美国拉美裔人口中的药物滥用似乎处于动态加速状态,尽管美国出生和外国出生的拉美裔之间以及拉美裔亚群体(即墨西哥人、古巴人、波多黎各人和中美洲或南美洲人)的药物使用模式存在差异。需要了解文化调整对吸毒的影响,才能有效预测美国最大、快速增长的少数群体非法吸毒的范围和规模。本文对当前西班牙裔吸毒情况进行了流行病学概述,总结了文化变迁与吸毒之间关系的研究,根据个人、社会(即家庭和同伴群体)和社区层面对吸毒的影响进行了组织,并为未来的研究提供了系统的议程。 (c) 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Drug abuse in the U.S. Hispanic population appears to be in a dynamic state of acceleration, although there are differences in drug use patterns between U.S.-born and foreign-born Hispanics, and across Hispanic subgroups (i.e., Mexican, Cuban, Puerto Rican, and Central or South American). An understanding of the consequences of cultural adjustments for drug use is needed to effectively anticipate the scope and dimensions of illicit drug use in the largest, rapidly growing, minority group in the U.S.This paper provides an epidemiologic over-view of current Hispanic drug use, summarizes research on the relationship between culture change and drug use, organized according to individual, social (i.e., family and peer group), and community level influences on drug use, and offers a systematic agenda for future research.
