Correlates of Alcohol-Related Treatment Among American Indians and Alaska Natives with Lifetime Alcohol Use Disorder.

A relatively higher proportion of AIAN than NHW with AUDs sought alcohol treatment. Among individuals with lifetime AUD, significant demographic and psychiatric disorder correlates of treatment are present, showing that certain groups are less likely to seek treatment or help for alcohol-related issues. Among AIAN with AUD, these correlates may reflect distinct patterns of seeking alcohol-related treatment, which can inform more effective treatment promotion efforts with this population.
