This cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate which components of acculturation relate to drinking games participation among Hispanic college students. We also sought to examine whether the relationships between acculturation and drinking games would differ from the associations between acculturation and other alcohol-related outcomes.
A sample of 1,397 Hispanic students aged 18-25 (75% women; 77% US-born) from 30 US colleges and universities completed a confidential online survey.
Associations among acculturative processes, drinking games participation, general alcohol consumption, and negative drinking consequences differed across gender. Most significant findings emerged in the domain of cultural practices. For women, US cultural practices were associated with greater general alcohol consumption, drinking games frequency, and amount of alcohol consumed while gaming, whereas for men, US cultural practices were associated with general alcohol consumption and negative drinking consequences.
Hispanic and US cultural practices, values, and identifications were differentially associated with drinking games participation, and these associations differed by gender. It is therefore essential for college student alcohol research to examine US culture acquisition and Hispanic culture retention separately and within the domains of cultural practices, values, and identifications.
本横断面研究旨在调查文化适应的哪些组成部分与西班牙裔大学生参与饮酒游戏有关。我们还试图检验文化适应与饮酒游戏之间的关系是否与文化适应和其他酒精相关结果之间的关联有所不同。
从美国30所学院和大学抽取了1397名年龄在18 - 25岁之间的西班牙裔学生(75%为女性;77%在美国出生)作为样本,他们完成了一项保密的在线调查。
文化适应过程、参与饮酒游戏、一般酒精消费和负面饮酒后果之间的关联因性别而异。最显著的发现出现在文化实践领域。对于女性而言,美国文化实践与更高的一般酒精消费、饮酒游戏频率以及游戏时的饮酒量相关,而对于男性,美国文化实践与一般酒精消费和负面饮酒后果相关。
西班牙裔和美国的文化实践、价值观及认同与参与饮酒游戏存在不同程度的关联,且这些关联因性别而异。因此,对于大学生酒精研究而言,在文化实践、价值观和认同领域分别审视美国文化习得和西班牙裔文化保留至关重要。
