“…Motivational models of alcohol use posit that one decides to drink based on beliefs regarding how alcohol will affect one’s behavior, mood, and social standing (Cooper, 1994; Cox & Klinger, 1988; 1990). These models suggest that historical and current factors (e.g., alcohol-related social learning and situational context) lead to the acquisition of personally relevant alcohol outcome expectations, which will encourage either approach toward or avoidance of alcohol use (Cooper, 1994; Kuntsche et al, 2005; Corbin et al, 2020).…”

Objective: Negative affect (NA) is presumed to be an important trigger for drinking, particularly among coping-motivated drinkers. However, diary studies attempting to predict alcohol use from interactions between state NA and coping motives have proved inconsistent. Craving or momentary desire for alcohol may be a more proximal and robust consequence of NA in coping-motivated drinkers. Method: Data were drawn from an ecological momentary assessment investigation. Frequent drinkers (N = 403) carried electronic diaries for 21 consecutive days, recording their drinking behavior, and rating cravings for alcohol and NA. Results: Outside of active drinking episodes, within-person elevations of momentary NA were associated with increased craving intensity, and this effect was more prominent among drinkers with higher dispositional coping motives. There was no significant interaction between coping motives and momentary NA in predicting the occurrence and amount of same-day alcohol use. Significant conditional indirect effects indicated that NA promoted drinking through increases in craving. These indirect effects were stronger among drinkers reporting higher coping motives. Conclusions: Coping motives and within-person fluctuations in NA interactively predict alcohol craving. NA promotes drinking indirectly via increased craving, particularly among coping-motivated drinkers. Alcohol craving may be a proximal and sensitive response channel for investigating interactions between affective distress and coping motives. Public Health Significance StatementThis study found that increases in the negative mood are associated with increased alcohol craving, particularly among drinkers who report stronger dispositional motives to drink to cope with negative moods. In turn, these increases in craving predicted subsequent alcohol use. The craving may be a useful outcome for investigating the interplay among distal drinking motives, situational instigators, and alcohol use.

“…Lastly, little evidence supported that alcohol consumption predicted drinking motives over time (at t1). The Motivational Model of alcohol use contains a feedback loop from alcohol use to future drinking motives (Cox & Klinger, 1988, 1990). Binge drinking predicted coping motives six months later.…”

“…The Motivational Model of alcohol use (Cooper, 1994; Cox & Klinger, 1988, 1990) postulates that the decision to drink is influenced by the anticipated affective change that can occur through positive reinforcement (i.e., obtaining positive affect) or negative reinforcement (i.e., reducing negative affect). This happens either internally (i.e., the psychoactive effects of alcohol) or externally (i.e., rewards from the social environment).…”

Shortly after young adolescents initiate alcohol use, we investigated whether (1) drinking motives are associated with current alcohol use and binge drinking, (2) motives predict these alcohol outcomes 6 months later, and (3) alcohol outcomes predict motives 6 months later. Data on adolescents’ drinking motives and alcohol use were drawn from a Dutch longitudinal 7-wave family study at the timepoint of alcohol use initiation (t0, N = 210, 51.4% male, Mage = 14.01 SD = 1.02) and 6 months later (t1, n = 88). Logistic and linear regressions were conducted. Results indicated that young adolescents mainly drink for social and enhancement motives rather than coping and conformity motives. Shortly after alcohol initiation, social motives were associated with alcohol use at t0 (OR = 1.52), enhancement motives with binge drinking at t0 (OR = 2.35), and coping motives with binge drinking at t0 (OR = 2.62) and at t1 (OR = 3.00). Conformity motives were inversely associated with binge drinking at t0 (OR = 0.42). Binge drinking predicted coping motives at t1 (B = 0.71, SE = −0.35), but no other associations among alcohol use, binge drinking, and drinking motives at t1 were found. Conclusively, this study shows that young adolescents drink to enjoy parties and to get drunk (social and enhancement motives) rather than to fit in (conformity motives). The study also indicates that shortly after alcohol initiation, alcohol to cope represents a reciprocal risk factor for binge drinking that may persist in the future, thus pointing to the importance of drinking motives for drinking behaviors among young adolescents.

“…En effet, de nombreux auteurs considèrent les motivations psychologiques comme étant le principal facteur impliqué dans cette consommation car elles utilisent à la fois des variables issues de l’individu et du contexte (Cooper, 1994; Cox & Klinger, 1988). Cox et Klinger (1988, 1990) proposent au travers du Motivational Model of Alcohol Use de classer les motivations à boire selon deux dimensions sous-jacentes reflétant la valence (i.e., positive ou négative) et l’origine (i.e., interne ou externe) du résultat que l’individu espère atteindre de par sa consommation. Par la suite, Cooper (1994) développe le Four-Factor Model et croise ces deux dimensions de manière à générer quatre motivations à boire caractérisées par (a) une origine interne et un renforcement positif (renforcement, e.g., « parce que c’est amusant »); (b) une origine externe et un renforcement positif (sociale, e.g., « parce que cela améliore les fêtes et les célébrations »); (c) une origine interne et un renforcement négatif (coping, e.g., « pour oublier vos problèmes »), et (d) une origine externe et un renforcement négatif (conformité, e.g., « pour être apprécié·e »).…”

Cette recherche présente la validation française d’outils de mesure de la motivation à boire, cette variable constituant un intérêt majeur dans la compréhension des comportements d’alcoolisation. À ce sujet, les modèles les plus connus sont le Motivational Model of Alcohol Use de Cox et Klinger (1988, 1990) et le Four-Factor Model de Cooper (1994). Actuellement, aucun outil francophone n’est basé sur ces modèles. Pour y remédier, cet article présente la traduction de deux questionnaires largement utilisés pour mesurer les motivations à boire, notamment auprès de la population étudiante qui est reconnue comme davantage à risque de s’alcooliser. Le premier outil s’intéresse aux motivations à boire en général avec le Questionnaire des Motivations à Boire (QMB) correspondant à la version française du Drinking Motive Questionnaire Revised Short Form (DMQ-R SF) de Kuntsche et Kuntsche (2009). Le deuxième outil porte sur les motivations à boire en contexte sportif avec l’Échelle des Motivations Sportives à consommer de l’Alcool (EMSA) qui correspond à la version française de l’Athlete Drinking Scale (ADS) de Martens et al. (2005). Les analyses factorielles exploratoires et confirmatoires ont été réalisées auprès de 630 étudiants avec parmi eux 558 étudiants sportifs. Les résultats obtenus attestent d’une fidélité et d’une validité satisfaisante et retrouvent la structure factorielle des outils originaux tout en appuyant les qualités psychométriques du QMB et de l’EMSA pour leur utilisation en contexte général et sportif. De plus, l’étude des liens entre ces questionnaires et la consommation d’alcool fournit des éléments pour des réflexions cliniques et de recherche dans ce domaine.
