The purpose of this dissertation was to identify negative (symptoms of depression, aggression, sensation seeking, perceived stress, hostility, and urgency) and positive (perseverance, optimism, mindfulness, social self-efficacy, and self-control) dispositional characteristics associated with alcohol use in a cohort of 10th -11th grade academic high school and vocational school students in Chengdu, China. Baseline dispositional characteristics were analyzed to infer causal alcohol use behavior at follow up (N=4873, Study 1; N=3599, Studies 2 and 3). The research classified important dispositional and social determinants contributing to varying levels of alcohol use (past 30-day alcohol use and female/male binge drinking) and alcohol use patterns (i.e. abstainers, initiators, continuous users, quitters). Results revealed that females participated in past 30-day alcohol use as frequently as males, vocational students were more likely to use alcohol than academic school students, and males attending vocational school had the highest rates of binge drinking. In addition, both academic and vocational school students reported similar dispositional associations with alcohol use. Continuous users at follow up displayed high levels of negative and low levels of positive dispositional characteristics to a greater extent than did initiators compared to abstainers. High levels of aggression, sensation seeking, and urgency as well as low levels of mindfulness and self-control were robust predictors of alcohol consumption across the three studies regardless of alcohol use levels, alcohol use patterns, gender, or school type. These results demonstrate that dispositional characteristics as well as social and cultural influences are strong antecedents of alcohol use among Chinese adolescents. The findings also strongly suggest the need for public health and policy initiatives aimed at preventing underage and excessive alcohol use.
