Chunk #21 — Results — Analyses Predicting Intercept, Slope, and Quadratic Curvature of the Longitudinal Course of Heavy Episodic Drinking — Parental Relationship Discord
As shown in Table 3, in the EA sample, parental relationship discord was not associated with the intercept. In the interactive effects model, there was no evidence that PGSPAU and parental relationship discord interacted to predict intercept, linear slope, or quadratic terms for HED across time. In contrast, in the AA sample, as shown in Table 4, parental relationship discord was associated with a more rapid escalation of HED and lower quadratic growth of HED (ie, slower decline in HED in the mid and late 20s). Figure S2, available online, depicts the predicted value for HED across ages 12 to 32 years by sex, conditioned on low (−1 SD) and high (+ 1 SD) parental relationship discord.
