Credits: 1 CEU Hours

Excessive alcohol use is a significant health concern and has been associated with legal and workplace ramifications. Past literature suggests that alcohol consumption is common among military service members and largely integrated into military culture. Knowledge surrounding perceived network support and alcohol consumption among active-duty U.S. military personnel is limited, specifically among sexual minorities (SM). The study sought to determine the correlates of hazardous alcohol consumption and whether perceived network support moderated the relationship between sexual orientation and Alcohol Use Identification Test (AUDIT-C) score. Hazardous alcohol use was prevalent among men, with perceived social network support influencing consumption, particularly among SM servicemen.
