Studies examining possible risk factors for the development of alcoholism have focused recently on a variety of personality factors, including those associated with risk-taking behaviors. Alcohol-seeking behavior leading to the abuse of alcohol may be associated with a variety of risk-taking behaviors that derive from certain personality traits. Further, there is evidence that personality traits are transmitted across generations. This study examined the relationship of a family history of alcoholism, antisocial personality disorder (ASP) and alcohol use to several personality traits including the Tri-dimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ) in a sample (N = 91) of nonalcoholic, young male volunteers. The men with ASP scored higher than the non-ASP men on the Novelty Seeking Scale of the TPQ, but not on the Harm Avoidance or Reward Dependence subscales. In addition, ASP men scored higher than non-ASP men on a measure of impulsivity and tended to score higher on measures of sensation seeking, psychopathy and monotony avoidance. A family history of alcoholism did not differentiate the young men on any of the childhood behavior problems, personality measures or alcohol-related variables.
近期，关于酗酒发展潜在风险因素的研究聚焦于多种人格因素，包括与冒险行为相关的因素。导致酒精滥用的觅酒行为可能与源自某些人格特质的多种冒险行为有关。此外，有证据表明人格特质会在代际间传递。本研究在一个非酗酒年轻男性志愿者样本（N = 91）中，考察了酗酒家族史、反社会人格障碍（ASP）和酒精使用与包括三维人格问卷（TPQ）在内的几种人格特质之间的关系。患有ASP的男性在TPQ的新奇寻求量表上得分高于未患ASP的男性，但在回避伤害或奖赏依赖子量表上得分无差异。此外，患有ASP的男性在冲动性测量上得分高于未患ASP的男性，并且在感觉寻求、精神病态和避免单调的测量上往往得分更高。酗酒家族史在任何童年行为问题、人格测量或与酒精相关的变量上均未区分出这些年轻男性。
