“…Early European colonists, explorers, and adventurers had few societal restrictions or standards set for "drinking-related" behaviors. Alcohol was used freely and frequently, and was often a part of the daily diet (Winkler, 1968). As America began to take on a more formal structure (circa 1776), the attitudes toward drinking, at least in the more settled areas, began to change.…”

“…As America began to take on a more formal structure (circa 1776), the attitudes toward drinking, at least in the more settled areas, began to change. Temperance movements developed, and drunkenness, especially Indian drunkenness, came under more scrutiny (Winkler, 1968). It is ironic that as one section of colonial America was condemning the Indian people for their seeming inability to "handle" a substance foreign to their culture, another was actively engaged in a very lucrative trade with the same substance.…”

The influence of self-efficacy (general and substance use) on alcohol use among 114 American Indian and Native Alaskan adults was examined. Analysis of variance was performed to assess differences between alcohol use groups (nonuse, low use, and medium-high use). Low general self-efficacy (GSE) was associated with higher alcohol use. High substance use self-efficacy (SSE) was associated with higher alcohol use. Moreover, low GSE was associated with higher SSE. Results indicate that alcohol use may be in response to feelings of powerlessness within one's life and may be sustained by perceived feelings of control over use. The study suggests that the concept of self-efficacy appears to relate to empowerment issues and, as such, would have important applications for use with minority individuals.

“…This increased consumption (among other things), according to Winkler (1968: 413), led many to believe that America was facing a real "drinking problem" (also see Howland and Howland, 1982;Lender and Martin, 1982), a "problem" which required "moral reform" as a solution (Gusfield, 1955 and1963; also see Winkler, 1968;Howland and Howland, 1982;Lender and Martin, 1982).…”

for their dedicated commitment to getting this thesis done. Dr. Joseph Jones as chairperson is especially thanked for his considerable patience, support and assistance with every aspect of this endeavor including his commitment to reteach me the English language. Special thanks is also extended to Dr. Kathryn Farr for her willingness to go beyond the call of duty in helping to support me in meeting some very important deadlines. Without this help, I know this thesis would not have been completed. My gratitude is also extended to Dr. Lee Haggerty who although not on my committee responded as if nothing was more important than helping me not only complete the methodological procedures needed for this thesis, but to understand these procedures. Such dedication oftentimes goes unnoticed; I wish Dr. Haggerty to know it did not. To Lynn Worman, friend and confidant, I express my special appreciation for not only willingly opening up her home to me in order
