Motives for Getting Tattooed and the Connections to Well-Being Among Tattoo Recipients
Motives to play drinking games and their unique associations with drinking game behaviors and consequences in a national sample of university students in the United States
Objective: Playing drinking games (DGs) is a common behavior among university students, which is concerning given that DG participation is related to more alcohol use/consequences. People’s motivations for playing DGs are associated with certain DG behavior patterns and negative consequences. However, few studies have accounted for general drinking motives and other key covariates when examining the unique associations between DG-specific motivat…
College stress, racial discrimination, and alcohol use outcomes among queer college students of color
Exploring The Impact of Bicultural Identity Integration on Alcohol Use Through Familism
BACKGROUND: Alcohol use is prevalent within Hispanic/Latinx U.S. emerging adults. Bicultural identity integration (BII) and familism, two salient sociocultural factors in Hispanic/Latinx communities, have complex associations with alcohol use that vary based on the contributions of cultural identities and family obligations. This study assesses the indirect pathway linking BII to alcohol use through familism among Hispanic/Latinx U.S. college stu…
Demographic Correlates Associated with Blackout Rage Gallon (Borg) Drinking Knowledge and Participation Among College Students
Objective An emergent and concerning alcohol use trend among college students is the consumption of a "blackout rage gallon" (BORG)—a gallon jug filled with a mixture of alcohol (often vodka), caffeinated beverages, water, and flavor enhancers. The aim of this exploratory study was two-fold: (1) to describe U.S. college students’ direct and indirect experience with BORG drinking and (2) to identify demographic factors that correlate with BORG con…
A motivational framework to connect traditional feminine gender roles to alcohol use and consequences among Latina young adults in the United States
Traditional feminine gender roles (TFGRs) may be important sociocultural predictors of drinking among U.S. Latinas; however, examining the explanatory role of drinking motives will improve current understanding of the connection between TFGRs and alcohol use. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the indirect pathways between four subscales of TFGRs, four subscales of drinking motives, and alcohol outcomes among Latina young adults. A l…
Using Latent Class Analysis to Characterize Sickness Signaling in Relation to Familism and Public and Private Religiosity in a Stratified US Sample
BACKGROUND: In response to contracting an infection, individuals usually display a suite of external signs (including sickness behavior) as an outward indication of illness. This context-dependent phenomenon seems to weigh the benefits and costs of eliciting sympathy by indicating sickness versus hiding signs of illness to avoid exposing others to potential infection. In a dynamically social species like humans, non-kin may be as likely to respon…
A replication and extension of the factor structure of the Masculine Drinking Norms Measure (MDNM) and associations with drinking behaviors in a multisite sample of college men
Gender-specific norms are learned, which can influence social norms, attitudes, and behaviors in specific situations. For example, men who conform to certain masculine norms/ideals may express their masculinity by drinking alcohol. Recent research indicates that endorsement of alcohol-specific masculine norms is mixed when predicting men's risk for heavy consumption and adverse alcohol-related outcomes. Using a large, college sample of self-ident…
The role of sociocultural factors on alcohol self-efficacy and protective drinking behaviors among Hispanic/Latinx young adults
Findings showcase the risk and protective effects of various sociocultural factors on drinking behaviors among young adults. PBS self-efficacy was found to have robust protective effects against alcohol use severity. Future research should continue to investigate these sociocultural and behavioral factors in order to develop efforts to mitigate hazardous alcohol use among Hispanic/Latinx young adult drinkers
Contextualizing linguistic acculturation and alcohol use among Hispanic college students in the social digital environment
The link between SDLA and alcohol engagement is nuanced. This study's findings may be partially explained by acculturative stress in the context of social digital engagement, warranting further exploration. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved)
Smoking Social Norms Among Spanish-Speaking Mexican-Origin Persons Who Smoke
In the United States, smoking rates increase with greater acculturation among Mexican-origin women, but not among men. Conversely, greater acculturation is associated with higher likelihood of quitting among Mexican-origin men who smoke, but not among women who smoke. Long-standing speculation is that adoption of smoking social norms in the U.S. that are less restrictive for women and more restrictive for men compared to smoking social norms in M…
Conformity to masculine norms and its association with drinking behaviors and alcohol-related consequences among adult men: A meta-analysis
Pathways between Adverse Change in Employment and Alcohol Use among U.S. Women during a Global Pandemic: The Moderating Role of Conformity to Masculine Norms
BACKGROUND: This study examined changes in reported alcohol use among women during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic and the relations to adverse changes in employment (e.g. job loss, furlough, reduced pay). Further, this study assessed how the relation between changes in alcohol use and experiencing an adverse change in employment was moderated by four theoretically relevant dimensions of conformity to masculine norms (CMNI, i.e. risk-ta…
Masculine drinking norms and alcohol use in a national sample of NCAA male student-athletes
A move from assessing general masculine norms toward alcohol-specific masculine norms can further researchers' and practitioners' knowledge of masculine norms and their link to drinking behaviors, and enhance the application of masculine norms in alcohol intervention and prevention programs
Major Depression in Postpartum Women during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Can Social Support Buffer Psychosocial Risks and Substance Use
Rates of mood disorders and substance use increased during the COVID-19 pandemic for postpartum women. The present study's aims were to: (1) examine the prevalence of major depressive disorder (MDD) in postpartum women during the COVID-19 pandemic, and (2) evaluate whether social support can buffer the associations between MDD, psychosocial factors (perceived stress, generalized anxiety, and intimate partner violence) and substance use (alcohol a…
The great resignation in higher education: An occupational health approach to understanding intentions-to-quit for faculty in higher education
Relevance of Athlete-Specific Psychosocial Factors in High School Student-Athlete Alcohol Consumption
Background: Research suggests that adolescent student-athletes are at heightened risk for alcohol consumption. The identification of unique, modifiable risk factors for alcohol use in this population is needed. Purpose/Objectives: Building on previous work highlighting the importance of each of athlete-specific drinking motives and alcohol expectancies, this study investigated whether athlete-specific psychosocial predictors optimize our ability …
Domains matter: A prospective investigation of traditional feminine gender roles and alcohol use among Latinas
Scholars suggest traditional feminine gender roles (TFGRs) influence alcohol use among U.S. Latinas, but relevant literature is limited. This two-wave study examined how multi-dimensional internal (i.e., beliefs) and external (i.e., practices) TFGR processes related to drinking among college-bound Latina emerging adults across time. TFGRs characterized by virtue predicted less alcohol engagement, while some TFGR dimensions (e.g., subordinate) pre…
A latent profile analysis of the link between sociocultural factors and health-related risk-taking among U.S. adults
By examining potentially modifiable factors related to individuals' inclinations to engage in health protective behaviors, this study is an important step toward improving current health behavior interventions among U.S. adults
Linking alcohol-specific masculine norms and drinking behavior among Latino men
A robust literature suggests men typically engage in more general and heavy alcohol use than women, and that many health disparities related to drinking are more prevalent among Latino men as compared to non-Latino White men. Researchers posit that adherence to masculine gender role scripts may be one reason men choose to drink alcohol. To date, research linking masculinity to drinking among Latinos has been mixed and has used broad measures for …
Pregaming among Latina/o emerging adults: Do acculturation and gender matter
Among ethnic minority groups, Latina/o emerging adults are most likely to engage in pregaming, a risky drinking practice. This study examined how U.S. acculturation and enculturation are associated with pregaming and the extent to which gender moderates this relation in a sample of 312 Latina/o emerging adults (18 - 25 years of age). Results indicated that men consumed more alcohol when pregaming than women, but there were no gender differences i…
The combined relations of gender, enculturation, and depressive symptoms with health risk behaviors in Mexican-Americans: A moderated mediation analysis
Objectives: The present study investigated the relationships of enculturation and depressive symptoms with health risk behavior engagement in Mexican-American college students and examined how these relationships differed by gender. Previous research has noted consistent gender differences in health risk behavior (e.g. alcohol use, substance use, and risky sexual behavior) among Latina/os, and emphasized the role of U.S. acculturation in this dif…
