N2  - Reports an error in "Measuring university students' self-efficacy to use drinking self-control strategies" by E. E. Bonar, et al. (Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, 2011[Mar], Vol 25[1], 155-161). There is an error in Table 3. Item 8 in the table should have read: "Start off with at least 1 nonalcoholic drink before you start drinking alcohol." (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2011-05934-004.) Using a Web-based, self-administered questionnaire, we assessed 498 university-student drinkers' self-efficacy to use 31 different behavioral strategies to reduce excessive drinking in each of three different locations (bar, party, own dorm/apartment). Averaging all 31 items within each drinking situation to create a single scale score revealed high internal consistency reliabilities and moderate inter-item correlations. Testing the association of self-efficacy with drinking location, sex, and frequency of recent binge drinking, we found that respondents reported higher self-efficacy to use these strategies when drinking in their own dorm/apartment than when drinking in bars and at parties; women reported higher mean self-efficacy than men; and drinkers who engaged in 3-or-more binges in the previous 2 weeks reported lower self-efficacy than those who reported either 0 or 1-or-2 binges in the same time period. This questionnaire could be used to identify self-efficacy deficits among clients with drinking problems and as an outcome measure to assess the degree to which interventions influence reported confidence to use specific drinking-reduction strategies in high-risk drinking situations.
