This paper examines the relationship between attitudes toward appropriate drinking and acculturation among U.S. Hispanics. Respondents comprise a multi-stage probability sample of the U.S. Hispanic population. A total of 1453 individuals were interviewed. The overall response rate is 72%. In accordance with previous findings establishing a positive association between drinking and acculturation, it was hypothesized that the more acculturated individuals would have more liberal attitudes, allowing more drinking especially for women. The results support this hypothesis. Generally, respondents who are more acculturated have more liberal attitudes independent of sex and age. However, these results are more consistent when attitudes refer to specific gender and age groups than when attitudes refer to specific drinking contexts.
本文探讨了美国西班牙裔人群中对适度饮酒的态度与文化适应之间的关系。受访者是美国西班牙裔人口的多阶段概率样本。总共采访了1453人。总体回应率为72%。根据先前关于饮酒与文化适应之间存在正相关的研究结果，研究假设文化适应程度越高的个体态度越开放，允许更多饮酒，尤其是女性。结果支持了这一假设。一般来说，文化适应程度较高的受访者无论性别和年龄都有更开放的态度。然而，当态度涉及特定性别和年龄组时，这些结果比当态度涉及特定饮酒情境时更一致。
