“…Next, two sets of logistic regression models were run, based on an a priori iterative model building process, with current alcohol use and binge drinking as separate dependent variables. The first model for each outcome included trying to lose weight as the primary independent variable; the second model added demographic variables (grade, race/ethnicity); the third model included potential confounding variables (depressive symptoms, current cigarette use, talking with an adult about a problem); and the final model added past week exercise, as this as been associated with a desire to lose weight among adolescent females (Vingren, 2013) and was therefore important to control for as it could impact the primary associations.…”

“…The following variables have been associated with trying to lose weight and/or current alcohol use or binge drinking: depression, current cigarette use, talking with a teacher or an adult at school about a problem, and exercising (Atkins, Oman, Vesely, Aspy, & McLeroy, 2002;Merrill, Kleber, Shwartz, Liu, & Lewis, 1999;Oman et al, 2004;Tomori & Rus-Makovec, 2000;Vingren, 2013). Depressive symptoms.…”

Drinking and exercise behaviors among college students: between and within-person associations

et al. 2017

Prior work has suggested a paradoxical positive relationship between the risk behavior alcohol use and the health behavior exercise, particularly in young adults. Though seldom tested, different theoretical perspectives exist on the mechanisms that may explain the positive relationship. The aims of this study were to test theorized mechanisms of association, including common causes shared by both behaviors (e.g., personality, motives, affective), compensatory processes such as exercising to compensate for calories from alcohol consumption, and methodological confounds (e.g., between vs. within subject effects) in a college sample (N = 132; 56.3% male; 76% Caucasian; M = 19.15, SD = 0.99) using a cross-sectional design and time line follow back methods. A positive, between-subjects association between alcohol and exercise was found and explained by exercising to compensate for calories of alcohol consumption, enhancement motives, and physical activity enjoyment. However, we also observed a significant and negative within-subjects association between the two constructs, suggesting that, on a given day, individuals who exercise more tended to drink less. Furthermore, individuals who exercised more during the week tended to have declines in weekend drinking over time. Results suggest a complex relationship between exercise and alcohol use among young adults, and highlight the importance of distinguishing between and within subject processes, as well as the temporal ordering of the two behaviors. Implications are discussed in regard to theory, prevention, and intervention.
