Longitudinal analysis for between‐ and within‐person influences of descriptive alcohol drinking norms and attitudes on drinking outcomes
Attitudes toward drinking, particularly heavy drinking, at both between-person and within-person levels, are strong predictors of alcohol use and its consequences. Furthermore, attitude toward moderate drinking are protective. Interventions promoting a moderate drinking attitude and reducing heavy drinking attitude and descriptive drinking norms will likely be effective in reducing alcohol-related harm.
