An Examination of predictors of prospective changes in self-reported drinker identity and changes in drinker identity as a predictor of changes in alcohol use and associated consequences
Purpose
Self-reported drinker identity, the extent to which one views oneself as a drinker, is associated with alcohol consumption and related harms in young adults. The current study examined changes in self-reported drinker identity, theoretically relevant factors associated with drinker identity development, and drinker identity’s association with changes in drinking and alcohol-related consequences. We hypothesized that drinker identity would increase over time; theoretically relevant factors would be significantly and positively associated with that increase, and increases in drinking identity would be associated with elevated drinking and related consequences.
Method
Participants were 588 heavy-drinking college students (63 % female, 50.5 % White, Meanage = 19.87, from two universities) reporting recent heavy episodic drinking and experiencing alcohol-related consequences in the previous month. Students completed baseline and follow-up assessments at 1-, 3-, and 6-months related to theoretically relevant factors, drinker identity, and drinking/related consequences.
Results
Using parallel process latent growth curve modeling, we examined changes in drinker identity as a function of initial levels and changes in theoretically relevant factors. We also examined changes in alcohol use and related consequences as a function of changes in drinker identity. Results indicated that a more favorable initial attitude toward heavy drinking and an increase in favorable attitude toward heavy drinking were associated with an increase in drinker identity. Overall, alcohol use and associated consequences diminished over time, but increases in drinker identity were associated with smaller reductions in alcohol outcomes.
Conclusions
The study highlights the importance of attitudes as a potential contributing factor to drinker identity development, particularly among college students who drink heavily. This work further demonstrates a link between changes in drinker identity and changes in drinking and associated consequences. This work can inform future interventions aimed at targeting drinking identity.
期刊介绍:
Addictive Behaviors is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality human research on addictive behaviors and disorders since 1975. The journal accepts submissions of full-length papers and short communications on substance-related addictions such as the abuse of alcohol, drugs and nicotine, and behavioral addictions involving gambling and technology. We primarily publish behavioral and psychosocial research but our articles span the fields of psychology, sociology, psychiatry, epidemiology, social policy, medicine, pharmacology and neuroscience. While theoretical orientations are diverse, the emphasis of the journal is primarily empirical. That is, sound experimental design combined with valid, reliable assessment and evaluation procedures are a requisite for acceptance. However, innovative and empirically oriented case studies that might encourage new lines of inquiry are accepted as well. Studies that clearly contribute to current knowledge of etiology, prevention, social policy or treatment are given priority. Scholarly commentaries on topical issues, systematic reviews, and mini reviews are encouraged. We especially welcome multimedia papers that incorporate video or audio components to better display methodology or findings.
Studies can also be submitted to Addictive Behaviors? companion title, the open access journal Addictive Behaviors Reports, which has a particular interest in ''non-traditional'', innovative and empirically-oriented research such as negative/null data papers, replication studies, case reports on novel treatments, and cross-cultural research.
