Neuroticism, another dispositional personality trait, was only significant predictor for motivation for alcohol use as adjusted by gender. Male's neuroticism was positively correlated with enhancement motives and coping motives for alcohol use, and extraversion positively correlated with social motives. Whereas female's neuroticism and extraversion were positively correlated with social motives. enhancement motives, and coping motives. And, female's openness was also positively correlated with social motives and enhancement motives for alcohol use. Conclusion: The present study suggests that personality is more strongly related to motivation for alcohol use than drinking behavior itself, and relationship between personality and motivation for alcohol use is more valid for females.
