Abstract: This two-year longitudinal study mainly explored the developmental relationship between alcohol expectancies and drinking behavior.About 1000 adolescents in Beijing were selected to fill in the questionnaires.The results indicated that:(1)both drinking behavior and alcohol expectancies were increased during the two years.While the girl's developmental rates of drinking behavior and positive alcohol expectancy are higher than those of the boys.(2)as the low grade students reached higher grades,they demonstrated more varieties of drinking behavior and alcohol expectancies than the general level of the same grade a year ago.(3)the basic relationship among drinking behavior,positive expectancy and negative expectancy remained stable during the two years.But the effect of negative expectancy decreased while the effect of positive expectancy increased.

Key words: alcohol expectancy, drinking behavior, adolescents, longitudinal research
