SDRG Research Brief: Adult-Supervised Drinking During Adolescence Predicts Alcohol Misuse in Adulthood

The Social Development Research Group (SDRG) periodically highlights our publications through a Research Brief. Our goal for this series is to share important research findings and draw attention to the outstanding work being done by SDRG researchers.

This brief describes results of a study that examined the relationship between parent-supervised drinking during adolescence and alcohol misuse in adulthood among people in the United States and Australia. The study found that that the more often teens drank in a supervised setting, the more likely they were as adults to report more alcohol use, including problematic use. For more details on this study, our research brief can be viewed here:
