Exploring The Impact of Bicultural Identity Integration on Alcohol Use Through Familism
These findings suggest that, while higher BII is associated with higher familism, the latter may contribute to increased alcohol use due to the stressors associated with familial obligations. This study underscores the complexity of cultural integration and its impact on health behaviors in Hispanic/Latinx emerging adults, highlighting the need for interventions that address both cultural and familial dynamics.
