Distress tolerance(DT) has been considered as an important factor that contributes to manifestations, maintenance, relapses, and treatment compliances of alcohol use problems. Although many studies examined the roles and mechanisms of DT in problematic alcohol use, they proposed different ideas about its roles or reported inconsistent results. Thus systematic and critical reviews are needed for this literature. The present study aimed to review researches that had examined the relationship between DT and problematic alochol use and understand the roles of DT in the development of alcohol use problems clearly. It was found that DT has close relationship with alcohol use motives and moderates the links between negative experience related to negative life events and alcohol uses. Additionally, the inhibitory control function was found to be closely associated with DT. A comprehensive model depicting the relationships between DT and problematic alcohol use was developed and some specific directions about future researches were suggested.
