Social Anxiety and Drinking Behaviors: A Cross-Comparison Analysis of Hispanic Students in Hispanic-serving Institutions Versus Predominantly White Institutions
This study investigates social anxiety and drinking behaviors among 815 Hispanic students across Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) and Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs). Results highlight a significant relationship between social anxiety and increased drinking behaviors but were less for those in HSIs. Students at HSIs with more social anxiety also reported lower drinking consequences when compared to those at PWIs.
