In two experiments, we investigated whether different mood states activate specific types of implicit alcohol cognition among undergraduates classified as enhancement (EM) or coping (CM) motivated drinkers. Participants completed a Stroop task in Experiment 1 (n=81), and an Extrinsic Affective Simon Task (EAST; [De Houwer, J. (2003). The Extrinsic Affective Simon Task. Experimental Psychology, 50, 77-85.]) in Experiment 2 (n=79) following random assignment to listen to positive or negative musical mood induction procedures (MMIP). Consistent with hypotheses, only EM, and not CM, drinkers displayed an activation of implicit attention to alcohol cues (Experiment 1) and reward-alcohol implicit associations (Experiment 2) following exposure to positive MMIP. Contrary to hypotheses for CM drinkers, none of the groups, in either experiment, showed an activation of implicit alcohol processing following exposure to negative MMIP. Confidence that positive mood activates implicit alcohol cognition among EM drinkers is increased since this result emerged across two studies involving quite different methodologies. This research has implications for experimental cognitive research and it highlights the potential utility of treatment matching according to drinking motives (e.g., EM) to improve clinical outcomes.
在两项实验中，我们调查了不同情绪状态是否会在被归类为强化动机饮酒者（EM）或应对动机饮酒者（CM）的大学生中激活特定类型的内隐酒精认知。在实验1（n = 81）中，参与者完成了一项斯特鲁普任务；在实验2（n = 79）中，参与者在随机分配听积极或消极的音乐情绪诱导程序（MMIP）后，完成了一项外在情感西蒙任务（EAST；[德休尔，J.（2003年）。外在情感西蒙任务。《实验心理学》，50，77 - 85。]）。与假设一致，只有EM饮酒者，而非CM饮酒者，在接触积极MMIP后表现出对内隐酒精线索的注意激活（实验1）以及奖励 - 酒精内隐关联激活（实验2）。与针对CM饮酒者的假设相反，在两项实验中的任何一组，在接触消极MMIP后均未表现出内隐酒精加工的激活。由于这一结果在两项采用截然不同方法的研究中均出现，因此增强了我们对于积极情绪会激活EM饮酒者内隐酒精认知的信心。这项研究对实验认知研究具有启示意义，并且突出了根据饮酒动机（例如EM）进行治疗匹配以改善临床结果的潜在效用。
