ABSTRACT
Data from the southwestern United States sample of the Hispanic Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were employed to compare the patterns of alcohol use among Mexican American mothers and children in female-headed households with use patterns among mothers and children in couple-headed households. Single female heads of household drank more alcoholic beverages on more days than females from dual-headed households. As a whole, the children of single heads of household still living at home did not demonstrate significantly different drinking patterns from their dual-headed household counterparts. While male children of single-headed households drank more days and total drinks than their dual-headed household counterparts, female children of dual-headed households drank more days and total drinks than female children from single-headed households.
