Adverse and advantageous childhood experiences (ACEs and counter-ACEs) during adolescence are understudied. This study examined how childhood experiences affect youth tobacco/alcohol use. Participants included 489 U.S. adolescents (baseline 10–13 years; 51% female) from the first five waves of the Flourishing Families Project. Results of the cross-lagged model showed ACEs were predictive of early tobacco use only. Counter-ACEs in wave two and wave three predicted, respectively, decreased tobacco and decreased alcohol use in the following wave. Counter-ACEs were also correlated with reduced alcohol and tobacco use in later waves. These findings indicate the salience of counter-ACEs over ACEs in persistent and late adolescent substance use, though ACEs may be important to consider to prevent very early initiation of tobacco.

The multiple risk factors for alcohol use (AU) and alcohol use disorders (AUDs) are interrelated through poorly understood pathways, many of which begin in childhood. In this report, the authors seek to develop an empirical, broad-based developmental model for the etiology of AU and AUDs in men. We assessed 15 risk factors in four developmental tiers in 1,794 adult male twins from the Virginia population based twin registry. The best fitting model explained 39% of the variance in late adolescent AU, and 30% of the liability to lifetime symptoms of AUD. AU and AUDs can be best understood as arising from the action and interaction of two pathways reflecting externalizing genetic/temperamental and familial/social factors. Peer group deviance was important in each pathway. Internalizing symptoms played a more minor role. Familial/social factors were especially important influences on AU, while genetic/temperamental factors were more critical for AUDs. We conclude that AU and AUDs in men are complex traits influenced by genetic, family, temperamental, and social factors, acting and interacting over developmental time.

A review of recent, pertinent literature was conducted on the extent and nature of alcohol-related behavior among Hispanic adolescents. Problems related to the available literature included a lack of differentiation of major Hispanic subgroups, small and non-random samples and an over-emphasis on illicit drugs which tended to divert attention from drinking behavior. Onset and prevalence data indicated patterns of use somewhat similar to the general population. Most interesting, however, was the pattern of poly-substance abuse which develops early in adolescence and persists into the late adolescent years among both Hispanics and other youths. Further, problems related to alcohol use are evident among Hispanic youths. The literature indicated some relationship between alcohol use and family and peer factors.

Abstract Introduction Abundant evidence from animal models implicates the circadian system in modulating the brain’s reward circuitry, but evidence in humans has been more limited. In particular, published evidence has relied on self-report and/or behavioral proxies of circadian misalignment and cross-sectional designs. Here, we employed objective measures and a prospective design to assess whether circadian alignment predicts the neural response to reward in a sample of late adolescent drinkers. Methods Participants included 23 late adolescents (18–22 y/o; 14 females) reporting weekly alcohol use. Participants completed pre-weekend (Thursday) circadian phase assessments via the dim light melatonin onset (DLMO). Sleep-wake timing was assessed via wrist actigraphy (midpoint of sleep on Tuesday and Wednesday prior to DLMO assessment). Circadian alignment was operationalized as the DLMO-midsleep interval. Neural response to reward was assessed via a card-guessing monetary reward fMRI task; analyzed on reward anticipation and reward win relative to neutral conditions. Mean BOLD signal was extracted from two regions-of-interest (striatum and medial prefrontal cortex, mPFC) for analyses in regression models, accounting for sex and scan order (participants also completed scans on Monday in counterbalanced order, not reported here). Results Shorter DLMO-midsleep intervals (i.e., greater misalignment) predicted lower striatal response to anticipated reward (beta=0.48,p=0.02) and showed a trend towards predicting lower mPFC response to anticipated reward (beta=0.39,p=0.06). No statistically-significant effects were found for reward win. Notably, a lower striatal response to anticipated reward correlated with more binge-drinking episodes in the past 30 days, but was not associated with alcohol use in the weekend immediately following the scan. Conclusion Our findings provide preliminary evidence of proximal associations between objectively-determined circadian alignment and the neural response to anticipated monetary reward. Ongoing work in a larger sample of adolescents aims to replicate this finding and more definitively determine its relevance to adolescent drinking. Support This work was supported by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (R21 AA023209; R01 AA025626).
