The transition to parenthood, opportunity to drink, drinking, and alcohol use disorder
2022, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :This measure was time-varying and switched from 0 to 1 in the year when the respondent first met diagnostic criteria for any other disorder and stayed 1 until the respondent was censored from the model. We combined measures from the CVFS registry system (Axinn et al., 2012) and LHCs (Axinn et al., 1999) to construct complete lifetime marital and childbearing histories for each respondent. We treated marital experiences as four time-varying measures: never married, ever married, ever widowed, or ever divorced.
