目前的研究通过3项纵向研究,考察了酗酒父母的孩子和非酗酒父母的孩子在人生最初30年的负面生活事件经历上的差异。作者认为,coa在易受压力源影响的生活领域、压力源的复发以及压力源的严重程度上与同龄人有所不同。基于7个生活领域压力源的调整优势比的量表和项目水平分析显示,coa一致报告家庭领域压力源的风险更高。coa也更有可能反复经历压力源,并认为他们的压力源更严重(在成年期)。针对这一风险群体的预防和干预方案的意义进行了讨论。
The current study examined differences between children of alcoholic (COAs) and nonalcoholic parents in their experience of negative life events across 3 longitudinal studies together spanning the first 3 decades of life. The authors posited that COAs would differ from their peers in the life domains in which they are vulnerable to stressors, in the recurrence of stressors, and in the severity of stressors. Scale- and item-level analyses of adjusted odds ratios based on stressors across 7 life domains showed that COAs consistently reported greater risk for stressors in the family domain. COAs were also more likely to experience stressors repetitively and to rate their stressors as more severe (in adulthood). Implications for prevention and intervention programs targeting this risk group are discussed.
