Abstract

Objective: Undergraduate drinking is associated with childhood adversity, early alcohol experience, and drinker self-schema. However, the pathway linking childhood adversity to undergraduate drinking problems remains undefined. This study aimed to identify the effects of childhood poly-adversity on the sequelae of adolescent alcohol-use trajectory, drinker self-schema, and alcohol problems among undergraduates. We also examined whether adolescent alcohol-use trajectory and drinker self-schema mediated the effects of childhood poly-adversity on undergraduate alcohol problems.

Methods: Baseline data from an ongoing prospective study, which included 851 first- and second-year full-time college students in Taiwan, were used. An anonymous online questionnaire was administered.

Results: The results showed that low poly-adversity and high poly-adversity were associated with the mean of initial alcohol use frequency during adolescence and further alcohol problems at college than those with no adversity. High poly-adversity was also associated with the increase in alcohol use frequency during adolescence. Both initial and increase in alcohol use frequency were associated with higher drinker self-schema scores and further alcohol problems. The indirect effects of high poly-adversity on undergraduate alcohol problems were mediated through adolescent alcohol-use trajectories and drinker self-schema.

Conclusion: Findings suggest that early identification of childhood poly-adversity and interventions to decrease adolescent drinking may prevent the formation of drinker self-schema and reduce undergraduate drinking problems.

童年的多重性与大学生酗酒问题的关系:青少年酗酒轨迹和酗酒者的自我模式。
目的:大学生酗酒与童年逆境、早期酗酒经历和酗酒者的自我概念有关。然而,童年逆境与大学生酗酒问题之间的联系途径仍未确定。本研究旨在确定童年多重逆境对大学生青春期酗酒轨迹、酗酒者自我模式和酗酒问题的影响。我们还研究了青春期酒精使用轨迹和饮酒者自我模式是否介导了童年多重性对大学生酒精问题的影响:方法: 我们使用了一项正在进行的前瞻性研究的基线数据,该研究包括台湾的851名一年级和二年级全日制大学生。研究采用匿名在线问卷调查的方式:结果表明,与没有逆境的学生相比,低多重逆境和高多重逆境与青春期初次饮酒频率的平均值和大学期间进一步出现酗酒问题有关。高多重逆境也与青春期酗酒频率的增加有关。初次饮酒频率和饮酒频率的增加都与饮酒者自我模式得分较高和进一步出现酗酒问题有关。高多重性对本科生酗酒问题的间接影响是通过青春期酗酒轨迹和饮酒者自我模式来调节的:研究结果表明,及早识别儿童的多重性并采取干预措施以减少青少年饮酒,可以预防饮酒者自我模式的形成并减少大学生的饮酒问题。
