本研究以488名非裔美国青少年为样本，探讨了种族认同和父母支持对酒精使用的预测作用。研究了种族认同的两个维度：（1）种族中心性（即，一个人在定义自己时对种族的重视）和（2）私人方面（即，一个人对黑人的好感程度）。此外，从母亲和父亲的感知支持进行了检查。多变量结果显示，在排除年龄和性别的影响后，私人方面和父亲的支持与自我报告的饮酒量减少有关。两个种族身份维度之间的相互作用也被发现，这样的私人方面与少饮酒的青少年谁报告说，种族是一个更核心的一部分，他们的身份。
This study examined racial identity and parental support as predictors of alcohol use in a sample of 488 African American adolescents. Two dimensions of racial identity were investigated: (1) racial centrality (i.e., the significance that one places on race in defining oneself) and (2) private regard (i.e., the extent to which one feels positively about Black people). In addition, perceived support from mothers and fathers was examined. Multivariate results showed that private regard and father support were associated with less self-reported alcohol use after partialling out the effects of age and gender. An interaction between the two racial identity dimensions was also found such that private regard was associated with less alcohol use for adolescents who reported that race was a more central part of their identity.
