To test the hypothesis that two temperament scales (Novelty Seeking and Harm Avoidance) are differentially related to alcohol expectancies and drinking patterns, 140 adolescents from an inpatient psychiatric facility completed several self-report questionnaires measuring temperament, alcohol expectancies, and alcohol consumption. Moderated multiple regression analyses indicated that Novelty Seeking was significantly related to frequency of drinking and problem drinking, but that Harm Avoidance was not related to these variables. Results of the MANOVA indicated that high novelty seeking and low harm avoidant (Type 2) individuals had a significantly higher frequency of drinking than did individuals who were high on Harm Avoidance and low on Novelty Seeking (Type 1). Results also showed that expectancy and Novelty Seeking contributed significant independent and overlapping variance in the prediction of amount of drinking. Although Novelty Seeking was related to expectations of social functioning, other hypothesized relationships between temperament and expectancy were not supported.
为了检验两种气质量表（寻求新奇和避免伤害）与酒精预期及饮酒模式存在不同关联这一假设，来自一家住院精神科机构的140名青少年完成了多项自我报告问卷，这些问卷用于测量气质、酒精预期和酒精消费情况。调节多元回归分析表明，寻求新奇与饮酒频率和问题饮酒显著相关，但避免伤害与这些变量无关。多变量方差分析结果表明，高寻求新奇和低避免伤害（2型）的个体饮酒频率显著高于高避免伤害和低寻求新奇（1型）的个体。结果还显示，预期和寻求新奇在饮酒量预测中贡献了显著的独立和重叠方差。尽管寻求新奇与社交功能预期有关，但气质与预期之间的其他假设关系未得到支持。
