The current investigation examined the indirect effect of negative urgency (NU) on alcohol use problems through distress intolerance (DI) and negative reinforcement based drinking motives (coping and conformity). The results of serial mediation analyses confirmed this relation supporting for the utility of interventions that target NU and DI.
