This paper assesses the relationship of Sense of Coherence (SOC) and alcohol consumption-related problems in the 2000 U.S. National Alcohol Survey (4,630 current drinkers). Measures include a 3-item SOC scale, a 15-item social consequences scale, and DSM-IV alcohol dependence. Using logistic regression, a strong SOC was significantly related to not reporting either consequences or dependence. Results underscore the importance of using theoretically-based approaches to examine nonproblematic drinking. The development of interventions that could strengthen SOC deserves future research attention. The study's limitations are noted.

本文评估了2000年美国全国酒精调查（4630名当前饮酒者）中连贯感（SOC）与酒精消费相关问题之间的关系。测量指标包括一个3项连贯感量表、一个15项社会后果量表以及《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第四版（DSM-IV）中的酒精依赖。使用逻辑回归分析发现，强烈的连贯感与未报告后果或依赖显著相关。结果强调了采用基于理论的方法来研究无问题饮酒的重要性。开发能够增强连贯感的干预措施值得未来研究关注。文中指出了该研究的局限性。本研究由美国国立酒精滥用与酒精中毒研究所授予酒精研究小组的一项国家酒精研究中心资助（AA-05595-16）。
