Background.
It has been widely documented that males were more likely to drinking alcohol and have alcohol use disorders (AUD).
The degrees of the male-female differences in drinking and AUD have varied across countries.
The reasons behind these variations have not been fully understood.
The current study compared the estimated male-female differences across US-born and foreign-born Latino and Asian Americans with respect to alcohol drinking behavior and AUD.
Method.
Data come from the National Latino and Asian American Study (NLAAS), a national household survey of adults with Latinos and Asian decent in the United States.
Male-female differences were estimated for drinking behavior and AUD among drinkers for US-born and foreign-born individuals, respectively.
Zero-inflated Poisson regressions were utilized to estimate male-female differences in the number of AUD clinical features once it occurs.
Results.
Larger male-female differences were found for foreign-born individuals as compared to US-born individuals, especially the occurrence of AUD among drinkers.
Once AUD clinical feature occurs, there was no male-female difference for foreign-born individuals, while there was a males excess in the number of clinical features for US-born individuals.
Conclusion.
Results from this study supports the importance of sociocultural influence in drinking and AUD.
Implications for prevention and intervention programs were discussed.
