Abstract

Aims: Alcohol consumption often occurs in a social setting, which was affected by social distancing measures amid the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In this study, we examine how involuntary social isolation (i.e. comparing a no-lockdown stage with a lockdown stage) affects the association between loneliness, social activities, and drinking behavior.

Method: We performed an ecological momentary assessment eight times per day for 7 days amid the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany. We recruited 280 participants and assessed their trait loneliness, daily state loneliness, social activities, and drinking behaviors.

Results: We found that a lockdown condition moderates the association between trait and daily state loneliness and alcohol consumption. During a lockdown stage, trait loneliness was positively associated, whereas state loneliness was negatively associated with alcohol consumption. During a no-lockdown stage, trait and state loneliness were both negatively associated with alcohol consumption. For both no-lockdown and lockdown stages, duration of social interaction, male gender, and weekends was positively associated with alcohol consumption.

Conclusion: Our study suggests that an involuntary social isolation condition (i.e. a lockdown stage) changes how trait loneliness is associated with alcohol consumption.

非自愿社交隔离和饮酒:新冠肺炎大流行期间德国的生态瞬时评估。
目标:饮酒通常发生在社交环境中,这受到2019冠状病毒病(新冠肺炎)大流行期间社交距离措施的影响。在这项研究中,我们研究了非自愿社交隔离(即比较非封锁阶段和封锁阶段)如何影响孤独感、社交活动和饮酒行为之间的关联。方法:在德国新冠肺炎大流行期间,我们每天进行8次生态瞬时评估,为期7天。我们招募了280名参与者,评估了他们的特质孤独感、日常状态孤独感、社交活动和饮酒行为。结果:我们发现,封锁状态会调节特质与日常状态孤独感和饮酒之间的关联。在封锁阶段,特质孤独与饮酒呈正相关,而状态孤独与饮酒呈负相关。在非封锁阶段,特质和状态孤独都与饮酒呈负相关。在非封锁和封锁阶段,社交持续时间、男性和周末与饮酒呈正相关。结论:我们的研究表明,非自愿的社会孤立状态(即封锁阶段)会改变特质孤独与饮酒的关系。

期刊介绍: About the Journal Alcohol and Alcoholism publishes papers on the biomedical, psychological, and sociological aspects of alcoholism and alcohol research, provided that they make a new and significant contribution to knowledge in the field. Papers include new results obtained experimentally, descriptions of new experimental (including clinical) methods of importance to the field of alcohol research and treatment, or new interpretations of existing results. Theoretical contributions are considered equally with papers dealing with experimental work provided that such theoretical contributions are not of a largely speculative or philosophical nature.
