Pedersen, E. 2009. Gender and Dating Relationship Status Moderate the Association Between Alcohol Use and Sex-related Alcohol Expectancies. Addictive Behaviors. Vol. 34 Issue 9, p786-789 4p 03064603
This article examined alcohol usage by young adults who were actively dating, in serious relationships, or not actively dating and their sexual expectancies based on alcohol usage. They found that when young adults are actively dating they consume more alcohol than those who are in steady relationships or not actively dating. Single (dating) participants of this survey had higher sexual expectancies ((1) I would be a better lover, (2) I would enjoy sex more, (3) I would feel sexier, and (4) It would be easier to act out my fantasies) than those who were relationships or not dating. Men and women had similar sexual expectancies with alcohol whether they were dating or not.
