Abstract

A family history of substance problems is a well-known risk factor for substance use and use disorders; however, much of this research has been conducted in studies with predominantly White subjects. The aim of this study was to examine the associations between family history density of substance problems and drug use, risk for drug use disorder, and prescription drug misuse in a sample of African American adults. Results indicate that family history density of substance problems increased the risk for all drug outcomes in the full sample. However, when subgroup analyses by gender were conducted, family history was not a risk factor among men for prescription drug misuse.

非裔美国人的药物问题家族史：药物使用、药物使用障碍和处方药滥用的关联。

众所周知，有药物问题的家族史是导致药物使用和使用障碍的一个风险因素；然而，这方面的大部分研究都是针对以白人为主的受试者进行的。本研究旨在研究非裔美国成年人样本中，药物问题家族史密度与药物使用、药物使用障碍风险和处方药滥用之间的关联。结果表明，在全部样本中，药物问题家族史密度增加了所有药物结果的风险。然而，在按性别进行分组分析时，家庭病史并不是男性滥用处方药的风险因素。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse presents rigorous new studies and research on ethnicity and cultural variation in alcohol, tobacco, licit and illicit forms of substance use and abuse. The research is drawn from many disciplines and interdisciplinary areas in the social and behavioral sciences, public health, and helping professions. The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse is an international forum for identification of emergent and culturally diverse substance use and abuse trends, and the implementation of culturally competent strategies in harm reduction, individual, group, and family treatment of substance abuse. The Journal systematically investigates the beliefs, attitudes, and values of substance abusers, searching for the answers to the origins of drug use and abuse for different ethnic groups. The Journal publishes research papers, review papers, policy commentaries, and conference proceedings. The Journal welcomes submissions from across the globe, and strives to ensure efficient review and publication outcomes.
