Objective:
Investigate the demographic, psychosocial, and Reasoned Action Approach (RAA) factors influencing sexual minority undergraduate college students' intentions to seek alcohol-related help.
Participants:
A non-probability sample of sexual minority college students throughout the U.S. (N = 253).
Methods:
Participants completed an online cross-sectional survey of psychosocial and RAA scales. A hierarchical linear regression tested associations with intentions to seek alcohol related-help.
Results:
Racial/ethnic minority students reported lower intentions to seek help than Non-Hispanic White students. Greater childhood adversity was associated with higher help-seeking intentions, whereas more hazardous drinking was associated with lower intentions. Regarding the RAA, more favorable attitudes, stronger norms, and greater autonomy were associated with higher intentions.
Conclusions:
There is a need for alcohol screening and brief interventions that integrate racial and sexual minority cultural competency. Universities should implement behavioral health screenings to identify hazardous drinking and incorporate RAA constructs into social marketing campaigns to promote alcohol and other behavioral health help seeking.
