This study assessed the magnitude and specificity of parental alcoholism as a risk factor for internalizing symptomatology, externalizing symptomatology, and alcohol and drug use in adolescence. We evaluated parents' and children's reports of symptomatology and children's reports of alcohol and drug use in a community sample of 454 adolescents. The results showed that parental alcoholism was a moderate to strong risk factor, with stronger risk associated with recent (rather than remitted) parental alcoholism. Multivariate analyses showed that the specificity of risk varied with the outcome measure. In predicting externalizing symptomatology, the risk associated with parental alcoholism was mediated by co-occurring parental psychopathology and environmental stress. However, in predicting alcohol use, the father's alcoholism was a specific risk factor above and beyond the more generalized effects of stress and family disruption.
本研究评估了父母酗酒作为内化症状、外化症状以及青少年酒精和药物使用风险因素的程度和特异性。我们在一个由454名青少年组成的社区样本中，评估了父母和孩子关于症状的报告以及孩子关于酒精和药物使用的报告。结果显示，父母酗酒是一个中度到强烈的风险因素，近期（而非已缓解）的父母酗酒与之关联的风险更强。多变量分析表明，风险的特异性随结果测量指标而变化。在预测外化症状时，与父母酗酒相关的风险是由同时出现的父母精神病理学和环境压力介导的。然而，在预测酒精使用时，父亲的酗酒是一个超出压力和家庭破裂更普遍影响的特定风险因素。
