A cognitive model of binge drinking: the influence of alcohol expectancies and drinking refusal self-efficacy

Article Abstract:

The study reveals that a cognitive model is developed using the key constructs of alcohol expectancies (AEs) and drinking refusal self-efficacy (DRSE) to explain the acquisition and maintenance of binge drinking. It also reveals that since AE and DRSE are cognitive models they can facilitate the design of intervention and prevention strategies for binge drinking.
