Abstract Background Alcohol problems in parents have been revealed to affect adolescent alcohol misuse. However, few studies examine the effects of parental drinking on adolescent risky drinking (including binge drinking) in the general population. In particular, previous study findings are inconsistent regarding the influence of parental drinking according to parental composition. In this study, we aimed to examine the relationship between parental drinking, according to parental composition, and binge drinking among high school students in Japan. Methods We performed a secondary analysis of the Nationwide High School Survey on Drug Use and Lifestyle 2018, Japan. A total of 46,848 valid surveys from high school students of 78 schools were included for analysis. Logistic regression analysis with a generalized linear mixed model was conducted with binge drinking as the dependent variable and “parental drinking according to parental composition” (e.g., father’s drinking, mother’s drinking, father’s absence, mother’s absence, both parents drinking, and neither parent at home) as the independent variable, after adjusting with covariates. Binge drinking was defined as five or more alcoholic drinks for male adolescents or four or more alcoholic drinks for females on the same occasion within two hours. Results In the fully adjusted models, adolescents whose mothers drink (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 1.50, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06–2.12) were significantly associated with adolescent binge drinking. This risk was significantly higher among students with neither parent living at home (AOR: 4.35, 95% CI: 2.10–9.02). Conclusion Parental drinking and absence do affect adolescent binge drinking; our findings show that adolescents are more likely to engage in binge drinking if their mothers drink or if they are not living with either parent. Therefore, it is important to engage parents and non-parental family members in future programs and interventions to prevent adolescent binge drinking.

Abstract Background:Alcohol problems in parents have been revealed as one factor affecting adolescent alcohol misuse, but there are few studies on how parental drinking affects adolescent alcohol misuse in the general population. The findings of previous studies are inconsistent with respect to the influence of parental drinking according to parental structure. Binge drinking among adolescents has received much attention. In this study, we aimed to examine the relationship between parental drinking in parents and binge drinking among high school students in Japan.Methods:We performed a secondary analysis of the Nationwide High School Survey on Drug Use and Lifestyle 2018, Japan. A total of 46,848 valid surveys from high school students of 78 schools were included for analysis. Logistic regression analysis was conducted with binge drinking as the dependent variable. We established nine groups, classified according to parental drinking by parental structure (e.g., both parents, single parent, neither parent at home) as the independent variable, after adjusting with demographic factors and lifestyle factors as covariates. Binge drinking was defined as five or more alcoholic drinks for male adolescents or four or more alcoholic drinks for females on the same occasion within 2 hours. Results: In the fully adjusted models, the risk of binge drinking in adolescents whose parents do not drink (adjusted odds ratio (AOR): 0.541, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.411–0.711) and whose father drinks but mother does not (AOR: 0.696, 95% CI: 0.575–0.844) were significantly lower than that in adolescents whose parents drink. This risk was significantly higher among students with neither parent living at home (AOR: 3.746, 95% CI: 2.290–6.127). Conclusion:Our findings suggest that adolescents whose parents do not drink and whose father drinks but mother does not are less likely to engage in binge drinking. Adolescents who did not live with either parent may have greater risk of binge drinking. This research revealed that parental drinking affects binge drinking among adolescents in the general population. Engaging parents, including mothers and non-parental family members, in future programs and interventions is important, to prevent adolescent alcohol misuse.

AbstractTo investigate sex differences in associations between sexual violence victimization (SVV), sexual violence perpetration (SVP), and binge drinking and/or alcohol problems among high school students. While SVV has been linked to problem alcohol use among young women, little research has addressed the unique associations of SVV and SVP on alcohol use/problems within both sexes. A cross-sectional analysis of 16,992 high school students’ self-reports of past-year SVP and SVV was used where SVV/SVP was defined by three tactics (sexual coercion, drug/alcohol-facilitated or incapacitated sex, and physically forced sex). Alcohol measures included past-month binge drinking and past-year alcohol problems. Rates of SVV were twice as high in females (21.2% vs. 13.3%), and SVP rates were twice as high in males (10.9% vs. 5.2%). SVV and SVP were each associated with an increased rate of current binge drinking and problem alcohol use for both sexes, across increasing numbers of SV tactics and within each of three tactics. After controlling for demographic and other risk factors including SVP, drug/alcohol-facilitated or incapacitated SVV was more strongly linked to binge drinking and alcohol problems among females. SVP was more strongly linked to binge drinking and alcohol problems among males (adjusting for SVV and other covariates). No sex differences emerged in associations between coerced or physically forced SVV/SVP and alcohol-related outcomes. Both SVV and SVP are associated with an increased likelihood of binge drinking and alcohol problems for males and females. Important sex differences emerged when SV tactics are considered.

The current study investigated resilience factors influencing the associations between binge drinking and measures of educational participation among Canadian youth. Self-reported data were collected during the 2016/2017 school year from 5238 students in Grades 9 through 12 (2744 females, 2494 males) attending 14 secondary schools in Ontario and British Columbia as part of the COMPASS study. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine relationships between binge drinking, school connectedness and flourishing on measures of educational participation. Binge drinking was associated with increased likelihood of skipping classes, going to class without completing homework, lower Math and English scores, and having educational and/or training expectations and aspirations beyond high school only. Decreased flourishing was linked to increased likelihood of going to class with incomplete homework, lower Math and English scores, and decreased likelihood of aspiring and expecting to achieve education and/or training beyond high school only. Increased school connectedness was associated with decreased likelihood of skipping classes and going to class with incomplete homework, higher Math and English scores, and increased the likelihood of aspiring to and expecting to achieve education and/or training beyond high school only. Lower flourishing was additive in its effect on current binge drinking in negatively impacting class attendance and homework completion and academic performance, while higher school connectedness was compensatory in its effect on these outcomes. This study suggests that, for high school students who are susceptible to binge drinking, those who are more connected to school and have a higher sense of wellbeing can maintain active participation in school and achieve their educational goals.

To better understand the optimal frequency of parent-adolescent alcohol-specific communication, we conducted a secondary analysis of the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse Culture of High School Survey, a 2010 nationally representative online survey of 1000 high school students. Logistic regression models assessed the relationship between alcohol-specific communication and adolescent perceptions ( binge drinking is very dangerous, drinking is cool, and getting drunk is very dangerous), adjusting for grade, sex, race, personal and peer alcohol use, and parental monitoring. Among adolescents reporting personal and peer alcohol use, a dose-response relationship existed between frequency of alcohol-specific communication and thinking binge drinking is very dangerous (often [adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 7.98; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.98-21.36], sometimes (AOR = 6.08; 95% CI = 2.36-15.69), rarely (AOR = 5.27; 95% CI = 1.95-14.26) vs never), and was also associated with decreased perceptions that drinking is cool (often [AOR = 0.22; 95% CI = 0.08-0.66), rarely vs never [AOR = 0.17; 95% CI = 0.06-0.51]); the inverse was true for never-drinkers without peer use.

Communication is the most important thing in life. Communication is an interaction between one person and one or more people. This study will focus on interpersonal communication that occurs between mother and child in building self-confidence. The character of a child is determined by a mother, because of the closeness of a mother while at home. Child time with mother at home is much more than father. Therefore, the nature of a child is completely passed on by the mother. A mother's love and concern greatly affect a child's self-confidence. The mother communicates with her child so that the child feels happy and comfortable. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques by means of semi-structured interviews with mothers and children who are high school students. This research shows that the closeness between the child and the mother is not determined by gender. Mothers have a crucial role in making children appear confident. You do this by reminding children to be themselves, supporting children's hobbies, inviting intensive communication, reprimanding without violence, and creating a comfortable atmosphere at home.Komunikasi merupakan hal yang terpenting dalam kehidupan. Komunikasi merupakan interaksi antara satu orang dengan satu orang atau lebih. Penelitian ini akan memfokuskan pada komunikasi antarpribadi yang terjadi antara ibu dengan anak dalam membangun rasa percaya diri. Karakter seorang anak ditentukan oleh seorang ibu, karena adanya kedekatan seorang ibu selama berada di rumah. Waktu anak dengan ibu di rumah jauh lebih banyak daripada seorang ayah. Oleh karena itu, sifat seorang anak sepenuhnya diturunkan oleh ibu. Kasih sayang dan rasa perhatian seorang ibu sangat mempengaruhi rasa percaya diri anak. Ibu  berkomunikasi pada anaknya agar anak merasa senang dan nyaman. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data dengan cara wawancara semiterstruktur pada ibu dan anak yang merupakan siswa SMA. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa, kedekatan antara anak dan ibu tidak ditentukan oleh jenis kelamin. Ibu memiliki peran krusial dalam membuat anak tampil percaya diri. Caranya dengan mengingatkan anak untuk menjadi diri sendiri, mendukung hobi anak, mengajak berkomunikasi secara intensif, menegur tanpa kekerasan, serta menciptakan suasana yang nyaman di rumah.
