“…This compounded disadvantage is thought to contribute to numerous adverse health outcomes, such as substance use (Glass et al 2017). The intersection of these key factors related to substance use may be even more problematic for some racial and ethnic minority members living in rural areas (Boyd et al 2007;Kramer et al 2009) and create an accumulation of stressors that may exacerbate vulnerabilities to engaging in substance use (Boyd et al 2007). Living in nonmetropolitan environments may put racial and ethnic minority members at risk for using certain substances.…”

Substance abuse is a pervasive problem across the globe, impacting the health and well-being of those who abuse alcohol and substances and their family members. While this problem affects individuals across numerous demographic factors (e.g., gender, race and ethnicity, or socioeconomic status), there are different patterns and types of substance abuse in urban and rural areas. This chapter focuses on the unique aspects of alcohol and substance abuse in rural, frontier, and remote areas and examines health disparities and racial and ethnic differences in substance abuse. In addition, this chapter discusses special challenges in providing prevention and intervention services to the people who live in rural and remote areas of the world and the roles of psychologists in providing this care.

“…In general, these studies have suggested that race and ethnicity matters when examining the association between coping strategies and substance use (e.g, Aldridge-Gerry et al, 2011). For example, one study found that avoidant coping strategies (e.g., escape, denial) and emotion-focused coping strategies are positively associated with alcohol use disorders among rural African-American women (Boyd et al, 2007), while another found that avoidant coping strategies were negatively associated with binge drinking and marijuana use among Asian-American males (Liu and Iwamoto, 2007). Richman and colleagues (2011) also examined race/ethnic differences in coping strategies and their association with another substance use behavior—problem drinking.…”

The association between stress exposure and substance use has been the subject of numerous studies. However, no prior study has explored the role of coping strategies in moderating the stress-substance use association for American Indian adolescents. Our preliminary study of coping strategies and substance use among a sample (n=568) of rural American Indian and white adolescents revealed a number of similarities across both groups, but also some important differences. Results of logistic regression analyses revealed that the relationship between an avoidant coping strategy and marijuana use differed for whites and American Indians. Study limitations and future research directions are discussed.

“…In a qualitative study of 13 midlife and older lesbian women in recovery from alcohol dependence, Pettinato (2008) found that women reported that they used alcohol to “disconnect” from the discomfort associated with “coming out” as a lesbian. In rural African American women, Boyd, Baliko, Cox, and Tavakoli (2007) found that those with alcohol dependence had fewer uplifting events, higher levels of emotion-focused coping, and more positive beliefs about the effects of alcohol than those without alcohol dependence. In a sample of 173 ( n = 80 women) Mexican immigrant farmworkers, Loury and Kulbok (2007) found that although men were more likely to be current drinkers than women, occupational and economic stress and preimmigration alcohol use predicted the current level of alcohol use for both men and women.…”

In this article, the authors review the nursing empirical literature on alcohol and women's health published over the past 5 years (2005-2010). A total of 36 data-based articles authored by nurse investigators met eligibility criteria and were included in this review. Most were single studies by individual nurse investigators; few studies reflected ongoing programs of research related to alcohol and women's health. Studies were categorized into four main groups, including (a) determinants of alcohol use and alcohol problems; (b) patterns of use, assessment of alcohol use, and comorbidity; (c) consequences of alcohol use; and (d) the effects of treatment or specific interventions and the contributions of nursing research to the knowledge base of each group are summarized. The authors then propose a research agenda for nursing that addresses the most pressing issues related to alcohol use and alcohol problems in women.
