Smoking Trajectories from Adolescence to Early Adulthood as a Longitudinal Predictor of Mental Health in Adulthood: Evidence from 21 Years of Nationally Representative Cohort Addiction published online (24 November 2021): DOI: 10.1111/add.15758.

Aims: To measure the prospective relationship between smoking trajectories from adolescence to young adulthood and mental health in later adulthood and test whether this relationship was mediated by concurrent co-use of alcohol and marijuana. Design: Longitudinal study using data drawn from Round 1 to Round 18 of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 (NLSY97), a nationally representative cohort study spanning 21 years. Measurements: Mental health in adulthood was measured using the five-item Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5; range 0-100) at Round 18. Seven trajectories of smoking from adolescence to young adulthood were identified by group-based multi-trajectory modeling, using data over 11 years from Round 1 to Round 11. Findings: Late-onset moderate smokers..., late-onset accelerated smokers..., early-onset heavy smokers..., and early-onset moderate smokers...showed poorer regression-adjusted mean MHI-5 scores in later adulthood than stable abstainers, even after controlling for baseline mental health and covariates. Whether or not a difference in MHI-5 scores was present between quitters and stable abstainers was inconclusive. The concurrent co-use of alcohol and marijuana in young adulthood significantly mediated the relationship between smoking trajectory and mental health. |

Longitudinal Trajectories of Perceived Body Weight: Adolescence to Early Adulthood American Journal of Health Behavior 36,2 (March 2012): 242-253.

OBJECTIVE:To examine longitudinal trajectories of perceived weight from adolescence to early adulthood by gender. METHODS: We analyzed 9 waves (1997-2005) of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (N = 8302) using Mplus. RESULTS: Perceived overweight increased over time among girls and did not level off until 23 years of age. Blacks had a lower perceived weight for their actual weight and a slower rate of increase in perceived weight than did whites. CONCLUSION: Intervention programs designed to prevent or reduce obesity should evaluate weight perceptions for both adolescents and young adults prior to implementing each intervention. |
