- W57184293 abstract "A survey of alcohol use patterns was conducted among Mexican American and Anglo American college students. Significant differences were found in relation to whether or not students drank, with whom they drank, how frequently, where, and what they drank compared to the students' ethnicity and their sex. Ethnicityhad the strongest influence on whether or not students drank, what they drank and how frequently they drank. A survey of alcohol use was conducted at Pan American University, a four-year state supported institution located in the Lower Rio Grande '1 Valley of Texas. The object of the survey was to identify social factors which create differences in the consumption of alcoholic beverages J among Anglo American and Mexican American college students. Previous studies on alcohol use amongst college students were of some use in providing a baseline for comparison of Pan American University student behavior, however, certain weaknesses were apparent in the literature that made such comparisons less complete than would be optimally desirable. Straus and Bacon's (1953) survey of 17,000 college students provides one of the most commonly cited sources of baseline data for subsequent studies on alcohol use amongst college students. However, their report ignores the importance of ethnicity as a variable in determining drinking behavior, specifically the drinking behavior of Spanish surnamed students, thereby reducing the utility of the work as a comparative baseline for this study. The Straus and Bacon data has subsequently been supplanted by more recent publications such as Hanson, 1974; Kuder and Madsen, 1:976; Kraft, 1976; Donovan, 1977; and Kopplin etal., 1977. Most of the study i groups associated with these articles were either relatively homogei neous, the question of ethnicity was ignored, or the ethnic groups differed from the ones reported here. One of the few pertinent reports commenting on ethnic differences in drinking among college students is found in Marden and Kolodner (1977). Referring to Spanish Americans in particular, the authors state that this group has alcohol use patterns that are similar to whites, although their levels of consumption may be somewhat less (Marden and Kolodner, 1977:21). The suggested lower levels of alcohol consumption among Mexican Americans are supported by the evidence detailed in this article, however, the ADOLESCENCE, Vol. XVII No. 66, Summer 1982 Libra Publishers, Inc., 391 Willets Rd., Roslyn Hts., N.Y. 11577 similarity in usage patterns is not borne out by the data, nor by another analysis of the literature on drinking in Spanish-speaking populations (see Trotter and Chavira, 1977). In contrast to the dearth of information on ethnic differentials in drinking behavior, recent studies of drinking behavior among college students have been giving increasingly detailed information on the potential differentials in drinking behavior reported by male and female students. Keller's study (1974) is of special interest in this area, since it is based on a national sample. Keller's report shows an increase in the proportion of students drinking at each age level for both males and females. It also documents a decrease in the differential between the proportions of male and female drinkers over the past decade. The author's study, without comparable longitudinal data to work with, cannot refute or support these trends among Pan American University students. However, the evidence presented in the following sections suggest that if the latter trend, a reduction in sexual drinking differentials, is being followed, it is primarily among the Anglo American . students not th~ Mexican American students. And it is being followed to a lesser degree for the Anglos than for the nation as a whole. Specific comparisons with previous studies can be found in the data sections ." @default.
