OBJECTIVE
The objective of the present study was to identify factors associated with increased alcohol use during the COVID-19 pandemic among a sample of drinkers and heavy drinkers US-born Latino adults.
METHODS
Hierarchal logistic regression modelling was employed to evaluate associations between the increased use of alcohol during the pandemic and potential risk factors.
RESULTS
Participants in the medium and high adverse COVID-19 impact classes reported higher odds (AOR: 7.63, 95 % CI: 2.34-24.84) of increasing their alcohol use during the pandemic. Higher education (AOR: 7.63, 95 % CI: 2.34-24.84), immigration stress (AOR: 2.53, 95 % CI: 1.35-4.75), and drinking to cope (AOR: 1.13, 95 % CI: 1.06-1.19) were positively associated with increased alcohol use during the pandemic.
CONCLUSION
Stressors stemming from adverse consequences resulting from the pandemic may negatively influence the alcohol use behaviors of US-born Latinos, which may potentially exacerbate existing racial/ethnic alcohol-related disparities.
目的
本研究的目的是在一群美国出生的拉丁裔成年饮酒者和重度饮酒者样本中，确定与新冠疫情期间酒精使用增加相关的因素。
方法
采用分层逻辑回归模型来评估疫情期间酒精使用增加与潜在风险因素之间的关联。
结果
新冠疫情负面影响程度为中度和高度的参与者报告称，在疫情期间增加酒精使用的几率更高（调整后比值比：7.63，95%置信区间：2.34 - 24.84）。高等教育程度（调整后比值比：7.63，95%置信区间：2.34 - 24.84）、移民压力（调整后比值比：2.53，95%置信区间：1.35 - 4.75）以及为缓解情绪而饮酒（调整后比值比：1.13，95%置信区间：1.06 - 1.19）与疫情期间酒精使用增加呈正相关。
结论
疫情带来的不良后果所产生的压力源可能会对美国出生的拉丁裔的酒精使用行为产生负面影响，这可能会加剧现有的种族/族裔酒精相关差异。
