abstract="Hazardous alcohol use among Hispanics makes for a critical public health issue that warrants empirical examination. Whereas research shows positive associations between alcohol-related outcomes and <i>acculturation</i>, it is unclear how <i>enculturation</i> and <i>acculturation</i> x <i>enculturation</i> are linked to alcohol use. Hispanic American undergraduate and graduate students (<i>N</i> = 348, 61.8% women, <i>M</i><sub>age</sub> = 21.82, 83.3% undergraduates) completed questionnaires assessing their levels of <i>acculturation</i>, <i>enculturation</i>, and alcohol use. <i>Enculturation</i> was negatively associated with social drinking-related consequences. <i>Acculturation</i> was positively associated with alcohol consumption, and <i>enculturation</i> buffered this association. <br><br>FINDINGS highlight the utility of considering acculturation profiles in understanding Hispanic alcohol use.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
