在这项研究中,作者在333名城市低收入非裔美国年轻人的样本中检查了(A)民族和种族认同的多个组成部分的保护潜力,以及(B)非洲中心取向对缓解心理行为风险和药物使用的保护因素的方面。在32.5%的病例中,民族和种族认同以及非洲中心变量缓和了心理行为变量与药物阶段之间的关系。对于非洲裔美国年轻人来说,民族和种族认同以及非洲中心主义价值观似乎是心理行为因素和年轻人吸毒之间联系的重要调节因素。作者对未来的研究和干预提出了建议。
In this study, the authors examined (a) the protective potential of multiple components of ethnic and racial identity and (b) the aspects of an Africentric orientation for moderating psychobehavioral risk and protective factors for drug use among a sample of 333 urban low-income African American young adults. Ethnic and racial identity and Africentric variables moderated the relationship between psychobehavioral variables and drug stage in 32.5% of the cases. Ethnic and racial identity and Africentric values for African American young adults seemed to be important as moderators of the association between psychobehavioral factors and young adult drug use. The authors suggested implications for future research and interventions.
