OBJECTIVE
"Drunkorexia," limiting food intake before alcohol consumption, increases college students' risk for negative alcohol-related health consequences. The current study tested whether (1) women engage in drunkorexia more frequently than men; (2) weight control motivations explain sex differences in drunkorexia; and (3) among women, weight control motivations are a particularly strong predictor of drunkorexia for heavier drinkers.
PARTICIPANTS
Undergraduate males and females (N = 63) recruited during fall of 2011.
METHODS
PARTICIPANTS self-reported their alcohol consumption, drunkorexia, and weight control motivations online.
RESULTS
Findings supported hypotheses: weight control motivations explained why women engage in drunkorexia more than men; and the weight control motivation → drunkorexia relation was strongest for heavier- (vs lighter-) drinking women.
CONCLUSION
Women have more weight concerns than men, which makes them more likely to engage in drunkorexia. Heavy-drinking women with strong weight control motivations are at greatest risk for drunkorexia. Interventions should help students more safely reconcile pressures to be thin and drink alcohol.
目的
“醉酒厌食症”，即在饮酒前限制食物摄入量，会增加大学生出现与酒精相关的负面健康后果的风险。本研究检验了以下几点：（1）女性比男性更频繁地出现醉酒厌食症；（2）体重控制动机能否解释醉酒厌食症中的性别差异；（3）在女性中，体重控制动机是否是重度饮酒者出现醉酒厌食症的一个特别强的预测因素。
参与者
2011年秋季招募的本科男性和女性（N = 63）。
方法
参与者通过网络自我报告他们的饮酒情况、醉酒厌食症情况以及体重控制动机。
结果
研究结果支持了假设：体重控制动机解释了为什么女性比男性更易出现醉酒厌食症；并且对于饮酒较多（与饮酒较少相比）的女性，体重控制动机与醉酒厌食症之间的关系最为强烈。
结论
女性比男性更关注体重，这使得她们更有可能出现醉酒厌食症。有强烈体重控制动机的重度饮酒女性出现醉酒厌食症的风险最大。干预措施应帮助学生更安全地协调瘦身和饮酒的压力。
