Objective.本研究的目的是在一个有代表性的英国学生样本中，研究吸烟和饮酒之间的横向和纵向联系。数据来自13，635名英国青年纵向研究（LSYPE）中的学生，他们从2004年（典型年龄14岁）到2006年（16岁）吸烟，从2004年到2007年（17岁）饮酒，用潜在增长曲线模型进行分析。学生饮酒的加权百分比从14岁的26%增加到17岁的71%，吸烟从12%增加到16岁的27%。社会经济地位较低的学生更有可能吸烟，但不太可能经常饮酒。这两种行为在14岁时呈正相关，并对几个混杂因素进行了调整。随着时间的推移，增加的速度也呈正相关。吸烟和饮酒在14岁时就已经相互关联，是社会经济模式，在青春期“一起移动”。未来的研究和干预措施应针对较年轻的年龄范围，以确定早期吸烟和潜在危险的饮酒模式。(C)2013 Elsevier Inc.

Objective. The aim of our study was to examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between cigarette smoking and alcohol drinking, in a representative sample of English pupils.Method. Data from 13,635 school pupils in the Longitudinal Study of Young People in England (LSYPE) on usage of cigarettes from 2004 (typical age 14) to 2006 (age 16) and alcohol from 2004 to 2007 (age 17), analyzed with latent growth curve models.Results. The weighted percentage of pupils drinking alcohol increased from 26% at age 14 to 71% by age 17, smoking from 12% to 27% by age 16. Pupils with lower socio-economic status were more likely to smoke but less likely to drink alcohol regularly. Both behaviors were positively correlated at age 14, adjusted for several confounding factors. The rate of increase over time was also positively correlated.Conclusion. Cigarette smoking and alcohol drinking are already correlated by age 14, are socio-economically patterned, and 'move together' during adolescence. Future studies and interventions should be targeted at a younger age range, to identify early smoking and potentially hazardous alcohol drinking patterns. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
