The Australian Parental Supply of Alcohol Longitudinal Study (APSALS) was established in 2010 to investigate the short- and long-term associations between exposure to early parental alcohol provision, early adolescent alcohol initiation, subsequent alcohol use and alcohol-related harms, controlling for a wide range of parental, child, familial, peer and contextual covariates. The cohort commenced with 1927 parent-child dyads comprising Australian Grade 7 school students (mean age = 12.9 years, range = 10.8-15.7 years), and a parent/guardian. Baseline, 1- and 2-year follow-up data have been collected, with > 90% retention, and a 3-year follow-up is under way. The data collected include child, familial, parental and peer factors addressing demographics, alcohol use and supply, parenting practices, other substance use, adolescent behaviours and peer influences. The cohort is ideal for prospectively examining predictors of initiation and progression of alcohol use, which increases markedly through adolescence.
澳大利亚父母供酒纵向研究（APSALS）成立于 2010 年，旨在调查早期父母供酒、青少年早期饮酒开始、随后的饮酒行为和与饮酒相关的伤害之间的短期和长期关联，同时控制了广泛的父母、孩子、家庭、同伴和背景协变量。该队列由 1927 对父母-子女对组成，包括澳大利亚 7 年级的学生（平均年龄为 12.9 岁，范围为 10.8-15.7 岁）和一名家长/监护人。已经收集了基线、1 年和 2 年的随访数据，保留率超过 90%，并正在进行 3 年的随访。收集的数据包括儿童、家庭、父母和同伴因素，涉及人口统计学、酒精使用和供应、育儿实践、其他物质使用、青少年行为和同伴影响。该队列非常适合前瞻性地研究青少年期饮酒行为开始和发展的预测因素。
