“…Organised leisure activities, usually adult guided, are considered effective in reducing the risks of adolescents' involvement in alcohol use [40,41] while unorganised socialising with peers, often defined as going out with friends, is found to be associated with a higher prevalence of alcohol use [42–44]. In a recent study of Czech adolescents, unorganised socialising with peers had a significant effect on alcohol consumption among adolescents, that is, a decline in the frequency of going out with friends explained a major part of a decline in alcohol use [45].…”

Aim To (i) examine several factors associated with trends in heavy episodic drinking (HED) in Finland, Norway and Sweden, (ii) investigate similarities in these associations across the countries and (iii) analyse the contribution of these factors to the trend in HED and the differences across the countries. Design and Setting Observational study using five waves of the European School Survey Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs (ESPAD) from Finland, Norway and Sweden between 1999 and 2015. Participants A total of 18 128 male and 19 121 female 15‐ to 16‐year‐old students. Measurements Monthly HED, perceived access to alcohol, truancy, parental control, leisure time activities and daily smoking. The Cochran–Armitage test was used to examine linear time trends in HED. Logit regression models using the Karlson–Holm–Breen (KHB) method were fitted for each country separately, including all the independent variables together with time and adjusted for family status, parental education and gender. Findings In Finland, Norway and Sweden, perceived access to alcohol, truancy and daily smoking decreased significantly between 1999 and 2015 whereas risk perceptions, parental control and participation in sports increased in the same period. The confounding percentage of all the independent variables related to the trend in HED was 48.8%, 68.9% and 36.7% for Finland, Norway and Sweden, respectively. Decline in daily smoking (P < 0.001) and perceived access to alcohol (P < 0.001) were positively and increase in parental control (P < 0.001) negatively associated with the decline in HED in all three countries. Changes in truancy, going out with friends, and engaging in sports and other hobbies had little or no impact on the decline in HED or displayed no consistent results across the countries. Conclusions The decline in adolescent heavy episodic drinking in Finland, Norway and Sweden between 1999 and 2015 appears to be associated with a decline in adolescent daily smoking and perceived access to alcohol and an increase in parental control.

“…The role of protective factors in the adoption and persistence of problem behaviors has been shown in many previous studies. Family, as an important source of these protective factors, was shown to be associated with lower rates of different forms of problem behavior, e.g., substance use, aggressive behavior or school-related outcomes in adolescents with, as well as without, SA [ 17 , 18 ]. Moreover, a recent review of longitudinal studies on EIU identified family factors as one of the main predictors associated with EIU [ 19 ].…”

Youth subculture affiliation (SA) appears to be an important risk factor with regard to adolescents’ problem behavior. Excessive Internet use (EIU) has emerged as a new type of problem behavior; however, it has not yet been studied in adolescents affiliated with youth subcultures. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the association between SA and EIU and to explore the role of selected protective factors. We used data from the Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study conducted in 2014 in Slovakia. The final sample for this study comprised 532 adolescents (mean age: 15.4; 49.6% boys). Hierarchical linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the associations of EIU with SA. Adolescents with SA were more likely to report EIU. Adjustment for protective factors decreased the association between EIU and SA. From all tested interactions, only the interaction of SA with family support was found to be significant. The relationship between family support and EIU was mediated via Monitoring by the mother only in adolescents without SA. Our findings imply that the risk of EIU is higher in adolescents with SA. There was a difference in how protective factors worked in adolescents with and without SA.

“…El monitoreo parental ha sido identificado como el factor de funcionamiento familiar más consistentemente asociado con el consumo de alcohol en adolescentes (Moore et al, 2010), pues desalienta el consumo (Latendresse et al, 2017), previene y retrasa el inicio de consumo de alcohol en los adolescentes (Beck et al, 2004;Jang et al, 2013b;Moore et al, 2010). A mayor monitoreo, menor es el consumo (Koning et al, 2014), y el monitoreo de la madre es un factor protector más potente que el del padre (Tomcikova et al, 2013).…”
