This study assessed the prevalence of alcohol abuse and dependence rates among four major ethnic groups of Hawai'i and examined the relationship among risk factors, protective factors, and demographic variables related to underage drinking. A total of 196 students were administered the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children, the American Drug and Alcohol Survey, and the Prevention Planning Survey. Drinking rates for Native Hawaiian students were significantly higher than those for Japanese and Caucasian students. Multiple logistic regression models accounted for 49% of the variance for any alcohol use. Ethnic group differences were found when data were disaggregated for Asian and Pacific Islander students.
本研究评估了夏威夷四个主要种族群体中酒精滥用和依赖率，并研究了与未成年人饮酒相关的风险因素、保护因素和人口统计学变量之间的关系。总共196名学生接受了儿童诊断访谈表、美国药物和酒精调查以及预防规划调查。夏威夷原住民学生的饮酒率显著高于日本和白种人学生。多元逻辑回归模型解释了任何酒精使用情况中49%的方差。当对亚洲和太平洋岛民学生的数据进行分类时，发现了种族群体差异。
