The link between symptoms of traumatic stress and substance abuse is well established in the literature, but the specific features of trauma that contribute to substance abuse remain elusive and have not been studied in non-clinical samples. The current study assessed the relationship between traumatic symptoms and alcohol use in a sample of Midwestern college students. Using multiple regression analysis, traumatic stress symptoms, overall, accounted for 55% of the variance in use of alcohol. Most importantly, dissociative behavior, intrusive thoughts, as well as low levels of tension reduction behaviors uniquely contributed to the self-reported use of alcohol. We discuss the importance of educating college-aged students about this relationship as a preventative measure to alcohol and other drug use/abuse.
创伤应激症状与药物滥用之间的联系在文献中已有充分记载,但导致药物滥用的创伤的具体特征仍不明确,且尚未在非临床样本中进行研究。本研究评估了中西部大学生样本中创伤症状与饮酒之间的关系。通过多元回归分析,总体而言,创伤应激症状占酒精使用差异的55%。最重要的是,解离行为、侵入性思维以及低水平的减压行为对自我报告的酒精使用有独特的影响。我们讨论了向大学生普及这种关系的重要性,将其作为预防酒精和其他药物使用/滥用的一项措施。
