Factors affecting the drinking patterns of 183 pregnant, African-American, Hispanic, and White adolescents were investigated, including the influence of peers, sexual partners, family members, and mentors. Among participants who drank alcohol prior to their pregnancies, 87% quit or cut back on their drinking behaviors. Those adolescents who lived in environments where their partners, peers, and relatives were drinking and using drugs were more likely to have consumed alcohol in the previous month, while adolescents who identified mentors and/or parents who provided high levels of support were less likely to have consumed alcohol. Finally, distinct patterns of both drinking and life circumstances among the African-American, Hispanic, White adolescents were revealed. The implications of these findings for future research and intervention with pregnant adolescents are discussed.
对183名怀孕的非裔、西班牙裔和白人青少年的饮酒模式影响因素进行了调查，包括同龄人、性伴侣、家庭成员和导师的影响。在怀孕前饮酒的参与者中，87%的人戒酒或减少了饮酒行为。那些生活在伴侣、同龄人和亲戚饮酒及吸毒环境中的青少年，上个月饮酒的可能性更大，而那些有提供高度支持的导师和/或父母的青少年饮酒的可能性较小。最后，揭示了非裔、西班牙裔、白人青少年饮酒和生活环境的不同模式。讨论了这些发现对未来针对怀孕青少年的研究和干预的意义。
