Protective behavioral strategies (PBS) are skills that can be used to reduce the risk of alcohol-related negative consequences. Studies have shown that, in general, PBS are related to less alcohol consumption and fewer negative consequences; however, other studies have suggested that not all types of PBS (e.g., stopping/limiting drinking [SLD], manner of drinking [MOD] and serious harm reduction [SHR]) are equally effective at reducing alcohol risk. In addition, few studies have explored the longitudinal relationships among PBS, alcohol use and consequences. Using a sample of heavy drinking college students (N=338), the current study examined PBS use, alcohol consumption and consequences across two time points three months apart. Cross-lagged panel models revealed that MOD predicted a reduction in alcohol use and negative consequences. SHR was longitudinally related to fewer negative consequences, but unrelated to alcohol use. SLD was not associated with drinking or consequences at follow-up. These results highlight the need for future research to examine the effects of different types of PBS and have implications for alcohol intervention programs that incorporate PBS skills training.
保护性行为策略（PBS）是可用于降低酒精相关负面后果风险的技能。研究表明，一般而言，PBS与较少的酒精消费和较少的负面后果相关；然而，其他研究表明，并非所有类型的PBS（例如，停止/限制饮酒[SLD]、饮酒方式[MOD]和严重危害降低[SHR]）在降低酒精风险方面都同样有效。此外，很少有研究探讨PBS、酒精使用和后果之间的纵向关系。本研究以大量饮酒的大学生为样本（N = 338），在相隔三个月的两个时间点考察了PBS的使用、酒精消费和后果。交叉滞后面板模型显示，MOD预测酒精使用和负面后果会减少。SHR在纵向与较少的负面后果相关，但与酒精使用无关。在随访中，SLD与饮酒或后果无关。这些结果凸显了未来研究考察不同类型PBS效果的必要性，并对纳入PBS技能培训的酒精干预项目具有启示意义。
