yes

Another limitation is the unmeasured association between pre-existing mental health problems and the risky behaviors. Internalizing symptomatology, especially depression, is related to adolescent alcohol use (Saraceno, Munafó, Heron, Craddock, van den Bree, 2009), and could be affecting the risky behaviors measured in this research.
