The prevalence of stimulant medication misuse is rising in college students. Motivations to use stimulant medications differ from motivation to use other substances such as alcohol or cannabis. However, no previous research has examined the impact of achievement goal orientation on stimulant misuse in college students. 309 college students (mean age = 18.9; 117 males) without an ADHD diagnosis were invited to participate. Participants completed an online research questionnaire that assessed factors associated with stimulant medication misuse as well as achievement goal orientations (Learning and Performance Orientations). Approximately 12% endorsed a history of stimulant misuse within the past year. More males (17.1%) than females (9.4%) reported stimulant misuse. Those with and without a history of stimulant misuse differed on Performance Orientation (misuse > no misuse) yet were comparable on Learning Orientation. Having a higher Performance Orientation independently predicted stimulant misuse.
大学生中兴奋剂药物滥用的现象正在增加。使用兴奋剂药物的动机与使用酒精或大麻等其他物质的动机不同。然而，以前没有研究调查成就目标取向对大学生兴奋剂滥用的影响。
邀请了 309 名没有 ADHD 诊断的大学生（平均年龄=18.9；男性 117 名）参加。参与者完成了一项在线研究问卷，评估了与兴奋剂药物滥用相关的因素以及成就目标取向（学习和绩效取向）。大约 12%的人报告在过去一年中有过兴奋剂滥用史。报告有兴奋剂滥用史的男性（17.1%）多于女性（9.4%）。有和没有兴奋剂滥用史的人在绩效取向（滥用>无滥用）上存在差异，但在学习取向方面则相似。较高的绩效取向独立预测了兴奋剂滥用。
