本研究探讨了异质性的发展轨迹中的酒精使用的青少年和随之而来的特定的纵向影响暴露于他们的越轨同龄人。使用酒精使用的国家数据集（N = 188），增长混合模型捕捉青少年酒精使用的增长轨迹，从14岁到18岁的第一次检查。其次是年龄不同的同龄人对青少年饮酒的影响和同伴的影响和青少年饮酒的共同发展的调查。青少年酒精使用的重复测量数据的增长混合模型的结果显示，两个不同的潜在类的发展轨迹与使用水平的显着差异。暴露于越轨的同龄人和青少年饮酒变量的分析表明，不同的轨迹类的同龄人的影响。较强的前瞻性影响的轨迹组具有较低的初始状态的使用found. Findings从这项研究表明，需要考虑异质性的研究同龄人的影响，在青春期酒精的使用，以促进更精细的针对性的预防/干预计划。
This study examines heterogeneity in the developmental trajectories of alcohol use in adolescents and the accompanying trajectory-specific longitudinal influence of exposure to their deviant peers. Using a national data set on alcohol use (N = 188), a growth mixture model capturing growth trajectories in adolescent alcohol use from ages 14 to 18 years was first examined. This was followed by an investigation of age-varying influences of peers on adolescent alcohol use and the co-development of peer influence and adolescent alcohol use. Results of growth mixture modeling of repeated-measures data on adolescent alcohol use showed two distinct latent classes of developmental trajectory with significant differences in levels of use. Analyses of exposure to deviant peer and adolescent alcohol use variables indicated differential effects of peers across trajectory classes. Stronger prospective influences for the trajectory group having a low initial status of use were found. Findings from this study suggest the need to consider heterogeneity in the study of peer influence on alcohol use during adolescence to facilitate more refined targeting of prevention/intervention programs.
