A study of attitudes and experiences relating to alcohol use in a community of family farmers from Southern India.
Problematic drinking is found to be common among Indian farmers. This study aims to improve our understanding of the causes, consequences, and culture surrounding drinking in Indian farming communities. 36 semi-structured interviews with male and female farmers were thematically analyzed. Problematic drinking in male farmers was found to significantly impact farmer's relationships, work, finances, and health, and to be related to spousal abuse and neglect. Drinking to cope with mental and physical pain was common, and stigma around drinking appears to be a barrier to social support. Implications for future research and treatment efforts for Indian farmers are discussed.
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.
