“…This study is consistent with previous research in fi nding that Native American youths were more likely than White youths to have consumed alcohol in their lifetime and in the past 30 days, and to report heavy episodic drinking (e.g., Bachman et al, 1991;Friese and Grube, 2008;Spear et al, 2005). Retail alcohol-outlet density was not signifi cantly related to drinking in any of the analyses.…”

“…Rather, our data show that the Native American youths in our sample do not have the same access to alcohol at home as do White youths. A similar pattern was found in our previous study of Native American and White youths in Wisconsin (Friese and Grube, 2008). It may be that Native American parents are more proactive about preventing youth access to alcohol in the home.…”

“…One study found that African American, Hispanic/Latino(a), Asian, and Native American youths were less likely to obtain alcohol from social sources than their White counterparts (Harrison et al, 2000). Another study conducted in Wisconsin found that youths accessed alcohol primarily through social sources, but the specifi c social sources differed for Native American and White youths (Friese and Grube, 2008). Native American youths were more likely to have obtained alcohol from an adult or from someone younger than age 21 than were White youths, whereas White youths were more likely to have obtained alcohol from their parents.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: We investigated drinking behavior and sources of alcohol among Native American and White youths, as well as how underage drinking behavior and sources of alcohol may be related to environmental factors. Method: Survey data from a sample of 18,916 youths (8th, 10th, and 12th grades) from Montana were analyzed using hierarchical linear modeling. Survey data were supplemented with county-level economic and census data. Results: Native American youths were more likely than White youths to report drinking and heavy episodic drinking and initiate drinking at a younger age. Native Americans were less likely than Whites to get alcohol from home or from someone younger than age 21 but were more likely to get it from other social sources or through theft from a store. Living in a county with more Native Americans was inversely related to access to alcohol for both White and Native American youths, as well as reduced lifetime, 30-day, and heavy episodic drinking. Living in a county with more single-parent households was positively related to lifetime drinking, 30-day drinking, heavy episodic drinking, and increased access to alcohol through someone younger than age 21 or a stranger. Median income was negatively related to lifetime drinking and ease of access to alcohol and was positively related to accessing alcohol from home without permission, theft, or purchase with a fake ID.

“…Predictors of consistent alcohol use included alcohol expectancies, sensation seeking, other risky behaviors, and parental problems with alcohol. Friese and Grube (2009) examined direct community-level influences and reported that compared with Whites, NA youth drinkers were twice as likely to have gotten alcohol from an adult and from someone under age 21, and less likely to have obtained alcohol from their parents. Results by Friese and colleagues (2015) indicate that higher drinking among NA youth may be accounted for by lower school involvement, weaker neighborhood antidrug norms, greater neighborhood disorganization, and lower levels of police enforcement.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: This study examined social-and individuallevel factors associated with alcohol use among young women and tested whether differences exist between Native American and non-Native young women. Method: School-based surveys were conducted among 952 young women (ages 14-19) attending four high schools within the tribal jurisdictional service area of the Cherokee Nation in northeastern Oklahoma. Structural equation modeling using Mplus was used to assess the direct and indirect effects of social-and individual-level factors on subsequent alcohol use among Native and non-Native young women. Results: We found no differences in the level of risk and protective factors among Native and non-Native young women. Among Native and non-Native young women, alcohol access, parental communication, and best friends' alcohol use had statistically significant direct and/or indirect effects on alcohol use. Indirect effects were mediated through alcohol expectancies and norms. A history of alcohol problems by an adult in the household and depression were not retained as independent risk factors in either model. Conclusions: We found more similarities than differences in level of and relations to alcohol use among social and individual risk and protective factors between Native American and non-Native young women from northeastern Oklahoma. The results provide support for universal prevention strategies, suggesting the importance of increasing perceptions that it is difficult to obtain alcohol and increasing parent-child communication.
