Personality alcohol consumption

“

Lower Frankness scale scores increased the risk for excessive AC. Therefore, the young Romanian students in the analyzed sample who were characterized by orientation towards norms and rules, and who were interested in making a good impression had an increased risk of belonging to the cluster with problematic AC. This distancing from dominant society and conformity with a possibly rebellious, heavy-drinking subgroup can create feelings of excitement and belonging. Educational interventions must be focused on increasing healthy autonomy, using critical thinking, and finding a balance between the internal and external loci of control, as well as diplomatically promoting a good life model. Drinking alcohol could make a person talk more, tell the truth more easily, and make up stories. An idea emerges from this study, which of course should be explored in depth in the future, namely that people who have the personality trait of honesty are less likely to consume alcohol in order to have the courage to speak or tell the truth. Frankness is healthy and a protective factor against problematic alcohol consumption. Hypercriticism and perfectionism on the part of parents generates the feeling of not being good enough whatever you do and the anxiety of making mistakes can develop; in the struggle to hide the weaknesses, an emotional distress appears that the person can try to overcome by consuming alcohol. More attention should be given to these factors that may correlate with problematic alcohol use.
