Women's alcohol consumption : personal, familial, and geopolitical dimensionsGoetz, Kathryn W. 21 October 1994 (has links)
A sample of 1,003 women, age 22 in 1983-84 and age 27 in 1988-89, were
selected from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. Personal, familial, and
geopolitical predictors of alcohol consumption were evaluated at each time period and
longitudinally. The study integrated macro- and micro-level influences to determine
their influence on individual alcohol consumption. Personal and familial were most
influential. Availability of alcohol and political economy had little effect on
consumption. Mother's history of alcohol abuse was more important than father's. At
age 22 education, being married, and having children reduced consumption, as did a
prior affiliation with a religion that proscribed the use of alcohol reduced consumption.
At age 27 education, being married, and children decreased consumption, but religious
affiliation and parent's consumption were not significant. While marital status at age
22 reduced drinking at that age, it lead to greater consumption at age 27. / Graduation date: 1995

The association of demographic characteristics, life event stress, social support and personality with depression, psychosomatic disorders and alcohol useVulcano, Brent A. January 1985 (has links)
The present study examined the relationship between life event stress, illness and alcohol use as a function of one's social support level and personality, while taking into account the "contamination" of past life event research and the potential differential response to life event stress (i.e., depression, psychosomatic disorders and alcohol use). Three hundred and three university undergraduate students voluntarily completed an extensive questionnaire. In addition to demographics and life event stress, predictor variables measured were: social support, including loneliness; anxiety, rationality, and self concept. Outcome measures included depression, psychosomatic disorders, and alcohol use. According to the study results, life event stress was observed to be associated with mental and physical illness but was found to be unrelated to alcohol use. The "contaminated" events seemed to account for the stress-illness relationship. Uncontaminated life stressors did not interact with social support or personality variables to predict any of the outcome measures. Further, according to canonical correlation analysis, the predictor canonical variables related similarly, not differentially, to the outcome canonical variables. Life event stress did not seem to predict different outcomes among different people. It was concluded that little, if any, relationship exists between life stress and mental or physical illness, nor does this study provide support for a relationship between life event stress and alcohol use. These findings were suggested to be as a result of methodological problems. In the future, there is a need to reconceptualize stress and measure it differently, including utilizing longitudinal designs.

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION AMONG IRISH-AMERICANS AND JEWISH-AMERICANS: CONTRIBUTIONS FROM ARCHAEOLOGY.STASKI, EDWARD. January 1983 (has links)
Archaeological methods can contribute to the understanding of current human issues, including the use and abuse of alcohol in American society. Popular stereotypes concerning drinking have influenced scholarly descriptions and interpretations. There is, for instance, widespread and questionable acceptance by researchers that ethnic identification often correlates strongly with rates of alcohol consumption. Through refuse analysis, this study suggests that no such correlation exists, at least as far as household alcohol use is concerned. Instead, it is found that the degree of social heterogeneity within households, causing stress among individuals, is positively associated with consumption rates. Ethnicity might be related more closely to expressed attitudes about drinking, though results are inconclusive. The archaeological investigation of late 19th century drinking habits is possible, and might contribute to historical studies in a way similar to how this study contributes to sociological and psychological approaches.

Poor Reading Ability as a Risk Factor for Alcohol Use in College StudentsMesman, Glenn Ryan 01 December 2010 (has links)
Although collegiate alcohol use has extensively been studied, there is a lack of research examining alcohol use in college students with learning disabilities (LD), particularly those with reading disabilities (RD). In youth populations there is mixed support indicating that students with LD are at an increased risk for alcohol use compared to students without LD. One theory suggests that LD may be indirectly related to alcohol use, but there does not appear to be research examining whether there is a direct pathway between LD and alcohol use. The goals of this study were to better understand the relation between reading and alcohol use in college students and the psychological well-being of college students with reading difficulties. Results indicated the following: there was no support for a direct pathway between reading ability and alcohol use, college students with low reading achievement did not obtain significantly higher alcohol use scores than students with average or high reading achievement, and there was no significant difference in psychological well-being between students with low, average, and high reading achievement. There was some support for an indirect pathway between reading and alcohol use through correlational analyses; however, reading was not predictive of alcohol use after controlling for gender and ethnicity. Future studies should continue to examine the relation between reading abilities and alcohol use which may lead to a better understanding of the potential difficulties that college students with reading problems encounter.
