520 |a This research attempted to develop a profile of women's moods across the menstrual cycle and to determine alcohol's effects upon those moods. The Profile of Mood States was used to measure mood in 96 female college students who were heavy drinkers. Subjects were randomly assigned to the cells of the balanced placebo design with equal numbers in each of the three menstrual phases (ovulation, premenstruation, menstruation). The four conditions within the design were: expect alcohol/receive placebo; expect placebo/receive placebo; expect alcohol/receive alcohol; and expect placebo/receive alcohol. Subjects were found to differ on age and on Shipley Institute of Living Scale intelligence quotient scores. Prior to any manipulation, subjects in the three menstrual phases reported no mood differences, failing to support the notion of phase-related moods. Over the course of the experiment the only reliable mood changes that did occur were a reduction in tension-anxiety and, possibly, vigor. Alcohol, expectancies, or menstrual phase did not have reliable effects on mood over time. These findings support Social Learning Theory. (Author/NB)
