Aims This study aimed to prospectively examine the explanatory value of the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) for the intention to use MD PBS, and to explore its invariance across genders. Method A targeted sampling procedure was used to recruit 339 young adults in the community (Mean age = 21.1; SD = 2.21; female = 50.7%) who completed baseline and 2-month follow-up measures of the constructs of the PMT and for intentions to use each of the five MD PBS. Results The results of regression analyses revealed that the coping appraisal components (response efficacy and self-efficacy) had greater explanatory power for intention to use PBS than the threat appraisal components (perceived vulnerability and perceived severity). Perceived vulnerability to alcohol consequences was not prospectively associated with any specific behavioral intention or with the total MD PBS score. In contrast, perceived severity was prospectively associated with the intention to use three out of five PBS and the total MD score. Regression coefficients showed gender invariance for all six models. Conclusions Our findings suggest that interventions aimed at promoting motivation to use alcohol PBS among young adults could benefit the most from including components that promote self- efficacy to use PBS and the perceived usefulness of PBS for reducing alcohol-related consequences. info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Fil: González-Ponce, Bella M.
