DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Information on the development of involvement with alcohol between childhood and adolescence is lacking. Most longitudinal studies of alcohol use have started with adolescents and followed them into adulthood. Consequently, more is known about the natural history of alcohol involvement from adolescence on, despite recent findings showing early onset alcohol use as a risk factor for later alcohol problems. In addition, little is known about the development of risk factors for adolescent drinking because these have generally not been assessed prior to adolescence. Nor is information available regarding the influence of preadolescent risk factors on alcohol use onset and transitions into problematic alcohol use in adolescence. Such Information can have important implications for the design of alcohol prevention programs in the elementary schools. This is an application to fund the continuation into adolescence of the Teen to Teen Study, an ongoing longitudinal study of over 400 Caucasian and African-American 8- and 10-year-old children and their families, from whom seven previous waves of data will have been collected. The study is unique in its measurement of alcohol socialization influences and personality and attitudinal risk factors for later alcohol involvement. An important feature of the study is the 6-month interval between interviews, allowing us to capture rapid changes in these antecedents as well as to estimate more precisely the relation between developments in risk and drinking onset. In addition to the target children, the sample consists of their biological mothers, their biological fathers (or mother's current partner), an older same-sex sibling (if available), and one or two close friends. Retention of the sample over time has exceeded 90% through the first five waves of data collection, establishing a firm basis for the continuation of the study into adolescence when their alcohol involvement will escalate. An additional seven waves of data collection are proposed in the present application to provide nearly continuous assessment of these two cohorts of children every six months from ages 8 and 10 through ages 15 and 17, respectively.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺乏关于儿童和青少年酗酒发展的信息。大多数关于酒精使用的纵向研究都是从青少年开始，一直跟踪到成年。因此，尽管最近的研究结果显示，早发性饮酒是日后酒精问题的风险因素，但人们对青春期开始饮酒的自然历史了解得更多。此外，人们对青少年饮酒风险因素的发展知之甚少，因为这些因素在青春期之前通常没有被评估过。也没有关于青春期前危险因素对青春期酒精使用的开始和过渡到有问题的酒精使用的影响的信息。这些信息对小学预防酒精项目的设计具有重要意义。这是一项为“青少年对青少年研究”（Teen - to - Teen Study）的延续提供资金的申请，该研究正在对400多名8岁至10岁的白人和非裔美国儿童及其家庭进行纵向研究，从他们那里收集了前七波数据。该研究在测量酒精社会化影响以及人格和态度风险因素方面是独一无二的。该研究的一个重要特征是访谈间隔为6个月，这使我们能够捕捉到这些前项的快速变化，并更准确地估计风险发展与饮酒发作之间的关系。除了目标孩子之外，样本还包括他们的亲生母亲、亲生父亲（或母亲的现任伴侣）、一个年长的同性兄弟姐妹（如果有的话）和一两个亲密的朋友。随着时间的推移，通过前五波数据收集，样本的保留率超过了90%，为将研究持续到青少年时期奠定了坚实的基础，届时他们的酒精参与将会升级。在目前的申请中，建议另外进行七波数据收集，以便每六个月对这两组儿童分别从8岁和10岁到15岁和17岁进行几乎连续的评估。
