Compliance with event-contingent ecological momentary assessments and subjective follow-ups during drinking episodes.

ABSTRACT: One of the most ecologically valid methods of assessing alcohol use is event-contingent ecological momentary assessments, being self-initiated ecological momentary assessments when drinking commences. However, studies of compliance with event-contingent drinking reports, and subjective momentary follow-ups thereafter, are scant. These reports are particularly important in alcohol research, as they glean subjective assessments during acute drinking moments. This study tested patterns and predictors of compliance with event-contingent reports and subsequent subjective follow-ups during drinking episodes. Young adults (N = 131) completed event-contingent reports after their first drink, with subjective follow-ups sent 60 min and 120 min later for 21 days. Participants also completed mo
