,而那些孤独感较高的学生则没有。讨论了研究结果的含义。
