Enjoyment, Sport, Sensation Seeking, Alcohol consumptionAbstract
The aim of this work is to study the predictive power of enjoyment and personal fulfillment in alcohol consumption of young athletes, exploring the role of impulsive sensation seeking and gender in its relationship. Method. Participants: 362 young athletes (15 to 29 years old) from Argentina. Instruments: Sociodemographic Questionnaire, Scale of Enjoyment in Sport, Scale of Sense of Personal fulfillment, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, and Sensation Seeking Scale. Results. Athletes who consume alcohol infrequently have greater enjoyment and greater personal fulfillment compared to those who consume frequently. Among men, involvement, positive affect, and personal fulfillment predict the frequency of consumption, while among women only involvement was predictive. Likewise, involvement predicts a lower frequency of consumption and absence of episodic excessive consumption only in young people with low sensation seeking. Conclusions. Working to facilitate the enjoyment of sports could be one of the possible strategies to increase the positive effects of sports practice on alcohol consumption, although it is necessary to continue investigating the case of young people who present a high impulsive sensation seeking trait.
