摘要：
This study examined the risk for alcoholism,
diabetes, and depression (triADD) in American Indian/
Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations in the U.S. Using the
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, a series of
descriptive statistics and regression models were used to
examine the interrelationships among these disorders
in AI/AN populations. Despite a small sample size,
results indicate that AI/ANs are at elevated risk for the
individual and combined presence of triADD (OR=12.5)
when compared to the White population. These
fi ndings indicate the need for further investigation and
prevention focused on eff ective, culturally appropriate
interventions with these populations.
