Research indicates general willingness to drink (i.e., “How willing are you to drink tonight?”) fluctuates day-to-day and is associated with daily-level drinking. However, it is unknown whether willingness to engage in specific alcohol-related behaviors is associated with actual engagement in those behaviors above and beyond general willingness to drink at the daily level. The present study examined whether daily-level willingness to engage in specific behaviors (i.e., pre-gaming, blacking out, hooking up) predicted engaging in those respective behaviors on drinking days above and beyond one’s general willingness to drink. Participants included adolescents and young adults who were part of a longitudinal ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study on cognitions and alcohol use. Participants (N = 675; 43 % male) who reported drinking on weekend days (i.e., Friday and Saturday [N = 3,727 days]), were included. The study involved a 3-week EMA burst design with bursts occurring quarterly over 12 months. Multilevel logistic regressions indicated on drinking days when participants reported being more willing than their own average to pre-game (OR = 1.77, <.001), black out (OR = 1.46, <.05), or drink before hooking up (OR = 1.68, <.001), they were more likely to pregame, black out, and hook up, respectively, whereas general willingness to drink was not associated with any outcomes at the daily level.Results suggest willingness to engage in specific behaviors may be essential to target in prevention programming in comparison to general willingness to drink when aiming to reduce specific risk behaviors.

对饮酒日赛前、停电和勾搭意愿的日常检查：与青少年和年轻人各自行为结果的关联

研究表明，总体饮酒意愿（即“您今晚喝酒的意愿如何？”）每天都会波动，并且与日常饮酒水平相关。然而，尚不清楚参与特定酒精相关行为的意愿是否与超出日常饮酒意愿的实际参与程度相关。本研究检验了日常参与特定行为（即游戏前、昏迷、勾搭）的意愿是否预示着在饮酒日从事这些相应行为的程度是否超出了一个人的一般饮酒意愿。参与者包括青少年和年轻人，他们是认知和饮酒纵向生态瞬时评估（EMA）研究的一部分。报告包括在周末（即周五和周六 [N = 3,727 天]）饮酒的参与者（N = 675；43% 男性）。该研究涉及为期 3 周的 EMA 爆发设计，在 12 个月内每季度发生一次爆发。多级逻辑回归表明，在饮酒日，参与者报告比自己的平均水平更愿意赛前（OR = 1.77，<.001）、停电（OR = 1.46，<.05）或在勾搭前喝酒（OR = 1.68，<.001)，他们更有可能分别在赛前、昏厥和勾搭，而一般饮酒意愿与日常水平的任何结果无关。结果表明，参与特定行为的意愿可能会影响当旨在减少特定危险行为时，与一般饮酒意愿相比，预防规划的目标至关重要。
