Investigated ethnicity and parental alcoholism as factors that might influence the stress vulnerability of adolescents. It extended an initial cross-sectional study of this same sample by adding two annual assessments which allowed for additional cross-sectional analyses and longitudinal tests. Hispanic and Caucasian adolescents (N = 306 at Time 1) completed measures of their own life stress, family conflict, and alcohol use. Their parents reported on adolescents' internalizing and externalizing symptoms. Cross-sectional analyses at Time 2, and prospective analyses involving Time 1 and Time 2 measures were, for the most part, consistent with the original study's results. Caucasian adolescents and children of alcoholic parents appeared to be more vulnerable to stress than Hispanic adolescents and children of nonalcoholic parents. Family conflict was a partial explanation for this increased vulnerability.
研究了种族和父母酗酒这两个可能影响青少年压力易感性的因素。通过增加两次年度评估，对同一样本进行了初始横断面研究的扩展，这使得可以进行额外的横断面分析和纵向测试。西班牙裔和白人青少年（时间1时N = 306）完成了关于自身生活压力、家庭冲突和饮酒情况的测量。他们的父母报告了青少年的内化和外化症状。时间2的横断面分析以及涉及时间1和时间2测量的前瞻性分析在很大程度上与原始研究的结果一致。与西班牙裔青少年和非酗酒父母的子女相比，白人青少年和酗酒父母的子女似乎更容易受到压力的影响。家庭冲突是这种易感性增加的部分原因。
