Despite the risks involved when mixing alcohol with casual sexual activity, the majority of college students engage in hookups, and the majority of those hookups involve alcohol. This study focused on the protective role college students' peers can play and the situational factors that might influence their willingness to intervene when a close friend is about to hook up intoxicated. Drawing on the theory of planned behavior (TPB), this study investigated differences in students' (N = 1270) attitudes, norms, perceived behavioral control, and intentions to persuade a close friend not to engage in a hypothetical drunken hookup using a 2 (friend sex) × 2 (participant sex) × 2 (sober/intoxicated) factorial design. Results indicated significant differences in the TPB variables. Participants intended to intervene with female friends, but not male friends, and women were more likely to intervene than men. Participants in the sober condition had stronger intentions to intervene than those in the intoxicated condition, but this effect was driven by increases in men's intentions when sober. Implications for theory and prevention programming are discussed.
尽管将酒精与随意性行为混在一起存在风险，但大多数大学生都会进行一夜情，而且这些一夜情大多都涉及酒精。本研究聚焦于大学生同伴能够发挥的保护作用，以及当亲密朋友即将醉酒进行一夜情时，可能影响他们干预意愿的情境因素。基于计划行为理论（TPB），本研究采用2（朋友性别）×2（参与者性别）×2（清醒/醉酒）析因设计，调查了学生（N = 1270）在态度、规范、感知行为控制以及劝说亲密朋友不进行假设性醉酒一夜情的意图方面的差异。结果表明，计划行为理论变量存在显著差异。参与者打算干预女性朋友，但不干预男性朋友，而且女性比男性更有可能进行干预。清醒状态下的参与者比醉酒状态下的参与者有更强的干预意图，但这种效应是由男性清醒时意图的增加所驱动的。文中讨论了该研究对理论和预防规划的启示。
