The current study examined the extent to which negative affect moderates the relationships between distinct hookup motives and hookup consequences.
Data were collected from 271 heavy-drinking undergraduate college students.
Students from 3 US universities completed online surveys assessing hooking up-related motives, behaviors, and consequences.
The results showed that conformity motives to hookup and negative affect predicted hookup consequences. Furthermore, negative affect moderated the relationship between hooking up for relationship reasons and hookup consequences. Specifically, among students with high negative affect, hooking up to secure a long-term relationship was positively associated with hookup consequences whereas among students with low negative affect, securing a long-term relationship was negatively associated with hookup consequences.
These findings highlight the role that motives and negative affect play in the prediction of negative hookup consequences. Moreover, the findings from the current study have the potential to inform prevention efforts designed to reduce hookup consequences.
本研究考察了消极情绪在多大程度上调节了不同的随意性行为动机与随意性行为后果之间的关系。
数据收集自271名酗酒的本科大学生。
来自美国3所大学的学生完成了在线调查，评估与随意性行为相关的动机、行为和后果。
结果表明，随意性行为的从众动机和消极情绪可预测随意性行为后果。此外，消极情绪调节了出于恋爱原因进行随意性行为与随意性行为后果之间的关系。具体而言，在消极情绪高的学生中，为确立长期恋爱关系而进行随意性行为与随意性行为后果呈正相关，而在消极情绪低的学生中，确立长期恋爱关系与随意性行为后果呈负相关。
这些发现凸显了动机和消极情绪在预测不良随意性行为后果中所起的作用。此外，本研究的结果有可能为旨在减少随意性行为后果的预防工作提供信息。
