DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Substance use peaks during emerging adulthood, the age period from the late teens to the early 20s. And while cross-sectional studies have established that cigarette smoking and alcohol use are highly correlated, very little is known about the longitudinal relations between cigarette smoking and alcohol use during this stage of development. Emerging adulthood is characterized by individual variability and includes a number of life transitions potentially relevant to substance use, including the transitions into an out of college and an individual's 21st birthday, when alcohol use is no longer an illegal activity But analyses that use variable- centered approaches, such as traditional regression, rely on the assumption that the longitudinal co- occurrence of cigarette smoking and alcohol use are the same for all participants, thus ignoring this individual heterogeneity. The purpose of this research is to develop a better understanding of the individual co-occurring patterns of cigarette smoking and alcohol use throughout emerging adulthood. The analyses will be conducted using existing data from the UT Experience! study, a cohort study of 2,247 high school graduates recruited during the summer of 2004, prior to college matriculations, who were followed for 6 years (10 waves of data collection). At Wave 1, the sample was 60% female, 55% identified as Caucasian, 18% Asian, 16% Hispanic, 4% African American, and 7% identified as another racial/ethnic group. Data were collected online through a secured website. The proposed study will use two person-centered methodological approaches, growth mixture modeling and latent transition analysis, to 1) test the longitudinal co-occurrence of cigarette smoking and alcohol use throughout emerging adulthood, and 2) determine how life transitions impact the co- occurrence of cigarette smoking and alcohol use throughout emerging adulthood. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The use of cigarettes and alcohol in emerging adulthood (e.g., ages 18-25) is associated with significant consequences. Given the heterogeneity of substance use throughout emerging adulthood, it is important to understand the individual patterns of co-occurring use that have the highest potential for future consequences and whether there are stages within emerging adulthood where these co-occurrence patterns shift. It would then be possible to target interventions to those individuals at highest risk at the time periods that are most likely to influence their future substance using behaviors.

描述（由申请人提供）：药物使用高峰出现在成年初期，即从青少年晚期到20岁出头。虽然横断面研究已经确定吸烟和饮酒是高度相关的，但在这个发展阶段，吸烟和饮酒之间的纵向关系知之甚少。初入成年期的特点是个体可变性，包括许多可能与物质使用相关的生活转变，包括大学毕业和个人21岁生日的转变，这时饮酒不再是非法活动。但是，使用以变量为中心的方法（如传统回归）的分析依赖于这样的假设，即吸烟和饮酒的纵向共同发生对所有参与者都是相同的。因此忽略了这种个体异质性。这项研究的目的是为了更好地了解在整个成年初期吸烟和饮酒的个体共同发生的模式。分析将使用UT Experience的现有数据进行！研究是一项对2247名高中毕业生的队列研究，于2004年夏天招募，在大学入学之前，他们被跟踪了6年（10波数据收集）。在第一波，样本中60%为女性，55%为白种人，18%为亚洲人，16%为西班牙裔，4%为非裔美国人，7%为其他种族/族裔群体。数据是通过一个安全网站在线收集的。拟议的研究将采用两种以人为中心的方法，生长混合模型和潜在转变分析，以1)测试吸烟和饮酒的纵向共现性
