Emerging adults often increase problematic drinking during college. Although they generally do not seek help for problematic drinking, college students discuss their drinking on social media. This study followed college students' Facebook profiles from the inception of their attendance at a university and identified alcohol-related posts. Within 28 days of their first alcohol-related Facebook post, participants were interviewed to assess problematic drinking (binge drinking episodes and number of drinks). Linguistic analysis of alcohol-related Facebook posts found that use of negative emotion language and swear words were related to problematic drinking, in support of proposed hypotheses. Results are situated within alcohol use disorder and health research examining the link between problematic drinking and anxiety, deviant behavior, and negative emotions.
成年初期的人在大学期间常常会增加酗酒问题。尽管他们通常不会为酗酒问题寻求帮助,但大学生会在社交媒体上讨论他们的饮酒情况。这项研究从大学生开始上大学时就跟踪他们的 Facebook 个人资料,并确定了与饮酒有关的帖子。在他们的第一个与酒精有关的 Facebook 帖子发布后的 28 天内,对参与者进行了采访,以评估他们的酗酒问题(狂饮发作和饮酒量)。对与酒精有关的 Facebook 帖子的语言分析发现,使用负面情绪语言和脏话与酗酒问题有关,这支持了提出的假设。研究结果与酒精使用障碍和健康研究有关,该研究考察了酗酒问题与焦虑、异常行为和负面情绪之间的联系。
