Do eating behaviors change before and after engagement in co-use of alcohol and cannabis
ADHD Symptomatology is Associated with Alcohol Use and Consequences via Drinking Norms
Background: Research suggests individuals with ADHD are at risk for alcohol use and related problems and are more susceptible to peer influence. Although previous research has focused on the relationship between alcohol use, related problems, and ADHD symptomatology, scant research has examined whether descriptive drinking norms (i.e., perception of others quantity of drinking) and level of alcohol use mediate this association. Objectives: Conseq…
Binegativity, Childhood Maltreatment, Impulsivity, and Risky Behaviors Among Heavy Drinking Bisexual Women
Bisexual women report more alcohol use and sexual risk-taking than lesbian or heterosexual women. Few studies have examined the underlying mechanisms associating stress sources (binegativity, childhood trauma) with drinking and sexual risk-taking behaviors among bisexual women. Impulsivity may be one such mechanism. This study tested if impulsivity served as a mechanism between childhood trauma, binegativity, alcohol use, and sexual risk-taking. …
Normative Perceptions of Peer Drinking Distinguish High-Intensity Drinkers from Other Drinking Groups
Background: High-intensity drinking (HID), or drinking that doubles the binge threshold (i.e., 8+/10+ drinks for women/men), is associated with more negative consequences than binge-only drinking. However, research focusing on HID and factors that may delineate HID from other drinking behaviors is lacking. The present study evaluated if perceived norms for peer drinking behavior (i.e., descriptive norms for alcohol quantity and frequency and inju…
Subtypes of Alcohol Expectancies Are Differentially Associated With Alcohol Use for Bisexual and Heterosexual Women
Background: Bisexual women, compared to heterosexual women, report greater amounts of alcohol use and heavy drinking. Alcohol expectancies (i.e., beliefs about alcohol outcomes) are a strong predictor of alcohol use, but few studies have examined the importance of alcohol expectancies in relation to alcohol use among bisexual women specifically or in comparison to heterosexual women. Objectives: The current study examined 262 heterosexual and 225…
Normative Perceptions of Sexual Behavior and Alcohol Use among Bisexual Women
Background: As compared to heterosexual and lesbian women, bisexual women report higher rates of alcohol, other substance use, and risky sexual behavior, and they experience more negative outcomes from these behaviors. Descriptive norms (i.e., perceptions of others’ behavior) are an important predictor of risky behaviors, but scant research has examined whether bisexual women’s perceptions of other bisexual women’s alcohol use and sexual behavior…
Impulsivity Moderates the Association Between Hazardous Alcohol Use and Risky Sexual Behaviors Among Cisgender Bisexual Women
An Examination of Protective Factors for Bisexual Stigma and Alcohol Use among Heavy Drinking Young Bisexual Women
Bisexual women are an at-risk population for hazardous drinking. One factor contributing to their risk is binegativity (discrimination from heterosexual and lesbian/gay communities). Research has found a positive association between binegativity and alcohol use, but few studies have explored protective factors (bisexual identity affirmation, connectedness to bisexual community) that may buffer this relationship. Consequently, we examined the impa…
Criterion Validity of Protective Behavioral Strategies for Alcohol Consumption among College Students
BACKGROUND: Protective behavioral strategies (PBS), or behaviors used to reduce harm associated with alcohol use, are often associated with lower levels of alcohol consumption, lower engagement in high-risk drinking behaviors, and fewer alcohol-related consequences. Although the majority of studies have found significant associations between higher PBS use and lower consumption or consequences, some studies have found nonsignificant or even posit…
Daily positive alcohol expectancies and alcohol use outcomes among college students
Expectancy theory supports alcohol expectancies, or the expected effects of drinking, as an important factor in alcohol use behaviors. Recent research supports that alcohol expectancies fluctuate daily, but scant research has examined specific types of expectancies and their associations with alcohol use at the daily level. Consequently, the present study examined (1) the daily association between select expectancies (i.e., sociability, tension r…
Differential pathways of risky drinking via coping motives in college and noncollege young adults
The current study tested a mediation model of psychological functioning (i.e., perceived stressors, psychological distress, and self-regulation) and risky drinking through a drinking to cope pathway comparing college and noncollege young adults. Participants were 623 young adult drinkers ( M age = 21.46) who completed an online survey. Multigroup analyses examined the proposed mediation model for college students and nonstudents. For nonstudents,…
Normative perceptions and compliance to Covid-19 preventive health behaviors among university students
In response to the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued recommended preventive health behaviors (e.g., washing hands, using facemasks, social distancing), aimed at slowing the transmission of the virus. The present study examined university students’ normative beliefs as predictors of compliance to these preventive health behaviors. Data were collected from 150 university students between t…
Impulsivity, Binegativity, Drinking to Cope, and Alcohol-related Behaviors
Daily Exercise and Alcohol Use Among Young Adult College Students
The present study examined associations between exercise and alcohol use at the between- and within-person levels, including temporal sequencing and the impact of gender. Participants were 221 college students that completed an online survey and 14 daily surveys assessing their daily exercise and alcohol use. Individuals who reported higher exercise scores also consumed more alcohol, on average. On days when individuals reported consuming fewer d…
Event-specific drinking and protective behavioral strategy use among college students
College students' alcohol use, negative consequences, and protective behavioral strategy use vary across event-specific drinking occasions. Determining which event-specific drinking occasions are associated with risky alcohol use and the lowest use of harm reduction strategies is important for prevention and intervention programs
Sex and Racial Differences in Patterns of Disordered Eating and Alcohol Use
The present study aimed to determine how young adults' use of disordered eating behaviors (DEBs) and alcohol uniquely cluster with one another, how these clusters differ by sex and race, and map onto health-related correlates. As a part of a cross-sectional study assessing college student health and experiences, female ( n = 1,026), male ( n = 336), White ( n = 640), and Black ( n = 561) young adult college students at three universities ( M age …
Testing daily associations between impulsivity, affect, and alcohol outcomes
Findings suggest that changes in positive affect and impulsivity may be a risk factor for alcohol problems in a daily context. Future research examining within-person impulsivity and negative outcomes may benefit from considering positive affect
Bisexual women’s reports of descriptive drinking norms for heterosexual, bisexual, and lesbian women
Bisexual women drink more than lesbian and heterosexual women. However, few studies have examined factors that influence drinking among bisexual women. Although descriptive drinking norms are strong predictors of drinking, little research has examined how drinking norms influence alcohol use for bisexual women. The present study examined bisexual women's reports of descriptive drinking norms for bisexual, lesbian, and heterosexual women, and asso…
Testing a Model of Binegativity, Drinking-to-Cope Motives, Alcohol Use, and Sexual Coercion Among Self-Identified Bisexual Women
In the present study, we tested a sequential mediation model whereby binegativity was associated with sexual coercion through drinking to cope motives and alcohol use. Data were examined from 224 self-identified bisexual women ( M age = 22.79; SD = 3.44) who took part in an online survey. Participants reported binegativity, alcohol use, drinking to cope motivations, and sexual coercion experiences for the previous 30 days. A total of 48.0% of the…
Impulsivity and risk-taking as predictors of alcohol use patterns and alcohol related-problems
This study examined the predictive utility of self-report measures of impulsivity and risk-taking in alcohol use outcomes (i.e. quantity, frequency, binge frequency, and alcohol-related problems). Participants were 370 (265 women) college student drinkers between ages 18 and 25 years from a mid-size east coast university. Participants completed measures of impulsivity, risk-taking, alcohol use, and alcohol-related problems. Impulsivity and risk-t…
Alcohol-related Facebook activity predicts alcohol use patterns in college students
The purpose of this study was to determine if a brief 10-item alcohol-related Facebook® activity (ARFA) questionnaire would predict alcohol use patterns in college students ( N = 146). During a single laboratory session, participants first privately logged on to their Facebook® profiles while they completed the ARFA measure, which queries past 30 day postings related to alcohol use and intoxication. Participants were then asked to complete five a…
Identifying patterns of situational antecedents to heavy drinking among college students
The current study contributed to the larger drinking literature by identifying profiles that may signify a particularly risky drinking style. Findings may help guide intervention work with college heavy drinkers
