Also: http://www.jsad.com/jsad/article/The_Relation_between_Heavy_Alcohol_Use_and_Bar_Patronage_A_Latent_Growth_M/339.html Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Center of Alcohol Studies, Rutgers University Keyword(s): Addiction; Alcohol Use; Gender Differences; Hispanics; Marital Status; Modeling; Modeling, Growth Curve/Latent Trajectory Analysis; Racial Differences; Substance Use Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Data drawn from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth on 3,071 Ss age 21+ (38% female, 18% black, 13% Hispanic, ∧ 69% Caucasian) were used to estimate models for heavy alcohol use and bar patronage, 1982-1984. Random effects latent growth models indicate that both heavy alcohol use and bar patronage had downward growth trajectories over time, with males reporting higher levels of both at initial interview and smaller decreases over time. Bar patronage tended to encourage heavy alcohol use, particularly among singles & males. Compared to Caucasians, Hispanics reported lower levels of bar patronage & blacks reported lower levels of both heavy alcohol use & bar patronage. 2 Tables, 4 Figures, 34 References.
