Abstract

Females who are involved with the juvenile justice system as adolescents are at risk for heavy alcohol use, which is associated with an increased risk of recidivism and negative health outcomes. Alcohol use peaks during emerging adulthood and intimate partners play an increasingly important role in decision making during this developmental period. Using data from a longitudinal study of females who were involved in the juvenile justice system as adolescents (n = 80), we investigated whether intimate partner encouragement of alcohol use is associated with higher rates of alcohol use frequency among this population as they enter emerging adulthood. Participants reported on their partners' encouragement of their alcohol use at an in-person study visit when they were emerging adults, and then reported on their own alcohol use approximately six months later. A negative binomial regression was fit to the data and estimated that for each standard deviation increase in reported intimate partner encouragement of alcohol use, participants' rate of alcohol consumption increased by 109% six months later. These findings indicate that intimate partner encouragement of alcohol use may be a risk factor for heavy drinking among emerging adult females with a history of chronic and severe delinquency. These findings have implications for prevention, as they indicate a need to measure intimate partner encouragement of alcohol use in studies that involve high-risk emerging adult females and may suggest that intimate partners should be included in interventions intended to reduce heavy alcohol use.

亲密伴侣鼓励饮酒与曾参与少年司法系统的女性饮酒之间的关系。
青少年时期参与少年司法系统的女性面临大量饮酒的风险,这与累犯风险增加和负面健康后果有关。酒精使用高峰出现在成年初期,亲密伴侣在这一发展时期的决策中发挥着越来越重要的作用。利用一项对青少年时期参与少年司法系统的女性(n = 80)进行的纵向研究的数据,我们调查了亲密伴侣鼓励饮酒是否与该人群进入初成年期时更高的酒精使用频率有关。参与者报告了当他们刚成年时,他们的伴侣鼓励他们喝酒,然后在大约六个月后报告他们自己的饮酒情况。对数据进行负二项回归,并估计每增加一个标准偏差,报告的亲密伴侣鼓励饮酒,参与者的饮酒率在六个月后增加109%。这些发现表明,亲密伴侣鼓励饮酒可能是有慢性和严重犯罪史的新成年女性大量饮酒的一个危险因素。这些发现对预防具有意义,因为它们表明有必要在涉及高风险新成年女性的研究中衡量亲密伴侣鼓励饮酒的情况,并可能建议应将亲密伴侣纳入旨在减少大量饮酒的干预措施中。
