Methods: The study used a multivariate logistic regression longitudinal analysis. The effects of parental and young adult alcohol use and family environment on school behavioral problems were estimated over 20 years from 1984 to 2004. Sample: Data were drawn from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Youth (NLSY79), a representative sample of the general population of the United States, and the surveys of Mother-Child and Young Adults (MCYA): mothers (N = 5634), fathers (N = 5007) and young adults (N = 4648). Results: Parental alcohol misuse increased the risk of alcohol misuse in offspring. There was a threefold rise in school behavior problems among youth from family environments in which the biological father was a heavy drinker and the marital quality of the biological parents was reported as poor and the home life was characterized by high conflict, argumentativeness, disruption and ineffectual parental monitoring as well as by low family cohesion.
