Multiple assessments of age of onset of alcohol use milestones may produce inconsistent reports, yielding potentially different results, depending on the report utilized. Using data from a prospective study of 1,023 middle-school students, we modeled risk of onset of four drinking milestones as a function of multiple correlates of alcohol use and compared models using first versus last reported age for each milestone. . While forward telescoping was evident, no significant differences were obtained for any models examined. Substantive conclusions about associations of correlates of early drinking are not greatly impacted by misreporting age of first use.
对饮酒里程碑事件发病年龄的多次评估可能会产生不一致的报告,根据所使用的报告,可能会得出不同的结果。利用来自1023名中学生的前瞻性研究数据,我们将四个饮酒里程碑事件发病风险建模为饮酒多种相关因素的函数,并比较了使用每个里程碑首次报告年龄与最后报告年龄的模型。虽然向前伸缩现象明显,但在所检查的任何模型中均未获得显著差异。早期饮酒相关因素关联的实质性结论不会因首次使用年龄报告错误而受到很大影响。
