虽然在先前的研究中已经建立了儿童执行控制（EC）和青少年物质使用之间的预测关联，但这些长期联系中涉及的发展途径尚未得到很好的理解。本研究的目的是调查攻击性行为，包括身体和关系的侵略，亲社会行为在小学运作的发展途径之间的学前EC和青少年物质使用的程度，同时占参与者的年龄，性别，物质使用的家族史，和家庭的社会经济地位。参与者是329名青年（49%为男性; 63.6%为欧洲裔美国人），他们在2006年至2012年期间被招募参加一项研究，当时青年人在学前班和小学，并随后进入青春期。样本来自美国中西部的一个小城市。当儿童5岁3个月时，采用基于表现的任务对EC进行评估。当参与者在小学时，教师报告了青少年与同龄人的行为。通过电话调查获得了青少年开始使用物质（电子烟，香烟，酒精和大麻）的自我报告。中介分析显示，学前教育通过青少年在小学的关系攻击行为对青少年药物使用产生了统计学上显著的间接影响（B= > −0.22 [−0.51; −0.08];β= > −0.18）。我们的研究结果表明，青少年物质使用的发展途径可能开始在学龄前，设置阶段的易感性参与关系的侵略，这反过来又增加了青年的可能性，在青春期开始使用物质。
Although predictive associations between childhood executive control (EC) and adolescent substance use have been established in prior research, the developmental pathways involved in these long-term links have not been well understood. The goal of the current study was to investigate the degree to which aggressive behaviors, including both physical and relational aggression, and prosocial behaviors in elementary school operate as developmental pathways between preschool EC and adolescent substance use, while accounting for participants’ age, sex, family history of substance use, and family socioeconomic status. Participants were 329 youth (49% male; 63.6% European American) who were recruited to participate in a study between 2006 and 2012 while youth were in preschool and elementary school and followed into adolescence. The sample was recruited from a small Midwestern city in the United States. EC was assessed with performance-based tasks when children were 5 years 3 months. Youth behaviors with peers were reported by teachers when participants were in elementary school. Self-reports of the substance use initiation (e-cigarettes, cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana) were obtained in adolescence via phone surveys. Mediation analyses revealed a statistically significant indirect effect from preschool EC to adolescent substance use through youth’s engagement in relational aggression in elementary school (b= > −0.22 [−0.51; −0.08];β= > −0.18). Our results suggest that developmental pathways to adolescent substance use may begin in preschool, setting the stage for susceptibility to engagement in relational aggression, which increases, in turn, youth’s likelihood for substance use initiation in adolescence.
