This chapter investigates parental factors in offspring alcohol involvement in the families of the Joint Child Health Project (JCHP), a longitudinal study that has followed a 1969-1970 birth cohort on the east African island nation of Mauritius since 1972. We were particularly interested in whether parent-child gender played a role in these parent-child alcohol relationships. The analytic sample included 1,147 13-24-year-old offspring of the original JCHP birth cohort. Both child-and parent-rated parental drinking norms and behaviors were associated with child alcohol use and binge drinking. Parental predictors of offspring drinking differed for daughters and sons, with daughter alcohol involvement related to both mother and father alcohol-related factors, whereas son alcohol involvement was more associated with paternal factors. These results highlight the value of longitudinal, multi-informant family studies for eludicating how familial factors combine to influence drinking behaviors of younger generations during developmental periods when drinking and high-risk drinking typically emerge.
