In recent years, there has been increasing concern about youthful "binge" drinking and intoxication. Yet the meaning of intoxication remains under-theorized. This paper examines intoxication in a young adult nightlife scene, using data from a 2005-2008 National Institute on Drug Abuse-funded project on Asian American youth and nightlife. Analyzing in-depth qualitative interview data with 250 Asian American young adults in the San Francisco area, we examine their narratives about alcohol intoxication with respect to sociability, stress, and fun, and their navigation of the fine line between being "buzzed" and being "wasted." Finally, limitations of the study and directions for future research are noted.
近年来,人们越来越关注年轻人的“狂饮”和醉酒现象。然而,醉酒的含义仍缺乏理论阐释。本文利用2005年至2008年美国国立药物滥用研究所资助的一个关于亚裔美国青年与夜生活的项目数据,研究了年轻成年人夜生活场景中的醉酒情况。通过分析对旧金山地区250名亚裔美国年轻成年人的深度定性访谈数据,我们考察了他们关于酒精中毒在社交、压力和乐趣方面的叙述,以及他们如何拿捏“微醺”和“烂醉”之间的界限。最后,指出了该研究的局限性和未来研究的方向。
