本文研究了美国人口中墨西哥裔美国人、波多黎各人、古巴裔美国人和南部/中部美国人在酒精影响下自我报告驾驶(DUI)的比率以及12个月和终身DUI逮捕率。采用多阶段整群抽样设计,从美国五个大都市地区的家庭人口中选择了5224名18岁及以上的个体:迈阿密,纽约,费城,休斯顿和洛杉矶。调查加权应答率为76%。在男性中,21%的墨西哥裔美国人、19.9%的南部/中部美国人、11.6%的波多黎各人和6.9%的古巴裔美国人报告了酒后驾车。妇女的比例较低,从墨西哥裔美国人的9.7%到古巴裔美国人的1.3%不等。墨西哥裔美国人的12个月逮捕率(1.6%)和终身逮捕率(11.2%)最高。根据各种指标,报告DUI的饮酒者比未报告DUI的饮酒者饮酒量更大。然而,大多数酒后驾车事件涉及非酒精依赖的司机。墨西哥裔美国人和中南部/美国人,男性,年轻司机,高中教育程度以下的人,收入较高和饮酒量较高的人更有可能报告DUI和DUI逮捕。这些研究结果表明,美国的西班牙裔民族群体在饮酒和DUI相关经历方面存在差异。(C)2007爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
This paper examines rates of self-reported driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol and 12-month and lifetime DUI arrest rates among Mexican Americans, Puerto Ricans, Cuban Americans and South/Central Americans in the U.S. population. Using a multistage cluster sample design, a total of 5224 individuals 18 years of age and older were selected from the household population in five metropolitan areas of the U.S.: Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Houston and Los Angeles. The survey weighted response rate was 76%. Among men, 21% of Mexican Americans, 19.9% of South/Central Americans, 11.6% of Puerto Ricans and 6.9% of Cuban Americans reported DUI. Rates were lower among women, ranging from 9.7% for Mexican Americans to 1.3% for Cuban Americans. Mexican American men had the highest 12-month arrest rate (1.6%) and the highest lifetime arrest rate (11.2%). Drinkers who reported DUI were heavier drinkers than those not reporting DUI according to a variety of indicators. However, most DUI incidents involved non-alcohol-dependent drivers. Mexican Americans and South Central/Americans, men, younger drivers, those with less than high school education, those with higher income and higher alcohol consumption were more likely to report DUI and DUI arrests. These findings show that Hispanic national groups in the U.S. are diverse regarding drinking and DUI-related experiences. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
