Data for this study were drawn from the cross-sectional NESARC study (Wave 3, 2012–2013) carried out by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). The sample consisted of 36,309 noninstitutionalized men and women aged 18 years and older living in the United States. Informed consent was obtained for all participants, and all individuals who agreed to participate completed an in-person computer-assisted interview consisting of the NIAAA Alcohol Use Disorder and Associated Disabilities Interview Schedule-5 (AUDADIS-5), a reliable and valid measure of DSM-5 Alcohol Use Disorder, nicotine use disorder, and other specific drug use disorders.36 Hispanic, African American, and Asian respondents were oversampled. Data were adjusted for oversampling and nonresponse and then weighted to represent the U.S. civilian population. Methodology used in the Wave 3 NESARC survey is detailed elsewhere.3,36
