The distribution of C-RA, A-RA, and alcohol involvement, across race/ethnicity, is presented in Table 1. Overall, 62.1% and 71.3% of Whites and Blacks reported weekly or greater C-RA, respectively. The frequency of RA declined into adulthood with only 26.2% of Whites and 34.9% of Blacks reporting similar levels of A-RA as C-RA. The most commonly endorsed religious affiliations were Baptist, Roman Catholic, Other Protestant, and None and most participants reported the same affiliation during childhood and adulthood. Of the Whites, 5.5% had never had a drink of alcohol. Of those who had ever had a drink, 41.0% reported an age at first drink prior to age 16 and 31.1% met criteria for modified DSM-5 AUD. Of the Blacks, 13.2% reported no lifetime history of ever drinking. Of those who had ever had a drink, 26.6% had started drinking prior to age 16 and 16.8% met criteria for a lifetime history of modified DSM-5 AUD. C-RA and A-RA were moderately correlated in White (r =.49 [.45, .53]) and Black (r = .35 [.25, .46]) females.
