在整个青春期,饮酒和攻击性行为与多种问题结果有关。很少有研究检查了社区水平的预测因素和个人和家庭水平的社会人口变量来描述这些问题行为的纵向轨迹。因此,本研究探讨了邻里和社会人口因素在青少年攻击行为和饮酒共同发展中的独特作用。我们使用平行过程潜在增长曲线模型,以人口统计指标和邻里结构作为预测因子,分析了饮酒频率和攻击行为频率。在所有年龄段,酒精使用和攻击性呈正相关。男性与12岁时的攻击性发作和饮酒有关。非裔美国人种族与较高的早期攻击水平有关。较高的邻里收入与较低的早期攻击水平相关。研究结果为目前遏制早期饮酒和攻击性行为的努力提供了支持。
Throughout adolescence, alcohol consumption and aggressive behaviors are associated with multiple problematic outcomes. Few studies have examined neighborhood-level predictors and individual and family-level sociodemographic variables to describe longitudinal trajectories of these problem behaviors. Therefore, this study investigated the unique contributions of neighborhood and sociodemographic factors in the shared development of aggressive behaviors and drinking in adolescents. We analyzed alcohol consumption frequency and frequency of aggressive behaviors using parallel process latent growth curve models with demographic indicators and neighborhood constructs as predictors. At all ages, alcohol use and aggression positively covaried. Male gender was associated with both aggressive episodes and alcohol use at age 12. African American ethnicity was associated with higher levels of early aggression. Higher neighborhood income was associated with lower levels of early aggression. Findings lend support to current efforts to curb early initiation of alcohol use and aggression.
