近年来,大学和社区联盟之间的协作努力有助于开展预防干预工作,以减少低收入、少数民族占多数的城市地区青年吸毒和酗酒的流行率。一个经常被用来理解社区成员参与的有效性的理论是McMillian和Chavis(1986)的社区感(SOC)模型。该模型假定4个主要租户(即,归属感、情感联系、需求满足和影响力)导致增强权能。本研究探讨了单个SOC如何影响药物滥用联盟成员(N = 17)在联盟中服务的动机。研究结果探讨了McMillian和Chavis(1986)模型的所有四个租户如何影响社区成员参与联盟,这对预防,政策和进一步研究都有影响。
In recent years, collaborative efforts between universities and community-based coalitions have helped develop prevention-intervention efforts to decrease the prevalence of drug and alcohol use among youth in low-income, majority-minority urban areas. One theory often employed to understand the efficacy of community member involvement is McMillian and Chavis's (1986) sense of community (SOC) model. This model posits how 4 main tenants (i.e., sense of belonging, emotional connection, needs fulfillment, and influence) lead to increased empowerment. The present study examines how individual SOC affected substance abuse coalition members' (N = 17) motivations for serving on a coalition. Findings explore how all four tenants of McMillian and Chavis's (1986) model influenced community members' involvement in the coalition, which have implications for prevention, policy, and further research.
