“…Previous research in our laboratory has shown that implicit behavioral attentional biases can be associated with escape drinking habits over and above that predicted by risk for dependence (Forestell, Dickter & Young, 2012) in a college sample. This research demonstrated that although escape drinkers were more likely to report a family history of alcoholism and be dependent on alcohol than non-escape drinkers (e.g., Cahalan et al, 1969; Farber et al, 1980; Jung, 1977; Mennella & Forestell, 2008), when these factors were controlled, escape drinkers displayed a significantly stronger attentional bias for alcohol-related cues than non-escape drinkers for certain alcohol-related cues (Forestell et al, 2012). …”

Rationale Previous work has indicated that implicit attentional biases to alcohol-related cues are indicative of susceptibility to alcohol dependence and escape drinking, or drinking to avoid dysphoric mood or emotions. Objective The goal of the current study was to examine whether alcohol dependence and escape drinking were associated with early neural attentional biases to alcohol cues. Methods EEG data were recorded from 54 college students who reported that they regularly drank alcohol, while they viewed alcohol and control pictures that contained human content (active) or no human content (inactive). Results Those who were alcohol dependent showed more neural attentional bias to the active alcohol-related stimuli than to the matched control stimuli early in processing, as indicated by N1 amplitude. Escape drinkers showed greater neural attention to the active alcohol cues than non-escape drinkers, as measured by larger N2 amplitudes. Conclusions While alcohol dependence is associated with enhanced automatic attentional biases early in processing, escape drinking is associated with more controlled attentional biases to active alcohol cues during a relatively later stage in processing. These findings reveal important information about the time-course of attentional processing in problem drinkers and have important implications for addiction models and treatment.

“…They found the reasons clustered around social and “individual” motives and that frequent drinkers (i.e., daily drinkers) were much more apt to drink for individual than for social reasons. A variety of other terms for individual reasons for drinking have been coined over the years, including coping, immature, escape, or pathological reasons, and the basic results by Riley et al (1948) have been replicated repeatedly (Beckman, 1980; Cahalan & Cisin, 1969; Engels et al, 2005; Farber et al, 1980; Glynn et al, 1983; Hesslebrock et al, 1987; Jung, 1977; Mulford & Miller, 1960; Smith et al, 1993). Virtually all of the research in this area has found that people who drink for personal reasons consume more alcohol, have more alcohol-related problems, and are at greater risk for developing alcohol use disorders than people who drink primarily for socially oriented reasons (Carpenter & Hasin, 1998; Kassel et al, 2000; Prescott et al, 2004; Woldt & Bradley, 2002).…”

The Desired Effects of Drinking (DEOD) is a 36-item, 9-subscale, self-report measure assessing reasons for drinking, concerning three general motives for alcohol use: Coping, Social, and Enhancement. These subscales include Negative Feelings, Self-esteem, Relief, Positive Feelings, Social Facilitation, Assertion, Drug Effects, Sexual Enhancement, and Mental effects. As part of the COMBINE study, scores from the nine DEOD subscales, along with additional information about alcohol consumption and consequences, were incorporated into personalized client feedback as part of a motivational enhancement intervention and as a guide for the development of a plan for treatment and change. With responses from a clinical sample of 572 individuals seeking alcohol treatment, the 9-subscale structure of the instrument was substantiated through a second-order confirmatory factor analysis, revealing moderately large to large factor loadings and good indices of model fit. A third-order factor analysis indicated these nine subscales adequately represented the three drinking motives. It is suggested these three general motives for alcohol use, which may be more distinctly delineated into the nine dimensions reflected in the DEOD structure, can be used clinically to help plan appropriate interventions and facilitate behavior change.

“…As predicted by the CB-TRT, studies have shown that individuals consume more alcohol than usual when drinking for the purpose of coping with distress and that drinking for this purpose is most likely among those who (a) expect alcohol to be effective in reducing distress and (b) doubt their own effectiveness in managing distress without alcohol (Jung, 1977;Kassel et al, 2000;Laurent et al, 1997).…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: As part of the 75th anniversary edition of the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs, this article reviews research on the relationship between mental disorders and substance use disorders ("comorbidity") from 1940-the journal's inception-to the present. Method: First, a survey of the titles and abstracts of all articles published in the journal was used to identify those articles pertaining to comorbidity. Seminal and representative works from this set of articles and a limited selection of articles from other journals were included in the review. Results: The early psychosocial research emphasized psychoanalytic formulations of alcohol use as a defensive symptom, which informed the early experimental research on the tension-reducing properties of alcohol. The "cognitive revolution," occurring in the 1970s, enabled an expansion of the tension-reduction theory to include a central role for mental processes (e.g., alcohol expectancies) in promoting drinking to cope with negative affectivity. The early clinical research characterized mental conditions commonly co-occurring with alcohol disorders and considered their etiological relationship to alcohol disorders. The "neo-Kraepelinian revolution" in psychiatry, which also occurred in the 1970s, infused the clinical comorbidity research with a more rigorous diagnostic technology and a range of biomedical research methodologies to study the mechanistic linkages of co-occurring disorders. Conclusions: Although a substantial quantity of scientifi c information on comorbidity has accumulated over the past 75 years, a standard model(s) of comorbidity has yet to congeal. Barriers and opportunities related to achieving this important goal are discussed. (J. Stud. Alcohol Drugs, Supplement 17, 50-58, 2014)
