AIMS To investigate (1). whether aggressive and delinquent behaviour problems predict subsequent adolescent drinking behaviour; and (2). to what extent this association is mediated by alcohol expectancies and/or peer delinquency/substance use. METHODS 147 adolescents (approximately 15 years old) were interviewed with regard to their drinking behaviour. In addition, several self-rating questionnaires were given to gather information regarding the peers of these children. RESULTS As proposed…

Affective and personality risk and cognitive mediators of initial adolescent alcohol use.
OBJECTIVE This study examined the role of cognitive factors--such as expectancies regarding the consequences of not drinking and perceptions of peer drinking--in mediating affective and…
Positive alcohol expectancies partially mediate the relation between delinquent behavior and alcohol use: generalizability across age, sex, and race in a cohort of 85,000 Iowa schoolchildren.
TLDR
Evidence for moderated mediation was found for age and race but not for sex, which suggests that the magnitude of the relations among delinquency, positive alcohol expectancies, and alcohol involvement is different in younger versus older children and White, African American, Native American, Asian, and Hispanic youths but is similar in boys versus girls.
The effects of alcohol expectancies on drinking behaviour in peer groups: observations in a naturalistic setting.
TLDR
The findings indicate that among young adults observed in a peer group and naturalistic drinking setting, positive expectancies about the effects of alcohol and expectancies of alcohol on arousal are related positively to drinking level.
Peer Deviance, Alcohol Expectancies, and Adolescent Alcohol Use: Explaining Shared and Nonshared Environmental Effects Using an Adoptive Sibling Pair Design
TLDR
This study is one of few that has identified specific environmental variants of adolescent alcohol use while controlling for genetic influence and alcohol expectancies significantly explained nonshared environmental influence on alcohol use.
Impulsivity, peer influence, and adolescent substance use
Individuals in Western societies commonly begin to experiment with alcohol and/or cannabis during their adolescent years. Many experience negative consequences from the use of these substances and a…

A Test of Three Alternative Hypotheses Regarding the Effects of Early Delinquency on Adolescent Psychosocial Functioning and Substance Involvement
TLDR
Results showed that peer substance use was a direct positive predictor of problem use, and supported the tenability of a partial mediation model that included mediating pathways and a direct effect of delinquency on alcohol use, as hypothesized by developmental psychopathology.

Alcohol outcome expectancies and drinking motives mediate the association between sensation seeking and alcohol use among adolescents.
The relationships between alcohol-aggression proneness, general alcohol expectancies, hazardous drinking, and alcohol-related violence in adult male prisoners
TLDR
The hypothesized model was that alcohol expectancies and hazardous drinking would mediate the relationship between proneness to alcohol- related aggression and alcohol-related violence and the model was empirically supported.

Self-reported drinking and alcohol-related problems among early adolescents: dimensionality and validity over 24 months.
TLDR
Researchers can have some confidence in the reliability and validity of early adolescents' survey self-reports, particularly of alcohol consumption, because drinking/drunkenness and alcohol-related problems shared 30% of their variance.
Alcohol Expectancy Theory and the Identification of High-Risk Adolescents
TLDR
Data from a 3-year longitudinal study indicates that expectancy assessment may contribute to the identification of individual high-risk adolescents before drinking onset, and experimental manipulation of expectancies can produce significant drinking reductions in heavy-drinking college students.

The goal of this chapter is to examine the links between three constructs of potential predictive and clinical significance for the development of adolescent delinquent behavior: (1) early childhood…
The importance of a positive family history of alcoholism, parental rejection and emotional warmth, behavioral problems and peer substance use for alcohol problems in teenagers: a path analysis.
TLDR
The data indicate that alcohol problems in the offspring are associated with several domains of influence in their environment and Prospective studies measuring both biological and environmental factors using sufficient sample sizes will be needed for optimal understanding of the development ofalcohol problems in youth.
Characteristics of children of alcoholics: putative risk factors, substance use and abuse, and psychopathology.
TLDR
There were few Gender X Family History interactions; the effects of family history of alcoholism were similar for men and women and when gender effects were found, they showed greater family history effects for women.
Disinhibition and expectancy in risk for alcohol use: comparing black and white college samples.
TLDR
Results provide support for the validity of the acquired preparedness model, and psychosocial learning appears to mediate the influence of disinhibition on drinking for both groups.
Alcohol outcome expectancies and alcohol use: a latent variable cross-lagged panel study.
TLDR
Conceptually, and Methodologically, these findings indicate both an etiologic role for EXP in predicting future alcohol use, and the influence of alcohol consumption on the development and maintenance of EXP.
Patterns of Use and Their Relationship to DSM-IV Abuse and Dependence of Alcohol among Adolescents and Young Adults
TLDR
There is however only a moderate association between average number of standard drinks consumed with the risk of developing abuse and dependence, and in light of the substantial rates among adolescents and young adults the validity of DSM-IV alcohol disorder criteria is discussed.
Parental monitoring and peer influences on adolescent substance use.
TLDR
Poorly monitored adolescents are more likely to use drugs, and drug-using adolescents seek out like-minded friends, once an adolescent associates with drug- using peers, his or her own substance use approaches their level.
Parental alcohol use disorders and alcohol use and disorders in offspring: a community study
TLDR
Although the association between maternal and paternal alcohol use disorders and non-problematical drinking in offspring was minimal, there was a strong effect for the transition to hazardous use and for alcohol abuse and dependence; the effect of parental concordance for transition into hazardous use was particularly striking.
