for parental AUD would differ if severity, duration, and/or remission of parental AUD were considered. Fifth, our data reflect risk factors for transitions without consideration of potentially inhibitory/protective influences. Sixth, effects of maternal AUD may reflect in part in utero exposures which are not available for most offspring. Lastly, due to IRB restrictions, questions specific to childhood sexual and physical abuse were not collected across all sites and thus not included in analyses reported here, and there were no questions about childhood neglect. Thus, we are not able to add to the evidence accumulating in the literature on the importance of these factors in stages of alcohol and other drug involvement.
