| مستخلص: | Alcohol consumption among college students continues to be a significant public health concern for colleges and universities across the country. However, a preponderance of research primarily included White samples from predominantly white institutions. Unsurprisingly, this practice limits what is known regarding alcohol consumption among African American male college students on historically Black campuses. Notably, as a "rite of passages" from childhood to adulthood, early exposure to alcohol consumption has been viewed as a cultural norm in African American families. The negative consequences associated with alcohol abuse, early exposure to alcohol, and the prevalence of problem drinking among college students in general, mandated further research facilitating a better understanding of this public health concern on historically Black campuses. This study examined alcohol use among African American male college students, investigating relationships between demographics and socio-cultural factors as predictors of alcohol consumption among African American male college students who drink. A convenience sample of 94 students was used. A multiple regression was conducted to test whether demographics and socio-cultural factors were predictors of alcohol consumption. Findings from this study will advance social work research and stimulate discussions about substance abuse disparities among African American male college students who consume alcohol. Furthermore, this research highlights the public health issue, prompting the development of prevention and intervention programs aimed at addressing the social problem of alcohol consumption among African American male college students at historically Black universities. |
