Validation of factor structures of the Drinking Motives Questionnaire among the Czech young and adult general population

The Czech version of the DMQ-R was found to be a reliable measurement tool of the Social, Conformity, and Coping motives. Future research should investigate the dimensionality of the instrument items presumed to correspond to the Enhancement motives. This should be conducted particularly among adolescents and young adults aged 15-24 years, where administering the DMQ-R with a large enough sample is also needed.
