酒精相关的态度是显而易见的，在儿童有个人经验饮酒和酒精使用的关键近端预测，但相对较少的是知道如何早期生活特征预测这些态度。在童年晚期终生戒酒者（法师= 10.67岁; 51%的女孩）中，我们研究了积极的酒精预期和饮酒风险的预测因素。千禧年队列研究是一项针对英国出生儿童的全国代表性纵向研究，数据来自11，097名在11岁时完成自我报告调查并报告从未饮酒的儿童。序贯结构模型表明，社会人口因素是11岁酒精态度的远端预测因子，部分通过家庭和儿童风险因素（在3至7岁时测量）进行操作。饮酒态度因社会人口统计学而异;例如，男孩比女孩有更高的积极期望，白色英国儿童比黑人英国儿童和亚裔英国儿童有更高的积极期望和更低的感知风险。在家庭因素方面，父母酗酒问题预测儿童的感知风险较低，更高的亲子冲突预测更积极的期望。对于儿童因素，儿童的更大的认知技能预测较高的感知风险，和内化的问题预测更积极的期望。通过亲子冲突和内化问题的社会人口统计学的间接影响预测积极的期望;通过父母酒精问题和认知技能的间接影响预测感知风险。未来的研究应进一步深入研究酗酒态度发展的潜在机制及其作为可扩展预防目标的潜力。
Alcohol-related attitudes are evident before children have personal experience drinking alcohol and represent key proximal predictors of alcohol use, but relatively little is known about how early life characteristics predict these attitudes. Among late childhood lifetime alcohol abstainers (Mage= 10.67 years; 51% girls), we examine predictors of positive alcohol expectancies and perceived risk of alcohol use. Data from the Millennium Cohort Study, an ongoing nationally representative longitudinal study of children born in the UK, were available from 11,097 children who completed the self-report survey at modal age 11 and reported never drinking alcohol. A sequential structural model suggested that sociodemographic factors were distal predictors of age 11 alcohol attitudes that operated, in part, through family and child risk factors (measured at ages 3 to 7). Alcohol attitudes varied by sociodemographics; for example, boys had higher positive expectancies than girls and White British children had higher positive expectancies and lower perceived risk than Black British and Asian British children. In terms of family factors, parent alcohol problems predicted children's lower perceived risk, and higher parent-child conflict predicted more positive expectancies. For child factors, children's greater cognitive skills predicted higher perceived risk, and internalizing problems predicted more positive expectancies. Indirect effects from sociodemographics through parent-child conflict and internalizing problems predicted positive expectancies; indirect effects through parent alcohol problems and cognitive skills predicted perceived risk. Future research should delve further into mechanisms underlying the development of alcohol attitudes and their potential as malleable targets for prevention.
