本研究探讨了青少年物质使用的作用，其先行的行为和家庭危险因素的预测年轻的成年人内化症状10年后，使用社区样本的酗酒者（n= 194）和人口统计学匹配的控制（n= 209）。使用生长曲线模型，作者发现，青少年酒精和药物使用的初始水平（μ年龄= 13）以及青少年时期药物使用的增长预测了年轻成年时更高水平的内化症状，即使在模型中包括内化症状和青少年物质使用的共同风险因素之后。这些影响仍然显着后，包括并发物质使用在成年期，这表明青少年物质使用施加长期影响年轻的成年人内化症状以上的影响，随着时间的推移持续使用物质。目前的调查进一步表明，在青春期的酒精和药物使用的初始水平调解父母酗酒和年轻的成年人内化症状之间的关系。研究结果为青少年物质使用对年轻成年人功能的长期影响提供了证据，并有助于为病因学和预防研究提供信息。
The present study examined the role of adolescent substance use and its antecedent behavioral and familial risk factors in the prediction of young adult internalizing symptoms 10 years later, using a community sample of children of alcoholics (n= 194) and demographically matched controls (n= 209). Using growth curve modeling, the authors found that initial levels of adolescent alcohol and drug use (μ age= 13) and growth in drug use during adolescence predicted higher levels of internalizing symptoms in young adulthood, even after including in the models shared risk factors for both internalizing symptoms and adolescent substance use. These effects remained significant after including concurrent substance use in adulthood, suggesting that adolescent substance use exerts a long-term impact on young adult internalizing symptoms over and above the effects of persistent substance use over time. The present investigation further revealed that initial levels of alcohol and drug use in adolescence mediate the relation between parental alcoholism and young adult internalizing symptoms. Findings provide evidence for the long-term effects of adolescent substance use on young adult functioning and can help inform both etiological and prevention research.
