Abstract
Latinx residents in New York City experience greater disparities in alcohol use behaviors, chronic liver disease mortality, and other health and legal consequences from high-risk alcohol use compared to non-Latinx White residents. As media-based advertising of alcohol can influence health behaviors, this study aimed to take an "upstream" approach by analyzing rates of alcohol advertising across primetime English- and Spanish-language television networks and radio station broadcasting in New York City during September 7-27, 2022. A systematic content analysis of a randomly drawn, two-week composite sample of primetime YouTube television networks and radio stations revealed significantly higher alcohol advertising rates per hour on Spanish- than English-language media (rate difference across television networks = 4.91, 95% CI = 3.96, 5.85, p < 0.05; rate difference across radio stations = 1.86; 95% CI = 1.17, 2.55, p < 0.05). Findings underscore disparities in alcohol advertising across diverse media types, disadvantaging consumers of Spanish-language media. Stronger regulation and enforcement of alcohol marketing laws are needed to curb Latinx health inequities.
与非拉丁裔白人居民相比,纽约市的拉丁裔居民在酒精使用行为、慢性肝病死亡率以及其他由高风险酒精使用引起的健康和法律后果方面存在更大的差异。由于基于媒体的酒精广告会影响健康行为,本研究旨在采取“上游”方法,通过分析2022年9月7日至27日期间纽约市黄金时段英语和西班牙语电视网络和广播电台播放的酒精广告率。一项随机抽取的为期两周的YouTube黄金时段电视网络和广播电台的综合样本的系统内容分析显示,西班牙语媒体每小时的酒精广告率明显高于英语媒体(电视网络之间的比率差异= 4.91,95% CI = 3.96, 5.85, p
