Early Alcohol Use and Timing of Sexual and Reproductive Onset Ph.D. Dissertation, School of Education, Indiana University, 2016 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Keyword(s): Age at First Birth; Age at First Intercourse; Alcohol Use; Gender Differences Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This dissertation is the first-known study to document associations between timing of first alcohol use and onset of sex and reproduction in males, including examination of differences by respondent sex. Using Problem Behavior Theory (PBT) as a guiding framework, survival analyses were conducted to examine relationships between age at first drink of alcohol and ages at first sex and first childbirth, and transition from first sex to childbirth. Data were drawn from 8,984 males and females from the National Longitudinal Study of Youth 1997 (NLSY97), a nationally-representative sample of respondents born between 1980-1984. |
