背景：父母酗酒可能会对子女的饮酒行为产生负面影响，但目前尚不清楚这种影响在多大程度上是性别特有的，并取决于实际测量的饮酒行为。这项研究的目的是调查挪威青少年男孩(N=2538)和女孩(N=2494)的危险饮酒是否与父亲和母亲的酒精滥用(CAGE)有关。方法：子女危险饮酒的定义基于自我报告的饮酒量(以每年升为单位)、饮酒频率和醉酒频率。基于这一信息，还构建了两个危险饮酒的综合衡量标准。挪威Young-Hunt 3调查(2006-2008)的横断面数据与参加Hunt研究成人部分的亲生父母的信息有关。结果：Logistic回归分析显示，与相同年龄和性别的其他人相比，父亲酗酒的男孩和女孩报告的酒精摄入量更高。这与滥用母亲的男孩相反，后者报告的饮酒量比其他男孩少。在女孩中，而不是男孩中，高频率的醉酒与母亲和父亲的滥用有关。结论：本研究表明，与父母没有滥用酒精的男孩和女孩相比，青少年危险饮酒在父母酗酒的男孩和女孩中更普遍。然而，研究结果因性别不同而不同，具体取决于调查中的饮酒结果。在这一领域有更多的循证知识，对于更好地了解父亲和母亲酗酒在青少年中形成危险饮酒模式方面可能发挥的作用，具有重要意义。
Background: Parental alcohol misuse may negatively affect drinking behaviours among offspring, but it is unclear to what extent influences are gender-specific and dependent upon the actual drinking behaviour measured. The aim of this study was to investigate whether hazardous drinking among Norwegian teenage boys (N = 2538) and girls (N = 2494) was associated with paternal and maternal alcohol misuse (CAGE).Methods: Definitions of hazardous drinking among offspring were based on self-reported alcohol consumption (in litres a year), frequency of drinking, and frequency of drunkenness. Based on this information, two composite measures of hazardous drinking were also constructed. Cross-sectional data from the Norwegian Young-HUNT 3 survey (2006-2008) were linked to information from biological parents who participated in the adult part of the HUNT study.Results: Logistic regression analyses showed that both boys and girls with alcohol misusing fathers were more likely to report high levels of alcohol intake compared to others of the same age and gender. This was contrary to boys with misusing mothers, who reported less alcohol consumption than other boys. Among girls, but not boys, high frequency of drunkenness was associated with maternal as well as paternal misuse.Conclusions: This study suggests that adolescent hazardous drinking is more prevalent among boys and girls with alcohol misusing parents versus those whose parents do not misuse alcohol. However, findings were gender specific and varied depending on the drinking outcomes under investigation. More evidence-based knowledge in this field is of great importance for better understanding the possible role paternal and maternal alcohol misuse may play in the development of hazardous alcohol drinking patterns among adolescent boys and girls.
