The current study examined the relationship between alcohol and violence using a longitudinal survey of adolescents ages 11-26. Data were derived from 10,828 adolescents in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) Waves I-III. Survey logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between alcohol use and violence. Even after adjustment for baseline, consistent alcohol use predicted violence in young adulthood (OR =1.41; 95% CI [1.03, 1.91]); however, violence was not predictive of problematic alcohol use. Overall, consistent alcohol use appears to be a predictor of serious physical violence, whereas physical violence does not predict problematic alcohol use.
本研究通过对11至26岁青少年的纵向调查,考察了酒精与暴力行为之间的关系。数据来源于青少年健康全国纵向研究(Add Health)第一至三波中的10828名青少年。采用调查逻辑回归分析来考察饮酒与暴力行为之间的关系。即使在对基线进行调整之后,持续饮酒仍可预测成年早期的暴力行为(比值比=1.41;95%置信区间[1.03, 1.91]);然而,暴力行为并不能预测饮酒问题。总体而言,持续饮酒似乎是严重身体暴力行为的一个预测因素,而身体暴力行为并不能预测饮酒问题。
