Text

Alcohol problems, parental knowledge, and peer deviance were assessed at age 14. The alcohol measure was a sum score of alcohol problems (range 0–30) from the Child version of the Semi-Structured Assessment for the Genetics of Alcoholism [32]. Sample items included needing 50% more alcohol to get an effect, being unable to cut down, reducing important activities to drink, and experiencing withdrawal symptoms.
