“…This finding is similar to what was reported in the NLAES study where separate and independent effects of family history of alcoholism and age at onset of first drink were found (Grant and Dawson, 1997). Similar findings were also found in an analysis of Russian high schools and technical schools around Moscow, where early age at first drink and antisocial orientation produced separate and independent effects on the frequency of alcohol use during the past year (Parker et al, 1996).…”

“…Early adolescent drinking predicts heavy drinking and problems with alcohol in young adulthood (Lo, 2000; Parker et al, 1996; Sampson et al, 1989; Werner et al, 1994). More specifically, drinking before age 15 predicts a clear pattern of increased frequency, binging, and alcohol-related problem behaviors and attitudes in young adulthood; with the earliest users, such as those who began at age 13 or younger, exhibiting the worst outcomes (Pikanen et al, 2005).…”

Data from the in-school sample of the PROSPER preventive intervention dissemination trial were used to investigate associations between alcohol dehydrogenase genes and alcohol use across adolescence, and whether substance misuse interventions in the 6th and 7th grades (targeting parenting, family functioning, social norms, youth decision making, and peer group affiliations) modified associations between these genes and adolescent use. Primary analyses were run on a sample of 1,885 individuals and included three steps. First, we estimated unconditional growth curve models with separate slopes for alcohol use from 6th to 9th grade and from 9th to 12th grade, as well as the intercept at Grade 9. Second, we used intervention condition and three alcohol dehydrogenase genes, 1B (ADH1B), 1C (ADH1C), and 4 (ADH4) to predict variance in slopes and intercept. Third, we examined whether genetic influences on model slopes and intercepts were moderated by intervention condition. The results indicated that the increase in alcohol use was greater in early adolescence than in middle adolescence; two of the genes, ADH1B and ADH1C, significantly predicted early adolescent slope and Grade 9 intercept, and associations between ADH1C and both early adolescent slope and intercept were significantly different across control and intervention conditions.

“…conduct problems, aggressiveness, delinquency and crime) co‐occur at very high rates across development [19], and antisocial behaviour in adolescence has been found to be a risk factor for later problem drinking (e.g. [20–23]). Aggressiveness in early school age tends to lead to a cycle of maladjustment at school indicated by low school motivation and success, punishments at school and truancy, which is linked to the use of alcohol, low occupational alternatives and long‐term unemployment [24].…”

A developmental approach to alcohol drinking behaviour in adulthood: a follow‐up study from age 8 to age 42

Aims To study the links of family background, child and adolescent social behaviour, and (mal)adaptation with heavy drinking by age 20 and with the frequency of drinking, binge drinking, Cut-down, Annoyed, Guilt, Eye-opener (CAGE) questionnaire scores and problems due to drinking at ages 27 and 42 years. Design In the Finnish Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Personality and Social Development, data have been collected by interviews, inventories and questionnaires. Behavioural data were gathered at ages 8 and 14; data on alcohol consumption were gathered at ages 14, 20, 27, 36 and 42. Participants A total of 184 males and 163 females; 94% of the original sample of the 8-year-olds. Findings Family adversities, externalizing problem behaviours, low school success, truancy and substance use in adolescence were associated in early middle age with problems due to drinking in both genders, and to binge drinking and CAGE scores in females. The antecedents varied, however, across the indicators of drinking and gender. The frequency of drinking was least predictable by the studied antecedents. Childhood and adolescent antecedents and drinking up to age 20 explained 43% of males' and 31% of females' problem drinking at age 42; 31% and 19%, respectively, at age 27. Conclusions The early warning signs of drinking problems should be taken seriously in the preventive work for alcohol abuse. Problem drinking in early middle age is preceded by maladjustment to school, early age of onset of drinking and heavy drinking in adolescence even more significantly than problem drinking in early adulthood.
