Consistent with expectations, a three-way interaction for drinking identity, decisional balance, and gender with respect to alcohol-related problems emerged. That is, the positive association between drinking identity and alcohol-related problems was stronger for men lower in decisional balance. This is consistent with other research that has demonstrated that men tend to identify more strongly with drinking than women (Foster et al., 2013).Further, the mean of the current sample for males on drinking identity (M = 1.21) was nearly double of that for females (M = .67).These findings highlight the fact that men who are higher in drinking identity and also lower in decisional balance might be at-risk for developing more severe alcohol-related problems relative to men or women lower in drinking identity or decisional balance.Moreover, a similar yet less pronounced pattern was evidenced for women who were higher in drinking identity and lower in decisional balance. Therefore, researchers should consider promoting strategies to increase motivation to change and decrease self-identification with drinking for these at-risk groups of men and women.
