背景资料：儿童在幼年时期在家庭中暴露于累积的背景风险，增加了儿童在青春期和成年初期卷入毒品和相关困难的风险，包括学业失败。然而，缓冲这些风险关联的潜在保护因素相对未经测试，但需要此类测试来改善现有的预防干预措施，以增强弱势儿童的复原力。Objectives：本研究测试了儿童在家与父母的阅读参与，作为累积家庭风险与青少年物质使用和学习成绩以及年轻成人物质滥用的调节剂。1986年北方芬兰出生队列研究的6，963名参与者的人口登记数据以及父母报告和父母报告数据通过具有潜变量相互作用的结构方程模型进行分析。结果表明，儿童阅读参与调节了累积家庭风险与青少年学业成绩和年轻成人的关联药物滥用，但不与青少年药物使用。在低风险和高阅读参与度的条件下观察到最高水平的学习成绩。有趣的是，累积的家庭风险有一个小的正相关与药物滥用时，阅读的参与是低和负相关的年轻人的结果时，阅读的参与是high.Conclusions/重要性：适度测试揭示了复杂的互动形式，可能有影响的理论和家庭为基础的预防干预措施。
Background: Exposure to cumulative contextual risk within the family early in life increases children’s risk for substance involvement and related difficulties, including school failure, in adolescence and young adulthood. However, potential protective factors that buffer these risk associations are relatively untested, yet such tests are needed to improve existing preventive interventions for enhancing resilience among vulnerable children.Objectives: This study tested child reading engagement with parents at home as a moderator of cumulative family risk associations with adolescent substance use and academic performance as well as young adult substance abuse.Methods: Population register data as well as parent-report and adolescent-report data from 6,963 participants of the 1986 Northern Finland Birth Cohort study were analyzed via structural equation modeling with latent variable interactions.Results: Results showed that child reading engagement moderated the associations of cumulative family risk with both adolescent academic performance and young adult substance abuse, but not with adolescent substance use. The highest levels of academic performance were observed under conditions of low risk and high reading engagement. Interestingly, cumulative family risk had a small positive association with substance abuse when reading engagement was low and a negative association with the young adult outcome when reading engagement was high.Conclusions/Importance: Moderation tests revealed complex interaction forms that may have implications for both theory and family-based preventive interventions.
