This study examines NEO-FFI correlates of risk for alcoholism, alcohol use disorders and alcoholism subtyping dimensions in a mixed-gender sample of 468 young adults (mean age = 21.3) presumed to be at high risk (n = 239) or low risk (n = 229) for alcoholism on the basis of a family history of paternal alcoholism. The NEO-FFI is a brief personality inventory measuring each of the key dimensions of the five-factor model of personality (FFMP), a comprehensive, empirically-derived model of personality structure. Familial risk for alcoholism was positively associated with openness and negatively associated with agreeableness and conscientiousness. Alcohol use disorders were positively associated with neuroticism and negatively associated with aggreeableness and conscientiousness. With the exceptions of alcoholism subtyped by comorbid antisocial personality disorder and by familial alcoholism, all of the alcoholic subtypes examined were related to at least one of the five dimensions. We conclude that the FFMP holds promise for studying personality traits in alcohol use disorders and in bringing a unifying perspective to research and clinical work in this area.
本研究在一个由468名年轻成年人(平均年龄 = 21.3岁)组成的混合性别样本中,考察了与酗酒风险、酒精使用障碍及酗酒亚型维度相关的大五人格量表(NEO-FFI)得分情况。基于父亲有酗酒家族史,这些年轻人被分为高风险组(n = 239)或低风险组(n = 229)。NEO-FFI是一个简短的人格量表,用于测量人格五因素模型(FFMP)的各个关键维度,该模型是一个全面的、基于实证得出的人格结构模型。酗酒家族风险与开放性呈正相关,与宜人性和尽责性呈负相关。酒精使用障碍与神经质呈正相关,与宜人性和尽责性呈负相关。除了合并反社会人格障碍的酗酒亚型和家族性酗酒亚型外,所研究的所有酗酒亚型均与五个维度中的至少一个维度相关。我们得出结论,FFMP有望用于研究酒精使用障碍中的人格特质,并为该领域的研究和临床工作带来统一的视角。
