Funded Activity Summary

Although young adulthood is a time of high alcohol problems, there is cross-national variation in rates of problems and policy responses. This project will survey age 24 adults in Washington State in the USA in 2013-14 that were initially recruited in 2002 (aged 13) and annually resurveyed at ages 14 and 15. The sample has been matched to enable comparison of behaviours and longitudinal influences to an equivalent longitudinal cohort being followed in Victoria, Australia (Combined N = 1,556).
