DESCRIPTION (Adapted from the Applicant's Abstract): Although there are age limits on gambling throughout the United States, research consistently shows that adolescents and young adults are significantly more likely to be characterized as problem gamblers than their adult counterparts. Youthful gambling is also significantly correlated with other adolescent problem behaviors including alcohol, other substance use and delinquency. However, there is very little research on the etiology of adolescent gambling and there are no longitudinal studies examining the development of youthful gambling behaviors in the context of substance use. Cost-effective secondary data analysis is proposed using two longitudinal studies previously funded by NIAAA to focus on adolescent alcohol misuse. Both studies include the same measures of gambling behaviors. The gambling measures have not been analyzed due to limited resources. Study 1 (Family and Adolescent Study), is a six-wave longitudinal panel study of 699 adolescents, aged 13-16 at wave 1 and 18-23 at wave 6 with independent assessments from parents and peers. Study 2 (Delinquency in Young Men) is a three-wave longitudinal panel study of substance use and delinquency among 625 males, aged 16-19 at wave 1 and 19-22 in wave 3 with an independent assessment from a family respondent (usually the mother). Both studies employed general population samples; but Study 1 included an oversample of black families and Study 2 included an oversample of young men at high risk for delinquency. Using a conceptual model of the development of the co-occurrence of gambling, substance use and delinquency, cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses are specified using predictors from sociodemographic, individual/psychological, and parent/peer socialization domains. The specific aims are to determine: a) the sociodemographic correlates of gambling behaviors; b) the relationships between individual/psychological factors and gambling; c) the family and peer influences on the development of gambling behaviors and d) the inter-relationships between gambling, alcohol and other substance use and delinquency as well to examine the common etiological factors influencing these problem behaviors. A better understanding of the protective and risk factors for youthful gambling can be used to inform prevention strategies.

描述（改编自申请人的摘要）：虽然有年龄 研究一致表明，美国各地对赌博的限制 青少年和年轻人更有可能 与成年赌徒相比，他们被认为是问题赌徒。青春活力 赌博也与其他青少年问题显着相关 行为包括酗酒、使用其他药物和犯罪。然而， 关于青少年赌博的病因学的研究很少，而且 没有纵向研究考察青少年赌博的发展 物质使用背景下的行为。高性价比的二手数据 使用先前由 NIAAA 资助的两项纵向研究提出分析 重点关注青少年酗酒问题。两项研究都包含相同的措施 的赌博行为。赌博措施尚未分析，因为 资源有限。研究 1（家庭和青少年研究）是一个六波 对 699 名青少年进行的纵向小组研究，第一波年龄为 13-16 岁，第二波年龄为 18-23 岁 第 6 波由家长和同龄人进行独立评估。研究2 （青年男子犯罪）是一项三波纵向面板研究 第 1 波和 19-22 岁 625 名 16-19 岁男性的药物使用和犯罪行为 在第三波中，由家庭受访者（通常是家庭受访者）进行独立评估 母亲）。这两项研究都采用了一般人群样本；但包括研究 1 对黑人家庭进行过采样，研究 2 对年轻男性进行了过采样 存在较高的违法风险。 使用赌博同现发展的概念模型， 物质使用和犯罪，横断面和纵向分析 使用社会人口统计学、个人/心理和 父母/同伴社交领域。具体目标是确定： a) 赌博行为的社会人口统计学相关性； b) 之间的关系 个人/心理因素和赌博； c) 家人和同伴 对赌博行为发展的影响 d) 赌博、酗酒和其他物质使用之间的相互关系 以及检查影响这些行为的常见病因 问题行为。更好地了解保护因素和风险因素 青少年赌博可用于制定预防策略。
