Abstract

This cross-sectional study examined how perceived partner drinking relates to relationship satisfaction and symptoms of anxiety and depression across romantic drinking partnerships. Participants included 239 cisgender, heterosexual undergraduate students in current romantic relationships (Mage = 19.74; 76.15% female; 87.87% White) who reported their own and their romantic partner's drinking. Associations between drinking partnerships, identified via K-medoid cluster analysis, and internalizing symptomatology were examined utilizing hierarchical linear regression. Perceived partner drinking problems were associated with symptoms of depression but not anxiety. Two drinking quantity (concordant light, concordant heavy) and three drinking problem (concordant light, discordant female high, discordant male high) partnerships were identified. Broadly, men's anxiety and relationship satisfaction were significantly impacted by their drinking quantity and problem partnerships, respectively; this effect was not observed for women. The findings of this study extend extant research on the impact of romantic partner drinking to unmarried, collegiate emerging adults who are at an increased risk of internalizing symptomatology and alcohol use and inform conceptualization of drinking partnerships at the drinking quantity and drinking problem level.

年轻人的焦虑和抑郁：感知到的恋爱伴侣酗酒的作用

本横断面研究探讨了在不同的恋爱饮酒伴侣关系中，感知伴侣饮酒与关系满意度以及焦虑和抑郁症状之间的关系。研究对象包括 239 名有恋爱关系的顺性别异性恋本科生（年龄=19.74；76.15%为女性；87.87%为白人），他们报告了自己及其恋爱伴侣的饮酒情况。通过 K-medoid 聚类分析确定的酗酒伴侣与内化症状之间的关系，利用分层线性回归进行了研究。发现伴侣的酗酒问题与抑郁症状有关，但与焦虑无关。研究确定了两种饮酒量（轻度一致、重度一致）和三种饮酒问题（轻度一致、女性高度不一致、男性高度不一致）伴侣关系。总体而言，男性的焦虑和关系满意度分别受到其饮酒量和问题伴侣的显著影响；而女性则没有受到这种影响。本研究的结果将现有的关于恋爱伴侣饮酒影响的研究扩展到了未婚的、处于内化症状和饮酒风险增加阶段的大学生新成人，并从饮酒量和饮酒问题的层面为饮酒伴侣关系的概念化提供了信息。
