- Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness of two preventive interventions to reduce heavy drinking in first- and second-year high school students.Design and setting: Cluster randomized controlled trial using four conditions for comparing two active interventions with a control group from 152 classes of 19 high schools in the Netherlands.Participants: A total of 3490 first-year high school students (mean 12.68 years, SD = 0.51) and their parents.Intervention conditions: (i) Parent intervention (modelled on the Swedish Örebro Prevention Program) aimed at encouraging parental rule-setting concerning their children's alcohol consumption; (ii) student intervention consisting of four digital lessons based on the principles of the theory of planned behaviour and social cognitive theory; (iii) interventions 1 and 2 combined; and (iv) the regular curriculum as control condition.Main outcome measures: Incidence of (heavy) weekly alcohol use and frequency of monthly drinking at 10 and 22 months after baseline measurement.Findings: A total of 2937 students were eligible for analyses in this study. At first follow-up, only the combined student–parent intervention showed substantial and statistically significant effects on heavy weekly drinking, weekly drinking and frequency of drinking. At second follow-up these results were replicated, except for the effects of the combined intervention on heavy weekly drinking. These findings were consistent across intention-to-treat and completers-only analyses.Conclusions: Results suggest that adolescents as well as their parents should be targeted in order to delay the onset of drinking, preferably prior to onset of weekly drinking.

- BACKGROUND: Previous research provides support for the existence of the psychopathy construct in youths. However, studies regarding the psychometric properties of psychopathy measures with ethnic minority youths are lacking.METHODS: In the present study, the three-factor structure of the Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory (YPI) was examined for both native Dutch youth (N=158) and an ethnic minority group, Moroccans (N=141), in an incarcerated adolescent population in the Netherlands.RESULTS: Our results showed that the three-factor structure of the YPI is comparable across an ethnic majority and an ethnic minority group in an incarcerated sample in the Netherlands. Moreover, associations between psychopathic traits and mental health problems were similar for both ethnic groups.CONCLUSION: The results support the cross-ethnic generalizability of the three-factor model of psychopathy as measured through the Youth Psychopathic Traits Inventory.

- In the present study precursors (risk behavior, parental self-efficacy and parental awareness) of parental worries about their child's behavior during adolescence (12-16 years) were examined. To this end, a new measure of parental worries about the child's involvement in risk behavior is developed. Second, the effect of parental worries on adolescents' alcohol use was tested and third whether ineffective alcohol-specific parenting mediated this effect. Longitudinal data including four waves from 703 parent-adolescent (M age = 12.2 years, SD = 0.5) dyads were used to conduct latent path and growth analysis in Mplus. Results showed that parental awareness, confidence in the effectiveness of their parenting practices and adolescent risk behavior at age 12 related to higher levels of worries in parents. Furthermore, more parental worries predicted an increase in adolescents' drinking (slope), yet worries did not predict the amount of drinking at age 12 (intercept). In addition, parental worries predicted less restrictive rule setting and a lower quality of communication. This ineffective parenting accounted for the effect of parental worries on adolescent alcohol use. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that worries about risk behavior of their child uniquely contribute to higher drinking rates due to less effective parenting. These findings implicate that alcohol interventions should provide parents with effective leads to tackle the drinking behavior in their children (e.g. strict rules about alcohol).
