Using structural equation modeling, we examined the relationship of Hispanicism on recent substance use and whether Americanism moderated the effect in a sample of 1,141 Hispanic adolescents. The Bicultural Involvement Questionnaire (BIQ) was used to determine the degree of individual comfort in both Hispanic (Hispanicism) and American (Americanism) cultures. Hispanicism was associated with greater family functioning ( = 0.36, < .05) and school bonding ( = 0.31, < .01); Americanism moderated the effect of Hispanicism on substance use ( = 0.92, < .01). Findings suggest that Hispanic culture was protective against substance use, however those effects differed depending on level of Americanism.
我们采用结构方程模型,在1141名西班牙裔青少年样本中,研究了西班牙文化特征与近期物质使用之间的关系,以及美国文化特征是否调节了这种影响。采用双文化参与问卷(BIQ)来确定个体在西班牙文化(西班牙文化特征)和美国文化(美国文化特征)中的舒适程度。西班牙文化特征与更好的家庭功能(β = 0.36,p <.05)和学校归属感(β = 0.31,p <.01)相关;美国文化特征调节了西班牙文化特征对物质使用的影响(β = 0.92,p <.01)。研究结果表明,西班牙文化对物质使用具有保护作用,然而这些影响因美国文化特征的程度而异。
