Role of Early Childhood Behavior Problems and Initiating Gateway Substance Use Presented: San Francisco, CA, American Society of Criminology Conference, November 2000 Cohort(s): Children of the NLSY79, NLSY79 Young Adult Publisher: American Society of Criminology Keyword(s): Behavior Problems Index (BPI); Children, Behavioral Development; Modeling, Growth Curve/Latent Trajectory Analysis; Peers/Peer influence/Peer relations; Substance Use Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The paper will use data from the Children of the National Longitudinal Study of Young Women to examine longitudinal patterns in initiating substance use and the role early childhood problems (e.g., ADHD, conduct disorder) pay in this process. Patterns of initiating can be observed from approximately age 10 to 18 with assessments of early childhood behaviors prior to age 10. problems can be juxtaposed against maternal behavior, school behaviors, peer association and other social indicators for individual and family. Latent growth models are used to model the patterns and associations among variables. |
