Alcohol use disorders (AUDs), compulsive sexual behavior (CSB), and problematic pornography use (PPU) are prevalent disorders among adolescents. Research indicates an increase in the number of adolescents engaging in daily alcohol, porn consumption, and sexual behavior, as well as an increase in the number of adolescents diagnosed with these disorders. The aim of the current study was to detect unique factors of these addictive behaviors with mental health, moral disapproval, thought suppression, and self-concealment and examine whether these factors could explain the different profile severities of AUDs, PPU, and CSB among Israeli-Arab adolescents. The sample comprised 622 Israeli-Arab adolescents (64% boys, 36% girls; ages 14-18). First, by using network analysis we found three factors: (1) alcohol use, (2) CSB, problematic pornography use, and mental health, and (3) moral disapproval, thought suppression, and self-concealment of pornography and sexual behavior. Second, by using latent profile analysis we identified five distinct profiles based on the three detected factors: (1) low alcohol use amidst high CSB and moral disapproval, thought suppression, and self-concealment; (2) low CSB, pornography, and alcohol use; (3) average CSB, pornography, and alcohol use; (4) high CSB, pornography, and alcohol use; and (5) high CSB, pornography, and alcohol use amidst low disapproval, thought suppression, and self-concealment levels. The findings underscore that unique profiles strongly correlate with different addictive behaviors among adolescents. The current research contributes to the field by offering a more personalized approach to comprehending addictive behaviors and culture-related risk factors among Israeli-Arab adolescents.
酒精使用障碍(AUDs)、强迫性行为(CSB)和问题性色情内容使用(PPU)是青少年中普遍存在的障碍。研究表明,每日饮酒、消费色情内容和进行性行为的青少年数量有所增加,被诊断患有这些障碍的青少年数量也有所增加。本研究的目的是通过心理健康、道德不赞同、思想抑制和自我隐瞒来检测这些成瘾行为的独特因素,并检验这些因素是否能够解释以色列阿拉伯青少年中AUDs、PPU和CSB不同的严重程度特征。样本包括622名以色列阿拉伯青少年(64%为男孩,36%为女孩;年龄在14至18岁之间)。首先,通过网络分析我们发现了三个因素:(1)酒精使用,(2)CSB、问题性色情内容使用和心理健康,以及(3)对色情内容和性行为的道德不赞同、思想抑制和自我隐瞒。其次,通过潜在类别分析,我们基于检测到的三个因素确定了五个不同的类别:(1)在高CSB以及道德不赞同、思想抑制和自我隐瞒的情况下低酒精使用;(2)低CSB、色情内容和酒精使用;(3)中等CSB、色情内容和酒精使用;(4)高CSB、色情内容和酒精使用;以及(5)在低不赞同、思想抑制和自我隐瞒水平下的高CSB、色情内容和酒精使用。研究结果强调,独特的类别与青少年中不同的成瘾行为密切相关。当前的研究通过提供一种更个性化的方法来理解以色列阿拉伯青少年中的成瘾行为和与文化相关的风险因素,为该领域做出了贡献。
