很少有研究调查老年妇女的饮酒情况。使用具有全国代表性的全国药物使用和健康调查，我们检查了50岁以上女性（n = 21，178）的狂欢，适度和无酒精消费。我们通过年龄计算人口患病率，并使用多变量logistic回归，控制7个社会人口因素。在调整后的结果中，65岁以上的女性比50-64岁的女性更有可能适度饮酒或不饮酒;西班牙裔和非洲裔美国女性比白人更有可能进行狂欢消费（所有p <0.01）。需要更多的研究来了解少数种族/族裔老年妇女的酗酒情况。
Few studies have examined alcohol consumption among older women. Using the nationally representative National Survey on Drug Use and Health, we examined binge, moderate, and no alcohol consumption among women ages 50+ (n = 21,178). We calculated population prevalence by age and used multivariate logistic regression, controlling for seven sociodemographic factors. In adjusted results, women ages 65+ were more likely to have moderate or no alcohol consumption than those 50-64; Hispanic and African American women were more likely to engage in binge consumption than whites (all p < .01). More research is needed to understand binge alcohol consumption among older women in racial/ethnic minorities.
