    Environmental factors influence problem drinking, but current research is limited. Understanding the interplay between personal and environmental factors requires interactional approaches, despite methodological challenges.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Sociology
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Existing research links environmental factors to problem drinking prevalence and expression.
    • Current understanding of combined personal and environmental influences on problem drinking is limited.
    • Most studies examine individual or environmental variables in isolation or linear combinations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review empirical research on environmental correlates of problem drinking.
    • To highlight the limitations of current approaches in explaining problem drinking.
    • To explore promising alternative interactional/transactional approaches.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing empirical research.
    • Illustration of conceptual and methodological issues using hypothetical data.

  • Discussion of interactional/transactional approaches to problem drinking.

    • Main Results:

    • Environmental factors are empirically related to problem drinking.
    • Current models inadequately explain the combined influence of personal and environmental factors.
    • Interactional/transactional approaches offer greater potential for understanding but present significant challenges.

    Conclusions:

    • A deeper understanding of problem drinking requires moving beyond isolated variable analyses.
    • Interactional or transactional models focusing on person-environment interdependence are promising.
    • Significant conceptual and methodological hurdles must be overcome to implement these advanced approaches.
