The present study proposed and tested a motivational model of alcohol use in which people are hypothesized to use alcohol to regulate both positive and negative emotions. Two central premises underpin this model: (a) that enhancement and coping motives for alcohol use are proximal determinants of alcohol use and abuse through which the influence of expectancies, emotions, and other individual differences are mediated and (b) that enhancement and coping motives represent phenomenologically distinct behaviors having both unique antecedents and consequences. This model was tested in 2 random samples (1 of adults, 1 of adolescents) using a combination of moderated regression and path analysis corrected for measurement error. Results revealed strong support for the hypothesized model in both samples and indicate the importance of distinguishing psychological motives for alcohol use.
本研究提出并检验了一个酒精使用的动机模型，该模型假设人们使用酒精来调节积极和消极情绪。该模型有两个核心前提：（a）酒精使用的强化动机和应对动机是酒精使用和滥用的近端决定因素，预期、情绪和其他个体差异的影响通过这些因素进行中介；（b）强化动机和应对动机代表现象学上不同的行为，具有独特的前因和后果。使用校正测量误差的调节回归和路径分析相结合的方法，在两个随机样本（一个是成年人样本，一个是青少年样本）中对该模型进行了检验。结果显示，两个样本都对假设模型提供了有力支持，并表明区分酒精使用的心理动机的重要性。
