Depressive and anxiety symptoms are increasingly common, and problematic alcohol use remains prevalent in college. To expand on prior research on mostly white samples, we surveyed first-year students of color from our predominately white university (Southeastern US) to identify risk factors for mental health symptoms and potentially co-occurring problematic alcohol use. Results showed significant associations between microaggressions and poor campus climate (hypothetical predictors) with depressive, anxiety, somatic symptoms (hypothetical outcomes) that were indirectly linked through perceived stress, poor sleep, and academic burnout (hypothetical mediators). Poor campus climate, academic burnout, and using alcohol to cope were the most relevant to alcohol use disorder symptoms. Results support efforts to address and reduce racial microaggressions and promote a positive campus climate for all.
抑郁和焦虑症状越来越普遍，而有问题的饮酒行为在大学生中仍然很常见。为了扩展之前对主要为白人样本的研究，我们对来自美国东南部以白人为主的大学的有色人种一年级学生进行了调查，以确定心理健康症状以及可能同时出现的有问题饮酒行为的风险因素。结果显示，微侵犯和不良校园氛围（假设预测因素）与抑郁、焦虑、躯体症状（假设结果）之间存在显著关联，这些症状通过感知压力、睡眠不足和学业倦怠（假设中介因素）间接联系起来。不良校园氛围、学业倦怠以及用酒精来应对与酒精使用障碍症状最为相关。研究结果支持为解决和减少种族微侵犯行为以及为所有人营造积极校园氛围所做的努力。
