Abstract

This study examines the influence of adolescent age of onset on the development of substance use disorders (SUD) by comparing adult males (n = 181) with SUD categorized into adolescent-onset, early-adult onset and late-adult onset groups on patterns of substance use and related disorders, time course of the development of substance dependence and rates of comorbid mental disorders. A sample of male adolescents (n = 81) with SUD was also included as a comparison group. The subjects were recruited from intervention programs in the community and participated in semistructured interviews with diagnoses determined by the best estimate method. Adolescent-onset adults, compared with other adult-onset groups, had higher lifetime rates of cannabis and hallucinogen use disorders, shorter times from first exposure to dependence, shorter times between the development of their first and second dependence diagnoses and higher rates of disruptive behavior disorders and major depression. Adolescents were similar to adolescent-onset adults. While the findings must be interpreted in light of methodological limitations, these results suggest that adolescent-onset SUD is a distinct subtype involving different substances and more rapid development than adult-onset SUD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
