“…Although there is a growing body of literature on drinking and gender equality [26], we found a population that comprised of a preponderance of men; they also reported a higher ASSIST score at baseline. This is in support of reports showing that men generally drink more than women [27], and more likely to have alcohol-related harm [28]. The higher drinking rate in men may in part reflect the observation that men tend to become less intoxicated than women at an equivalent dose of alcohol [29].…”

“…The type of intervention was based on their level of risk. For lower risk (score 0-10), general health advice was provided, for moderate risk (score [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27], brief intervention and a take home booklet were given and for high risk (score 27+), brief intervention, take home booklet were given, in addition each of them were referred for specialist assessment and treatment.…”

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of standard face-to-face Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST) linked brief intervention (F-ASSIST) with mobile telephone-administered ASSIST linked brief intervention (T-ASSIST) for alcohol use cessation in a Nigerian clinical population. Methods: Participants (787), 18 years and above were consecutively randomized into either a T-ASSIST or F-ASSIST brief Intervention. Participants in the F-ASSIST group received face-to-face brief Intervention (standard care) at baseline and at 3 months. Participants in the T-ASSIST group received faceto-face intervention at baseline and at 3 months but in addition received weekly mobile telephone-delivered short message service (SMS) aimed at encouraging abstinence during study period. Main outcome measures were significant reduction in mean ASSIST score and percentage abstinence at 6 months. Analysis was carried out by Chi square statistics and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using SPSS (16.0). Results: The ANCOVA was significant, F (2,761) = 77.2, p < 0.001. Post hoc tests showed the adjusted means of the three groups to be significantly different. The effect sizes for the mean differences were 0.836, 0.601 and 0.227 respectively. Highest proportion of abstainers at 6 months was in the T-ASSIST group p < 0.001. Binary regression analysis shows that respondents in the F-ASSIST group were significantly less likely to be abstainers compared with the telephone based intervention OR = 0.18, 95% CI (0.09-0.37). Conclusion: A telephone-based programme offers superiority compared with a strict face to face alcohol cessation program because it enhances treatment adherence.

“…The literature further notes similar trends in regard to other harmful behaviors. For example, binge drinking prevalence has been noted to be significantly lower among the elderly and those who are married (with no children) [39], with consistently lower rates noted among females [33, 39]. Higher odds for binge drinking were noted among those with higher socioeconomic status [33].…”

Objective. The influence of religion, acculturation, and incarceration on substance abuse has been studied, though predominantly among adolescents. Little research exists on how such factors influence substance use among Hispanic adults. The objective of this study was to assess key determinants of substance use among Hispanic adults. Methods. Public access 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health was utilized. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted while accounting for complex survey design to obtain population-weighted estimates. Receiver operator curve analysis was used to evaluate the relative contribution of each variable. Results. Importance of religious influence in life and Spanish language interview were associated with lower odds of substance use, while history of incarceration increased the likelihood of substance use among Hispanic adults. Other factors associated with lower odds were increasing age, being female, and currently married. Other factors associated with increased odds were high school graduate and some college in addition to living above the 200% federal poverty level. Discussion. Results from this study add to the limited body of the literature on determinants of substance use among Hispanic adults. Health education measures should target acculturated Hispanic adults and those with incarceration history to reduce substance use.

“…The pattern of alcohol consumption varies by race and ethnicity in the United States, reflecting diverse situational norms for drinking and historical legacies that manifest in drinking behavior (Zapolski et al., ). A range of samples consistently demonstrates that Whites are less likely to abstain from drinking (Kerr et al., ; Zapolski et al., ) and are more likely to binge drink (Banta et al., ; Chartier and Caetano, ) compared to Blacks and, depending on the ethnic subgroup, Hispanics (Kanny et al., ; Serdula et al., ). However, Blacks and Hispanics have a heavier burden of some consequences of alcohol use, including unemployment, medical, and social consequences relative to Whites (Caetano et al., ; Chartier and Caetano, ; Sloan et al., ).…”

Background Neighborhood context is associated with binge drinking and has significant health, societal, and economic costs. Both binge drinking and neighborhood context vary by race and ethnicity. We examined the relations between neighborhood characteristics —neighborhood norms that are accepting of drunkeness, collective efficacy, and physical disorder — and binge drinking, with a focus on examining race and ethnic-specific relationships. Methods Respondent data were collected through 2005 random digit-dial-telephone survey for a representative sample of New York City residents; neighborhood data were based on the 2005 New York City Housing and Vacancy Survey. Participants were 1,415 past year drinkers; Whites (n = 877), Blacks (n = 292) and Hispanics (n =246). Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) were used to estimate population average models. Results For the overall sample, neighborhood norms that were more accepting of drunkenness were associated with greater binge drinking (OR = 1.22; 95% CI = 1.09, 1.37); collective efficacy and physical disorder were not significant. However, when examining this by race/ethnicity, greater collective efficacy (OR = 0.75; 95% CI = 0.62, 0.91) and greater physical disorder (OR = 0.76; 95% CI = 0.62, 0.93) were associated with less binge drinking for Whites only. Neighborhood norms that were more accepting of drunkenness were associated with binge drinking among Whites (OR = 1.20; 95% CI = 1.05, 1.38) and, while not significant (perhaps due to power), the associations were similar for Hispanics (OR = 1.18; 95% CI = 0.83, 1.68) and slightly lower for Blacks (OR = 1.11; 95% CI = 0.67, 1.84). Conclusions Overall, results suggest that neighborhood characteristics and binge drinking are shaped, in part, by factors that vary across race/ethnicity. Thus, disaggregating data by race/ethnicity is important in understanding binge drinking behaviors.
