DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Emerging epidemiological and laboratory-based research has documented that the combined consumption of alcohol with energy drinks (AEDs) leads to unique and potentially serious health risks. Specifically, adding caffeine to alcohol increases the quantity of alcohol consumed and decreases subjective feelings of intoxication, however objectively-measured blood alcohol concentration and cognitive/motor impairment remain unreduced. Consumption of energy drinks has risen markedly in the U.S. in the past decade with hundreds of energy drink brands targeting young people. Rising rates of combining energy drinks with alcohol may lead to more severe alcohol-related consequences and problems, yet little is known regarding situational covariates, potential longer-term consequences, or individual risk factors of AED use. The proposed behavioral study will document the consequences of AED consumption among a multi-ethnic sample of college students (N=746), utilizing within-person data on energy drink, alcohol, and AED use. Using a measurement burst design, with 14 consecutive days of data collected in each of 4 consecutive semesters (56 days per participant), this study will address important gaps in the extant knowledge by documenting characteristics of persons, semesters, and days associated with greater risk of AED use, as well as the extent to which AED use predicts the emergence of alcohol-related problems longitudinally. Aim 1 is to test hypotheses about daily-level covariations of AED use with behavioral risks, subjective intoxication, estimated blood alcohol content (eBAC), and health effects. Aim 2 is to document short-term longitudinal consequences of AED use, compared to alcohol use alone. Aim 3 is to identify the risk factors for individuals at greatest risk for consuming AED. High quality within-person data are necessary to identify daily effects of AED use, consequences experienced by heavier users over time, and who is most at risk for use. This proposal is intended to provide essential information to support the development of an intervention program designed to reduce AED use and consequences.

描述（由申请人提供）：新兴流行病学和实验室研究表明，饮酒与能量饮料 (AED) 的结合会导致独特且潜在的严重健康风险。具体来说，在酒精中添加咖啡因会增加饮酒量并减少主观的中毒感觉，但客观测量的血液酒精浓度和认知/运动障碍仍然没有减少。过去十年，美国能量饮料的消费量显着增加，数百个能量饮料品牌瞄准了年轻人。能量饮料与酒精混合使用的比例上升可能会导致更严重的酒精相关后果和问题，但对于情境协变量、潜在的长期后果或 AED 使用的个人风险因素知之甚少。拟议的行为研究将利用有关能量饮料、酒精和 AED 使用的个人数据，记录多种族大学生样本 (N=746) 消费 AED 的后果。这项研究采用突发测量设计，在连续 4 个学期的每个学期（每个参与者 56 天）中收集连续 14 天的数据，通过记录与更大风险相关的人员、学期和日期的特征，解决现有知识中的重要差距AED 使用的情况，以及 AED 使用在多大程度上纵向预测酒精相关问题的出现。目标 1 是检验关于 AED 使用与行为风险、主观中毒、估计血液酒精含量 (eBAC) 和健康影响的日常水平协变的假设。目标 2 是记录与单独使用酒精相比，使用 AED 的短期纵向后果。目标 3 是确定个人的风险因素 服用 AED 的最大风险。高质量的人内数据对于识别 AED 使用的日常影响、长期使用 AED 的用户所经历的后果以及谁使用 AED 的风险最大是必要的。该提案旨在提供重要信息，以支持旨在减少 AED 使用和后果的干预计划的制定。
