使用无家可归的援助提供者和客户（NSHAPC）的全国调查的数据，无家可归者，以前无家可归者和边缘居住的老年人中当前的酒精和药物滥用问题的预测。儿童期性侵犯、受害和忽视、男性、年轻、无家可归或以前无家可归、少数民族、每月收入低于499美元增加了报告毒品问题的几率。男性、年轻、无家可归、患有精神疾病增加了报告酒精问题的几率。报告任何类型的物质使用问题都会增加报告其他问题的可能性。
Using data from the National Survey of Homeless Assistance Providers and Clients (NSHAPC), predictors of current alcohol and drug misuse problems among homeless, previously homeless, and marginally housed older adults are identified. Childhood sexual assault, victimization, and neglect, being male, being younger, being homeless or previously homeless, being a minority, and having income below US$499 per month increased the odds of reporting a drug problem. Being male, being younger, being homeless, having mental illness increased the odds of reporting an alcohol problem. Reporting any type of substance use problem increased the odds of reporting the other.
