This book was released on 2013 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation critically reviewed empirical evidence that examines the role that social anxiety and alcohol expectancies play in the drinking behaviors of U.S. college students. The hypothesis, based partially upon the Social Cognitive Model (SCM) (Burke and Stephens, 1999), proposed that college students who have symptoms of social anxiety and also endorse positive alcohol expectancies will be at a higher risk for alcohol dependent behaviors and alcohol related problems than will college students who have symptoms of social anxiety who endorse negative alcohol expectancies. Nine empirical articles were chosen based upon specific criteria. The studies must have collected data from students that were currently enrolled at United States universities and colleges, must have been published in English and in peer reviewed journals between January 1, 2000 and September 1, 2012. Each study examined the variables of social anxiety, drinking behavior, and alcohol expectancies. Studies were not excluded if they studied additional variables. Dissertations, master's theses, and non-peer reviewed articles were excluded. Articles examining the studied variables in the context of a treatment study (e.g.,examining whether students' alcohol expectancies change after alcohol psycho-education oranother such treatment modality) were excluded. While social anxiety was not found to have a main effect on drinking behaviors of college students, positive alcohol outcome expectancies were found to have a positive association with drinking. The review also supported an interaction between social anxiety and alcohol outcome expectancies on drinking behaviors. Limitations included that samples were not randomized, self-report measures were used, designs were cross-sectional, and that non-Caucasian ethnicities were under-represented. Implications for college drinking prevention efforts and future research are discussed.

Download or read book The Effects of Social Anxiety on Alcohol Choice written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social anxiety is the fear of social situations in which one feels they are being evaluated. One consequence of social anxiety may be increased drinking behaviors. For example, college students who experience an excessive amount of social anxiety may drink to cope with the negative effects of anxiety. The current study manipulated social anxiety by asking socially anxious female college students, to make choices about alcohol consumption while they were alone or in a group with two confederates. Alcohol choices were measured using the Multiple Choice Procedure (MCP), a well-studied self-report choice measure of relative reinforcer efficacy. Results found no difference in anxiety scores between the social anxiety and control conditions and higher crossover points on form A of the MCP. Limitations and implications of these results are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescent alcohol use is prominent among today′s teens and has elicited rising concerns among parents, health practitioners, social policymakers, and the public at large. Yet there is an absence of a relatively concise book that summarizes and integrates existing knowledge on the various facets of adolescent alcohol use. This book attempts to fill this void by integrating research from the multiple fields of study (e.g., prevalence of use), describing measurement approaches (e.g., survey and clinical diagnostic), reviewing risk and protective factors, reporting on findings from prominent prevention and treatment studies, and suggesting future research directions. The coverage is intended to examine issues relevant to etiology, developmental courses, and prevention and treatment, as well as to identify future research directions.

Download or read book Alcohol Consumption, Drinking Motives, Social Anxiety, and the College Culture written by Noel A. Crabtree and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol consumption is a prominent component of the college culture; high-risk consumption may lead to detrimental consequences for the student. Problematic alcohol consumption is linked to sexual assault, drunk driving, vandalism, and other unlawful activities. The degree to which students conform to the perceived social norms of the culture of the campus may impact the amount of alcohol that students consume; perceived social norms are often higher than the actual consumption amounts. Social anxiety may also impact the degree to which students will self-monitor their behavior in order to conform to their perceptions of the drinking norms. Drinking motives may also play a part in the amount and frequency of alcohol consumed, whether it's participating in drinking games during social gatherings, or consuming at the same rate as their peers for social acceptance. The study tested two hypotheses. The first hypothesis states: H1: The relationship between social anxiety and alcohol consumption would be moderated by perceived social norms. The second hypothesis states: H2: The relationship between social anxiety and alcohol consumption would be mediated by the drinking motives of coping and social pressure/conformity. Social anxiety was measured by the Liebowitz Social Anxiety scale (LSAS). The measure for alcohol consumption was based on self-reports for the number of drinks consumed per week. The measure for perceived social norms was the comparisons of the actual number of drinks consumed by the participant pool on average per week, in comparison with the number of drinks that the participant estimates that their peer consumes per week. The measure for social norms/alcohol expectancies and drinking motives was the evaluation of the responses sampled from the CORE Alcohol and Drug Survey and Drinking Motives Questionnaire- Revised (DMQR). The results indicated that the students who overestimated the alcohol consumption of their peers reported lower levels of alcohol consumption. Perceived social norms did not moderate the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol consumption. There was no significance found in the mediation of either of the drinking motives in the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol consumption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A preponderance of research has explored the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol-related problems in college students often with a focus on the role of motivation for drinking, consumption levels, and alcohol-related outcome expectancies as factors in the relationship. Yet, to date, very limited research has explored whether co-morbidity between social anxiety and alcohol-related problems persist in older, post-college young adults or whether the factors that influence that relationship in college students persist in a post-college environment. The current study measured social anxiety, alcohol consumption, motives, expectations, related problems, and convivial drinking events in a sample of college students (18-22 year old) and post-college young adults (26-35 years old) as well as explored whether a unified model of the relationship could be found in either or both groups. Results indicated greater social anxiety in the college aged group and few differences in alcohol-related factors between groups. No relationship between social anxiety and alcohol-related problems was found in the college student group, while in the post-college young adult group, coping motives served as a suppressor to that relationship with gender moderating that mediation. Exploratory analysis revealed when controlling for age, gender moderated the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol-related problems through coping motives. These results may provide further evidence of the complexity of the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol-related problems as well as the importance of accounting for other factors, such as gender and age, when conceptualizing risk and treatment.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social anxiety disorder (SAD) and alcohol use disorders (AUDs; i.e., alcohol dependence, alcohol abuse) are highly prevalent and potentially debilitating. They also commonly co-occur, and when they do, their combined effect may be even more devastating. The onset of SAD most commonly precedes the onset of AUDs, suggesting that SAD may be a marker or risk factor for the onset of these other disorders. Previous research has not sufficiently examined the mechanisms involved in the development of AUDs, and longitudinal research is lacking. The current study examined mechanisms related to the development of AUDs among incoming college freshman students at two large universities in the United States. Incoming freshmen are at higher risk for developing symptoms consistent with SAD, particularly during their first semester, and they may be more likely to cope with their symptoms of anxiety by drinking alcohol. The current study aimed to explicate the relationship between social anxiety and alcohol consumption in college freshmen. Baseline data collection occurred late in the summer after registration for the Fall semester or early in the Fall semester. Follow-up data collection occurred later in the Fall semester. It was expected that social anxiety, the quantity and frequency of drinking alcohol (including frequency of intoxication), and alcohol-related problems would increase among the freshmen over the course of the fall semester. Additionally, several relationships among the variables being examined were hypothesized. Drinking motives, symptoms of depression, and quality of life were expected to mediate the relationship between social anxiety and the drinking outcome variables. In addition, expectancies about alcohol consumption were expected to moderate the mediated relationship. However, there were no increases in social anxiety, alcohol consumption, or alcohol-related problems between baseline and follow-up. There were few hypothesized relationships found, although there was a positive relationship between social anxiety and negative alcohol expectancies and a negative relationship between social anxiety and quality of life. Model testing generated one promising model in which the relationship of positive expectancies regarding alcohol use to alcohol use and problems was mediated by coping with anxiety drinking motives. In particular, the main effect of positive expectancies of alcohol and coping with anxiety drinking motives generated a medium effect whereas the other relationships generated small to medium effects. Clinical implications and limitations of the current study are discussed.

Download or read book The Use of Alcohol Among Undergraduate Students With and Without Social Anxiety and Its Relationship to Social Support written by Katherine Isabel Karbowski and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current study examined the relationship between social anxiety, social support, and alcohol use among 186 college students from Central Connecticut State University. As predicted, scores on the college salience scale were positively related to alcohol use and Cooper's (1994) four drinking motives (social, coping, enhancement, and conformity). Furthermore, social support had a negative relationship with frequency of alcohol consumption but no significant relationship with any other variable of interest. Social anxiety was negatively related to frequency of alcohol use, but positively related to social, coping and conformity drinking motives. Multiple regression analyses indicated that college salience is strongly related to both frequency and amount of alcohol consumed and all four drinking motives, suggesting that college students who believe alcohol plays an important or large role in the college experience are more likely to drink more often and have more alcohol per occasion. Moreover, they were also more likely to use drinking for positive and negative reinforcement in hopes of attaining certain behavioral outcomes such as receiving positive social responses or to regulate negative emotional responses. This study contributes to the current research and is important because it adds to the current information regarding social support, social anxiety and alcohol use among college students.
