Weighted Family History Density of Substance Use: Influence on Participant Substance Use Onset, Duration, and Escalation by Litteral CA, Martel MM, Mattingly DT, Moore JX

“…Future research should use longitudinal studies to establish causal relationships and explore interactions between WFHD and other risk factors, such as environmental stressors, epigenetic changes, or genetic markers.Plain Language Summary: &#x2003Why This Study Was Done: People with family members who have experienced alcohol or drug problems are at a higher risk of developing substance use problems themselves. This study measures that risk using Weighted Family History Density (WFHD), which considers how many close and extended family members have struggled with substance use.What the Study Found: Using data from over 36,000 adults in the National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions-III (NESARC-III), we explored whether higher WFHD is linked to earlier onset, longer duration, and faster escalation to peak substance use. …”
