TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Expectations, alienation, and drinking motives among college men and women JO - Journal of drug education A1 - Bradley, J. R. A1 - Carman, R. S. A1 - Petree, A. SP - 27 EP - 33 VL - 21 IS - 1 N2 - Relationships among three motivational variables (negative-personal functions of drinking, alienation, and perceived discrepancies between valued goals and expected success toward valued goals) were evaluated in a group of 257 college drinkers. As predicted, a positive relationship between alienation scores and the extent of discrepancies between values and expectations for academic and social success was found. Negative-personal drinking functions were positively associated with both alienation and value-expectation discrepancies. Results are discussed in terms of heuristic consistency and potential applications.
