Abstract：
Family history (FH+) of substance use disorder (SUD) is an established risk factor for offspring SUD. The extent to which offspring psychological traits or the family environment, each of which may be relevant to familial transmission of SUD risk, vary by FH+ in socioeconomically disadvantaged populations is less clear. We compared the family/social environmental and psychological characteristics of 73 FH+ and 69 FH- youth ages 12-16, from a study of parental criminal justice system involvement in a primarily low-income, minority urban population. A latent profile analysis (LPA) empirically identified groups of subjects with similar psychological characteristics, which were then compared by FH+. FH+ youths were found to have greater mean household size, greater parental psychological aggression, and a higher mean number of adverse childhood experiences, even without considering parental SUD. FH+ individuals had lower report card grades according to parental report and were more likely to have a history of externalizing disorders than FH- individuals. However, FH+ was not significantly associated with many psychological characteristics or with the class membership from the LPA. In conclusion, among a population of low-income, minority urban youth, FH+ was associated with differences in the family environment and only subtle differences in individual psychological characteristics.
摘要：
物质使用障碍（SUD）的家族史（FH）是后代SUD的既定危险因素。后代心理特征或家庭环境的程度，每个都可能与SUD风险的家族性传播有关，在社会经济弱势群体中，FH+的变化不太清楚。我们比较了73名FH+和69名FH-12-16岁青年的家庭/社会环境和心理特征，这是一项关于父母刑事司法系统参与主要低收入人群的研究，少数民族城市人口。潜在轮廓分析(LPA)根据经验确定了具有相似心理特征的受试者群体，然后用FH+进行比较。发现FH+青年的平均家庭规模更大，更大的父母心理攻击，和更高的平均数量的不良童年经历，即使不考虑父母SUD。根据父母的报告，FH个体的报告卡等级较低，并且比FH个体更可能有外化障碍病史。然而,FH与许多心理特征或LPA的类成员没有显着相关。总之,在低收入人群中，少数民族城市青年,FH与家庭环境的差异有关，仅与个体心理特征的细微差别有关。
