“…Multilevel models are often complex and analyses on associations between negative affect and drinking are rarely structured in such a way as to test nonlinear associations between negative affect and drinking. It is not uncommon for experience sampling studies to report null, or at least modest associations between negative affect and drinking (Hussong, 2007; Mohr, Arpin, & McCabe, 2015; Swendsen et al, 2000). Although the current study examines changes in negative affect rather than changes in drinking as the outcome, the results suggest that greater attention may need to be given to potential non-linear associations between drinking and NA, with the most robust associations occurring when negative affect is elevated.…”

This study modeled associations between gender, ruminative cognitive style, alcohol use, and the time course of negative affect over the course of 43,111 random assessments in the natural environment. Participants (N=263) completed 49-days of experience sampling over 1.3 years. The data indicated that rumination at baseline was positively associated with alcohol dependence symptoms at baseline as well as higher negative affect over the course of the study. Consistent with negative reinforcement models, drinking served to decrease the persistence of negative affect from moment to moment. However, this ameliorative effect of drinking was evident only among women, suggesting an increased risk for negative reinforcement driven drinking behavior. In addition, rumination appeared to counteract the desired effects of alcohol on mood among women. This suggests that women who ruminate more may be motivated to consume larger amounts of alcohol to achieve the desired effects. Overall, the results indicate that ruminative cognitive style and the persistence of negative affect from moment to moment may reflect an individual vulnerability for the development of alcohol use disorder especially among women.

“…Although epidemiological studies have highlighted the importance of the relationship within the network between peers at the moment of drug use and on the sharing of injecting equipment (Gyarmathy et al, 2010), drug seeking (Furnari et al, 2015;Linas et al, 2015;Mohr et al, 2015;Shadur, Hussong, & Haroon, 2015) and craving, the human study reported here is the first to explore the nature of the relationship within a dyad of peers, and to correlate it with cocaine consumption. It is also the first to find a direct effect of peer familiarity on drug consumption levels.…”

“…To our knowledge, no study to date has specifically focused on the influence of peer presence, peer characteristics and peer familiarity and their effect on stimulant consumption in humans. The few existing studies in this area only examined the influence of peer presence and close relationships on outcomes such as alcohol use (Mohr, Arpin, & McCabe, 2015) and craving during stressful events (Preston et al, 2017).…”

Little is known regarding the influence of the presence of a peer during drug consumption and especially how the relationship between peers (familiarity and dominance) can influence drug consumption. We used here a translational and transdisciplinary approach to explore the influence of peer presence and peer familiarity in rats and humans that self-administer stimulants. In rats, cocaine intake was compared when rats were alone with intake when peers with different characteristics (familiar or not, cocaine naive or not, dominant or subordinate) were present. In humans, 77 cocaine and/or methylphenidate users were asked to detail their most recent drug use episodes and their relationship with peers present at consumption. The results show that in both humans and rats, the risk of cocaine/stimulant consumption was significantly reduced by 37% and 32%, respectively, when a peer was present. Moreover, the lowest risk of consumption was consistently observed when the peer was unfamiliar (vs familiar) with a further 38% and 17% risk reduction, respectively. In rats, a decreased risk of consumption was greater when the peer was cocaine naive (vs non-cocaine naive).The presence of a non-familiar and possibly drug-naive peer is the most efficient condition to diminish stimulant intake. Our results indirectly support the use of harm reduction strategies, in particular supervised consumption rooms for stimulant users.

“…Dvorak and Simons () enrolled 74 moderate drinkers to respond to fixed and random prompts over a 21‐day assessment period, finding a temporal association between negative mood and alcohol use on drinking days. Mohr and colleagues () enrolled 47 moderate‐to‐heavy drinkers to report affect and alcohol consumption 3 times daily for 30 days, finding that greater negative and positive affect are related to greater daily alcohol consumption.…”
