Alcohol consumption among young people is a significant public health concern. Previous studies have indicated that participation in sports, through the positive experiences it offers, may function as a protective factor against alcohol intake. This study aimed to examine the influence of enjoyment and personal fulfillment on adolescent alcohol use, exploring the role of engagement with sports as a mediating variable.
A total of 370 adolescents (mean age = 15.08; = 1.48) participated in the study and completed the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test, the Enjoyment in Sports Scale, and the Athlete Engagement Questionnaire.
The results demonstrated that enjoyment is related to lower alcohol consumption through personal fulfillment and engagement in sporting activity.
It is crucial to facilitate positive experiences in sport that promote engagement and generate a sense of personal fulfillment, as these factors may reduce the likelihood of risky alcohol consumption.
年轻人饮酒是一个重大的公共卫生问题。先前的研究表明,参与体育运动,通过其所带来的积极体验,可能作为一种预防饮酒的保护因素。本研究旨在检验享受感和个人成就感对青少年饮酒的影响,探讨参与体育运动作为中介变量的作用。
共有370名青少年(平均年龄=15.08;标准差=1.48)参与了本研究,并完成了酒精使用障碍识别测试、运动享受量表和运动员参与问卷。
结果表明,享受感通过个人成就感和参与体育活动与较低的酒精消费量相关。
促进体育运动中的积极体验至关重要,这些体验能促进参与并产生个人成就感,因为这些因素可能降低危险饮酒的可能性。
