In fact, if one considered just three factors (maternal education, maternal prenatal
alcohol or tobacco, and marital status) one could
predict to a high degree postneonatal mortality: children born to unmarried women with lower education and evidence
of prenatal drug
use had a postneonatal mortality
of about 30 per 1000 live births (similar to Ivory Coast); children born to women with none
of these risk factors had a postneonatal mortality
of about 2 per 1000 live births (similar to Norway); that is, children in this latter category almost never die despite evidence from PRAMS surveys that they are as likely to co-sleep with their parents.

Baseline drinking status (ever vs never tried
alcohol) did not
predict attrition, but to account for attrition bias related to other variables, estimation was carried out after multiple imputation
using the standard missing at random assumption (ie, missing data are assumed missing at random conditional on observed predictors included in the model).27 The imputation model included all the predictors in the
alcohol models plus a number
of auxiliary variables that were not
of direct theoretical interest but were nonetheless predictive
of missingness so as to improve the quality
of the imputations and make the missing at random assumption more plausible.28
Older men with substance
use disorders are at greater risk for nonfatal attempts and for death by suicide than are younger persons.10, 11 Past suicide attempts are a strong risk factor for subsequent suicidal behaviors in those with substance
use disorders.12 Depressed mood is a risk factor for suicidal behaviors in the general population and also
predicts a greater likelihood
of suicide in those with
alcohol or drug
use disorders.3, 6,10 The link between depression and suicidal behaviors in those with substance
use disorders may be particularly strong given the high comorbidity between mood and substance
use disorders.13 Although it has not been examined thoroughly, independent mood disorders and substance - induced mood disorders are likely to confer risk for suicide.

Not only can symptoms be distressing, AUD can trigger a cascade
of lifelong adverse outcomes, such as: other mental disorders, suicide, serious unintentional injury, illicit drug
use, antisocial behaviour, as well as early onset
of heart disease, stroke and cancer.3 While the peak age for the onset for AUD is 18 — 24 years, the factors that
predict the transition from
alcohol use to AUD symptom onset and from symptom onset to diagnosable AUD remain largely unknown.

used a longitudinal design to test whether the interaction between internalizing and externalizing symptoms in early adolescence (11 — 12 years old)
predicted adolescent
alcohol and drug
use (a composite
of cigarette, marijuana, and other illicit SU) 2 years later (Scalco et al. 2014).
Finally, because negative marital quality may
predict increased
alcohol use rather than the reverse, we estimated an APIM in which actor negative marital quality, partner negative marital quality, gender, and all possible two - way and three - way interactions were included as predictors
of average drinks per week in Wave 2, controlling for average drinks per week in Wave 1.

The objectives were (1) to document the prevalence

predicted that women's perceptions

of alcohol use, and the timing
of this protective effect depends on the co-occurrence

of alcohol use).
