Abstract

Alcohol-related consequences remain a major public health issue, especially for emerging adults. Additionally, experiences of discrimination can have a deleterious impact on an individuals' drinking habits and mental health, especially when an individual is discriminated against for multiple, intersecting aspects of their identity. For example, experiencing multiple forms of discrimination has been linked to anxiety, depression, and alcohol-related consequences. The purpose of this study was to investigate if experiences of multiple discrimination are associated with alcohol-related consequences and if a pathway exists between multiple discrimination, anxiety and depression coping motives, and alcohol-related consequences. Participants (N = 399; 54.9% female, 48.1% White) were emerging adults who completed a survey on Prolific Academic, including questionnaires on number of drinks per week, alcohol-related consequences, experiences of perceived discrimination, depression and anxiety, and substance use coping motives. Results supported a significant association between multiple forms of discrimination and alcohol consequences. Serial mediation analyses supported an indirect effect of multiple forms of discrimination on alcohol-related consequences through both depression and depression coping motives, and anxiety and anxiety coping motives. Overall, the results of this study build upon previous research on the association between coping motives and alcohol consequences, demonstrate the depth of the impact of experiencing discrimination, and highlight the need for research to consider discrimination from an intersectional lens.

多重歧视,抑郁和焦虑的应对动机,以及酒精相关的后果。
与酒精有关的后果仍然是一个主要的公共卫生问题,特别是对刚成年的人来说。此外,歧视的经历可能对个人的饮酒习惯和心理健康产生有害影响,特别是当一个人因其身份的多个交叉方面而受到歧视时。例如,遭受多种形式的歧视与焦虑、抑郁和与酒精有关的后果有关。本研究的目的是探讨多重歧视的经历是否与酒精相关后果有关,以及多重歧视、焦虑和抑郁应对动机与酒精相关后果之间是否存在一条途径。参与者(N = 399; 54.9%女性,48.1%白人)是刚成年的人,他们完成了一项多产学术调查,包括每周饮酒次数、酒精相关后果、感知歧视经历、抑郁和焦虑以及物质使用应对动机的问卷调查。结果支持多种形式的歧视与酒精后果之间的显著关联。系列中介分析支持多种形式的歧视通过抑郁和抑郁应对动机以及焦虑和焦虑应对动机对酒精相关后果的间接影响。总的来说,本研究的结果建立在先前关于应对动机和酒精后果之间关系的研究的基础上,展示了经历歧视的影响的深度,并强调了从交叉角度考虑歧视的研究的必要性。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA,版权所有)。
