Previous work suggests that social anxiety is inconsistently related to alcohol use. To further explore this relationship, alcohol outcome expectancies were evaluated as potential moderator and mediators in a large sample (N=284) of college undergraduates. The expectancy variables included positive and negative alcohol outcome expectancies as well as expectancies specific to social facilitation. Consistent with a self-presentation model of shyness, social anxiety was related to decreased drinking. Interestingly, social anxiety was associated with increased positive as well as increased negative expectancies. There was not support for moderator or mediator effects. Consistent with prior work, social facilitation expectancies appear to operate as a suppressor variable in the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol use.
先前的研究表明,社交焦虑与饮酒之间的关系并不一致。为了进一步探究这种关系,在一个由大量本科大学生组成的样本(N = 284)中,将饮酒结果预期作为潜在的调节变量和中介变量进行了评估。预期变量包括积极和消极的饮酒结果预期以及特定于社交促进的预期。与害羞的自我展示模型一致,社交焦虑与饮酒量减少有关。有趣的是,社交焦虑与积极预期和消极预期的增加都有关联。未发现调节或中介效应的证据。与先前的研究一致,社交促进预期似乎在社交焦虑与饮酒之间的关系中起到抑制变量的作用。
