青少年饮酒是一个重要的公共卫生问题，美国印第安人（AI）青少年的饮酒率高于全国非AI青少年样本。理解人工智能酒精使用的一个潜在因素是文化认同，这可能会因历史创伤的经历而大相径庭。我们用潜在的类分析，以研究AI和白色青少年的文化认同和他们的酒精使用的结果在有关的潜在类solutions.MethodsThe样本包括3189 AI青少年（法师= 14.76，48.9%的女性）和1579白色青少年（法师= 15.56，48.7%的女性）生活或附近的保留。参与者完成了AI和白色文化认同关系，酒精使用和酒精相关问题的自我报告措施。我们研究了（1）最适合的潜在类解决方案与美国印第安人（AI）和白色文化身份;（2）等价的潜在类解决方案;和（3）酒精使用的结果在最佳的潜在类solution.ResultsLatent配置文件分析表明，最佳的3类解决方案在AI和白色样本，不同的隶属度与AI和白色文化身份。虽然类的最佳数量在种族群体之间是相似的（结构特征相似性），但类的性质不同（结构特征相异性）。这三个班级在AI和白色文化认同（边缘化）方面的总体得分较低，在AI和白色文化认同（第三文化）方面的得分较高和较低，在AI和白色文化认同（双文化）方面的得分较高。与边缘化阶层和双文化阶层相比，酒精相关问题预测了第三文化阶层的成员资格。具体来说，第三文化班的青年报告的酒精相关问题明显少于边缘化和双文化班的青年。酒精的使用并没有预测潜在的类membership.ConclusionsThe未来导向的性质的第三文化类可以提供保护，防止不良酒精相关的结果。需要进行研究，以测试针对更大的未来方向和未来计划的干预措施，将文化融入青少年的生活。
BackgroundAdolescent alcohol use is a significant public health concern and rates of alcohol use are higher among American Indian (AI) adolescents than national samples of non‐AI youth. A potential factor in understanding AI alcohol use is cultural identity, which can vary widely based on experiences of historical trauma. We used latent class analysis to examine cultural identity in AI and White adolescents and their alcohol use outcomes in relation to the latent class solutions.MethodsThe samples included 3189 AI adolescents (Mage= 14.76, 48.9% female) and 1579 White adolescents (Mage= 15.56, 48.7% female) living on or near a reservation. Participants completed self‐report measures of AI and White cultural identity affiliation, alcohol use, and alcohol‐related problems. We examined (1) the best‐fitting latent class solution with respect to American Indian (AI) and White cultural identity; (2) equivalence of the latent class solution; and (3) alcohol use outcomes across the optimal latent class solution.ResultsLatent profile analyses indicated an optimal 3‐class solution in both the AI and White samples, which differed by level of affiliation with AI and White cultural identity. While the optimal number of classes were similar across racial groups (configural profile similarity), the nature of the classes differed (structural profile dissimilarity). The three classes represented low overall scores on AI and White cultural identity (Marginalized), a mixture of high and low scores on AI and White cultural identity (Third Culture), and overall high scores on AI and White cultural identity (Bicultural). Alcohol‐related problems predicted membership in the Third Culture class compared with the Marginalized class and the Bicultural class. Specifically, youth in the Third Culture class reported significantly fewer alcohol‐related problems than youth in the Marginalized and Bicultural classes. Alcohol use did not predict latent class membership.ConclusionsThe future‐oriented nature of the Third Culture class may provide protection against adverse alcohol‐related outcomes. Research is needed to test interventions that target greater future orientation and future plans to integrate culture into adolescents' lives.
