对非裔美国人和白人青年(N=405)进行了为期8年的年度评估,提供了9-20岁的酒精使用数据。酒精的使用随着年龄的增长而增加,酗酒、醉酒、同伴饮酒和获得酒精的容易程度也是如此。在年轻的时候,通常的酒精饮料是葡萄酒;年龄较大的人更喜欢其他饮料。非洲裔美国人报告饮酒、酗酒、醉酒、同伴饮酒和鼓励饮酒的人数少于白人。这些结果支持并扩展了之前的发现,并表明环境影响可能有助于解释非裔美国人和白人青年之间酒精使用的差异和相似之处。
African American and White youth (N=405) were assessed annually for 8 years, providing alcohol use data spanning from ages 9-20 years. Alcohol use increased with age, as did binge drinking, drunkenness, peer alcohol use, and ease of obtaining alcohol. At younger ages, the usual alcoholic drink was wine; other drinks were preferred at older ages. Fewer African Americans than Whites reported alcohol use, binge drinking, drunkenness, peer alcohol use, and encouragement of alcohol. These results support and extend previous findings and suggest that contextual influences may help explain alcohol use differences and similarities between African American and White youth.
