We extended this by investigating outcomes in a population based sample of adolescents.
An online survey was developed for administration to a community based sample of adolescents living in Australia, aged 11 17 years.
In this study we have investigated the sources of help adolescents approached before and after an episode of DSH and the barriers to seeking help based on information collected in a large community based sample of adolescents.
The present study also has several strengths, particularly regarding the large population based sample of adolescents and the high participation rate which might offer an opportunity to generalise the results to other adolescent populations as well.
This study investigates school adjustment, reported by a population based sample of adolescents, in relation to alcohol use reported by parents, while controlling for possible confounding or mediating psychosocial factors.
The goal of our study was to estimate genetic and environmental influences using a multi-informant design with responses from a population-based sample of adolescent twins, their mothers and their fathers (N = 1394 families).
The objective of this study was to examine the underlying factorial architecture of lifetime DSM-IV alcohol use disorder (AUD) criteria in a population-based sample of adolescent and emerging adult female twins who had ever used alcohol (n = 2832; aged 18 25 years), and to determine whether thresholds and factor loadings differed by age.
The aims of this study are to examine: The prevalence of alcohol, cigarette and marijuana use in a UK population-based sample of adolescent twins.
In our population-based sample of adolescent twins, we observed significant associations between dimensions of the DBD phenotype and polymorphisms in the candidate genes 5-HTT and MAO-A, as well as with platelet MAO-B activity.
Working with genetic-founder populations, some GWAS-based studies revealed genome-wide hits in relatively small samples; in the Saguenay Youth Study, genetic variations in the KCTD8 region were associated with brain size in a community-based sample of adolescent girls (rs716890, P = 5.40 × 10−9); (Paus et al. 2012).
