工作背景：本研究探讨了饮酒规则、父母早期饮酒规范和父母饮酒在青少年饮酒行为发展中的作用。据推测，父母的规范和饮酒影响了父母对酒精的规则，这反过来又防止了青少年儿童饮酒。研究方法：纵向数据收集了416个家庭，包括父母和两个青少年（13至16岁）的分析。结果：结构方程模型的结果表明，有明确的规则，降低了青少年饮酒的可能性。然而，纵向酒精特定的规则只有间接影响青少年的酒精使用，即通过早期饮酒。分析集中在解释饮酒的发病显示，有严格的规则是有关推迟饮酒开始的年龄较大的和较年轻的青少年。此外，父母对青少年早期饮酒和父母饮酒的规范与酒精特定的规则有关。父母的规范也与青少年的饮酒有关。结论：目前的研究是第一个使用完整的家庭设计来深入了解酒精特定规则对青少年饮酒的作用。结果表明，严格的规则与推迟饮酒有关，而酒精特定的规则取决于其他因素，从而强调了父母对青少年饮酒发展的影响的复杂性。
Background: The present study explores the role of having rules about alcohol, parental norms about early alcohol use, and parental alcohol use in the development of adolescents' drinking behavior. It is assumed that parental norms and alcohol use affect the rules parents have about alcohol, which in turn prevents alcohol use by adolescent children. Methods: Longitudinal data collected from 416 families consisting of both parents and two adolescents ( aged 13 to 16 years) were used for the analyses. Results: Results of structural equation modeling show that having clear rules decreases the likelihood of drinking in adolescence. However, longitudinally alcohol-specific rules have only an indirect effect on adolescents' alcohol use, namely through earlier drinking. Analyses focusing on explaining the onset of drinking revealed that having strict rules was related to the postponement of drinking initiation of older and younger adolescents. Further, parental norms about adolescents' early drinking and parental alcohol use were associated with having alcohol-specific rules. Parental norms were also related to adolescents' alcohol use. Conclusions: The current study is one of the first using a full family design to provide insight into the role of alcohol-specific rules on adolescents' drinking. It was shown that having strict rules is related to postponement of drinking, and that having alcohol-specific rules depends on other factors, thus underlining the complexity of the influence of parenting on the development of adolescents' alcohol use.
