本研究采用潜伏期生长模型研究了酗酒和非酗酒家庭中攻击性和对抗性行为的发展。样本包括226个家庭，分别在18、24、36和48个月的儿童年龄进行评估。结果表明，父母不酗酒的家庭的孩子在所有时间点上的攻击性行为水平都比父母中有一人或多人酗酒的孩子低。与不酗酒的家庭相比，父母都酗酒的家庭的孩子在3到4岁的时候攻击行为没有表现出正常的减少。然而，一旦累积的家庭风险分数被添加到模型中，这种关联就不再显著了。累积风险分数高、父母抑郁程度高、反社会行为、游戏中的负面情绪、孩子气质不好、婚姻冲突、父亲教育程度和在育儿时间上花费的家庭的儿童在18个月时的攻击性水平高于低风险家庭的儿童。这些联系受到儿童性别的影响。男孩在所有年龄段的攻击性行为水平都高于女孩，无论群体地位如何。累积风险预示着女孩和男孩的初始攻击行为水平更高。然而，与非酗酒组的男孩相比，父母都酗酒的男孩在36到48个月的时间里攻击性下降的幅度要小得多。
This study examined the development of aggressive and oppositional behavior among alcoholic and nonalcoholic families using latent growth modeling. The sample consisted of 226 families assessed at 18, 24, 36, and 48 months of child age. Results indicated that children in families with nonalcoholic parents had the lowest levels of aggressive behavior at all time points compared to children with one or more alcoholic parents. Children in families with two alcoholic parents did not exhibit normative decreases in aggressive behavior from 3 to 4 years of age compared to nonalcoholic families. However, this association was no longer significant once a cumulative family risk score was added to the model. Children in families with high cumulative risk scores, reflective of high parental depression, antisocial behavior, negative affect during play, difficult child temperament, marital conflict, fathers' education, and hours spent in child care, had higher levels of aggression at 18 months than children in low risk families. These associations were moderated by child gender. Boys had higher levels of aggressive behavior at all ages than girls, regardless of group status. Cumulative risk was predictive of higher levels of initial aggressive behavior in both girls and boys. However, boys with two alcoholic parents had significantly less of a decline in aggression from 36 to 48 months compared to boys in the nonalcoholic group.
