School programs significantly reduce teen drinking. Parental acceptance of alcohol use increases adolescent alcohol consumption, but school-based prevention education can moderate this effect.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Adolescent Health
- Substance Abuse Prevention
Background:
- Parental permissiveness is a known risk factor for adolescent alcohol use.
- School-based programs are implemented to prevent adolescent substance use.
- The moderating role of school programs on parental influence requires further investigation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To examine the moderating effect of school-based alcohol prevention education.
- To investigate the relationship between parental permissiveness and adolescent alcohol use.
- To assess the impact of school prevention programs on adolescent alcohol consumption.
Main Methods:
- Utilized data from the 20th Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (N=54,653).
- Analyzed individual-level data (parental permissiveness, demographics) and group-level data (school prevention education).
- Employed statistical methods to assess moderation effects.
Main Results:
- Parental permissiveness showed a positive association with adolescent alcohol use.
- School-based prevention education was linked to reduced adolescent alcohol use.
- School programs explained significant between-school variations, confirming their moderating role.
Conclusions:
- School-based alcohol prevention education plays a crucial moderating role.
- Strengthening school prevention programs is vital for healthy adolescent development.
- Interventions should consider both parental factors and school-based strategies.
