The central goal of the proposed project is to test the mediating role of marital functioning on the relation between parental alcoholism and adolescent/young adult offspring drug use/abuse. Research shows that spouses of alcoholics are at increased risk for marital problems, and that children of dysfunctional marriages are at increased risk for drug use/abuse; however, this mediator model has not been tested. Two secondary goals of this project are to test: (a) the longitudinal and reciprocal relations between trajectories of spouses' alcohol use/abuse and marital functioning; and (b) the family and parenting processes that account for the relation between parents' marital functioning and offspring drug use/abuse. These goals will make important contributions to drug use/abuse theory and help to identify appropriate family variables for substance use prevention and intervention programs. These goals will be accomplished using five waves of data from an ongoing study of substance use and abuse in children of alcoholics and nonalcoholic controls that began in 1988, and will be tested using advanced statistical techniques including latent curve and hierarchical linear modeling. Families were recruited from community sources, and DSM-111 alcoholism diagnoses were obtained via face-to-face interviews with the parents. The mean age of these children at Wave 1 was 12.5 years, 24% were Hispanic, and 46% were female.

该项目的中心目标是测试婚姻功能对父母酗酒与青少年/青年后代吸毒/滥用之间关系的中介作用。研究表明，酗酒者的配偶出现婚姻问题的风险更高，婚姻不正常的孩子吸毒/滥用药物的风险也更高；然而，这个中介模型尚未经过测试。该项目的两个次要目标是测试：(a) 配偶饮酒/滥用行为轨迹与婚姻功能之间的纵向和相互关系； (b) 家庭和养育过程，说明父母的婚姻功能与后代吸毒/滥用之间的关系。这些目标将为药物使用/滥用理论做出重要贡献，并有助于确定药物使用预防和干预计划的适当家庭变量。这些目标将使用 1988 年开始的一项针对酗酒者和非酒精对照儿童的药物使用和滥用持续研究的五波数据来实现，并将使用先进的统计技术（包括潜在曲线和分层线性模型）进行测试。从社区来源招募家庭，并通过与父母面对面访谈获得 DSM-111 酗酒诊断。第一波这些儿童的平均年龄为 12.5 岁，其中 24% 是西班牙裔，46% 是女性。
