Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Transgender (trans) adults are identified as an at-risk group for problem alcohol use. Descriptive empirical data examining alcohol behaviors among trans adults is limited. The present study investigates alcohol behaviors - quantity, frequency, alcohol-related problems, and drinking to cope motives - across sex assigned at birth, gender expression, and gender identity subgroups within a sample of trans adults. METHOD:A total of 317 trans participants were recruited to complete a cross-sectional battery of online measures assessing alcohol use behaviors, alcohol-related problems, and drinking to cope. Gender identity was assessed through two methods: (1) an open-ended question in which participants wrote-in their primary gender identity; and (2) participants rated the extent to which they identified with 14 gender identity categories. RESULTS:This sample had high rates of alcohol use, alcohol-related problems, and drinking to cope motives relative to the general population. Significant and meaningful differences in drinking frequency, alcohol-related problems and drinking motives were found according to gender expression, but not sex assigned at birth or gender identity. CONCLUSIONS:Future work should examine alcohol behaviors among trans individuals, including investigation of predictors and causal pathways, to inform prevention and intervention work aimed at reducing trans people's risk for alcohol-related problems.
