Cumulative Violence Victimization in Young Adulthood and Alcohol Use Disorder Symptoms at Age 35
OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether cumulative violence victimization during young adulthood was associated with symptoms of alcohol use disorder (AUD) at age 35 in a large U.S. national sample. METHODS: = 6,275). Violence victimization was assessed at seven young adult waves (from ages 18 to 30) and coded as a cumulative count of waves in which violence was reported (0-3+). At age 35, respondents were coded as no recent alcohol use, non-…
Intersecting marginalized identities, multiple discrimination, depressive symptoms, and cannabis use among U.S. young adults, 2021–2024
This study examined intersecting marginalized identities (based on race/ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation), type-specific and multiple perceived discrimination (PD) prevalence, and associations with depressive symptoms and cannabis use among young adults. Data were from 3,888 U.S. respondents aged 19-30 in the Monitoring the Future (MTF) Panel study collected in 2021-2024. We estimated 12-month type-specific PD (gender, race/ethnicity, se…
Young Adult Substance Use as a Predictor of Poor Self-Rated Memory Decades Later in Midlife
ObjectivesWe examined longitudinal associations between young adult heavy substance use and late midlife poor self-rated memory and whether problematic substance use in early midlife mediated the associations.MethodsData were from the Monitoring the Future Longitudinal Panel Study. Analyses included individuals ages 50-65 in 2018-2023 who provided longitudinal data starting at age 18 in 1976-1991.ResultsYoung adult heavy use of all substances was…
Alcohol Use Disorder Symptoms Reported during Midlife
BACKGROUND: The extent to which adolescent substance use is associated with alcohol use disorder (AUD) symptoms in midlife is not yet fully explored. METHODS: graders (1976-1987) who were surveyed again at modal ages 50 (37.8%), 55 (46.3%), or 60 (15.8%) in 2008-2019. Approximately 48.7% were male; 81.5% identified as non-Hispanic White. Weighted logistic and multinomial logistic regressions were used to examine associations between past 30-day u…
Alcohol use and the Covid-19 pandemic
Among U.S. young and middle adults, deviations from expected historical trends in population alcohol use that occurred during the pandemic included decreases in alcohol use prevalence, increases in alcohol use frequency, and increases in the use of alcohol to relax/relieve tension and because of boredom. These shifts were likely due, in part, to drinking while alone and at home-which increased during the pandemic
U.S. adolescent alcohol use by race/ethnicity
Understanding racial/ethnic drinking patterns and service provision preferences is critical for deciding how best to use limited alcohol prevention, intervention, and treatment resources. We used nationally representative data from 150,727 U.S. high school seniors from 2005 to 2016 to examine differences in a range of alcohol use behaviors and the felt need to reduce or stop alcohol use based on detailed racial/ethnic categories, both before and …
Sleep and Substance Use among US Adolescents, 1991-2014
Among US secondary students, 7+ sleep/substance use associations were largely explained by individual deviance, psychosocial, and general health characteristics. Awareness and exploitation of these shared associations may be useful in improving substance use prevention and/or treatment efforts
Effects of tobacco-related media campaigns on smoking among 20–30-year-old adults
Continued support for sustained, public health-based well-funded anti-tobacco media campaigns may help reduce tobacco use among young adults
Relation between newspaper coverage of tobacco issues and smoking attitudes and behaviour among American teens
Gaining and keeping tobacco on the media agenda is an important tool for tackling youth smoking. As volume appears to be the driving factor, media advocacy may be best targeted towards generating events and highlighting issues likely to increase and sustain news attention
US Public Health Agency Involvement in Youth-Focused Illicit Drug Policy, Planning, and Prevention at the Local Level, 1999–2003
Objectives. We examined local public health agencies’ involvement in community illicit drug policy advocacy and provision related to youths to determine the extent to which public health agencies were involved in local drug policy activities and could potentially provide an infrastructure for policy alternatives. Methods. We conducted telephone interviews from 1999 to 2003 with 1793 US public health agencies in 804 communities surrounding schools…
Working to make an image
Only one early media campaign focused on issues other than tobacco, whereas subsequent campaigns have been specifically concerned with tobacco issues, and more targeted to opinion leaders. The size and timing of the advertising buys appeared to be strategically crafted to maximise advertising exposure for these population subgroups during critical threats to Philip Morris's public image
State Anti-Tobacco Advertising and Smoking Outcomes by Gender and Race/Ethnicity
The results from these analyses indicate that state anti-tobacco advertising significantly relates to beneficial outcomes -- especially regarding current smoking behaviour -- among US youth as a whole
Effect of Televised, Tobacco Company–Funded Smoking Prevention Advertising on Youth Smoking-Related Beliefs, Intentions, and Behavior
Objective. To relate exposure to televised youth smoking prevention advertising to youths’ smoking beliefs, intentions, and behaviors. Methods. We obtained commercial television ratings data from 75 US media markets to determine the average youth exposure to tobacco company youth-targeted and parent-targeted smoking prevention advertising. We merged these data with nationally representative school-based survey data (n = 103 172) gathered from 199…
Community and School Drug Prevention Strategy Prevalence
Appraisal of anti-smoking advertising by youth at risk for regular smoking
Youths in three different countries responded to anti-smoking advertisements in very similar ways, suggesting that such adverts might be more actively shared among nations. The appraisal of, and engagement with, the anti-smoking adverts, however, varied substantially depending on executional characteristics. In the design of effective anti-smoking adverts, due attention needs to be paid to those characteristics that appear to most engage youth ac…
Tobacco Industry Marketing at Point of Purchase After the 1998 MSA Billboard Advertising Ban
Point-of-purchase marketing has become increasingly important for the tobacco industry in the United States.1 In the wake of the 1998 master settlement agreement (MSA) that required tobacco advertising on billboards across the country to end on April 24, 1999, the point-of-purchase environment is likely to assume even greater importance in the industry's marketing efforts. One goal of the billboard advertising ban (as well as other MSA advertisin…
