Abstract

Aims: The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of intention and habit in predicting adults’ drinking behaviour within the home setting. Measures: A convenience sample of 414 Australians aged between 35 and 60 were recruited through targeted Facebook advertising. Eligibility criteria for study participation included reporting consuming alcohol at least once a week at home. Participants completed self-report measures of alcohol consumption, habit strength regarding home drinking behaviour, and intentions to consume alcohol. Differences in home drinking controlling for age and gender, by level of habit, and intention were examined using ANCOVA. Results: Increases in intention were associated with an increase in home drinking. However, with habit and intention entered in the same model, only habit was a significant predictor of the amount of alcohol consumed in the home. For Australians, habit is a stronger predictor of alcohol consumption than intention. Conclusions: Given that a large proportion of people are doing the majority of their drinking when at home, home-based interventions which target the habitual nature of home consumption may help to reduce consumption and related harm.

习惯和意向对成人家庭酒精消费的解释作用

目的:本文的目的是调查意图和习惯在预测成年人在家庭环境中的饮酒行为中的作用。措施:通过有针对性的Facebook广告招募了414名年龄在35至60岁之间的澳大利亚人作为方便样本。参与研究的资格标准包括报告每周至少在家饮酒一次。参与者完成了饮酒量、家庭饮酒习惯强度和饮酒意图的自我报告。使用ANCOVA检查了年龄和性别控制的家庭饮酒差异，通过习惯水平和意图。结果:意图的增加与家庭饮酒的增加相关。然而，当习惯和意图进入同一个模型时，只有习惯是家庭饮酒量的重要预测因子。对于澳大利亚人来说，习惯比意图更能预测酒精消费。结论:考虑到大部分人在家里喝酒，针对家庭消费的习惯性质的家庭干预可能有助于减少消费和相关危害。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
