The Role of Family Conflict on Risky Sexual Behavior in Adolescents Aged 15 to 21 Annals of Epidemiology 23,4 (April 2013): 233-235. Also: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1047279713000203 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Young Adult Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Adolescent Sexual Activity; Contraception; Family Decision-making/Conflict; Family Environment; Sexual Activity; Sexual Behavior Data from 1104 adolescents aged 15 to 21 who completed the 2008 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth were analyzed.

Evaluating the Unique Effects of Cognitive Ability and Parental Socioeconomic Status on Adult Dietary Behaviors and Receipt of Preventive Health Services Intelligence 47 (November-December 2014): 113-121. Also: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160289614001366 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB); Cognitive Ability; Educational Attainment; Health Care; Income; Nutritional Status/Nutrition/Consumption Behaviors; Parental Influences; Socioeconomic Status (SES) Some research has shown that both cognitive ability and parental socioeconomic status (parental SES) predict dietary behaviors and receipt of preventive health services later in life. However, previous research has not attempted to disentangle these effects while also examining important mediators such as education level and income. Based on a sample of 4078 individuals drawn from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979, we examined the unique effects of g and parental SES on adult dietary behaviors and receipt of preventive health services. Overall, the results suggest that there is essentially little direct unique effect of cognitive ability or parental SES on adult dietary behaviors and receipt of preventive health services. However, the total effects of cognitive ability and parental SES on adult dietary behaviors and receipt of preventive health services showed that higher levels of cognitive ability and parental SES were associated with healthier dietary habits and receipt of health services due to their effects on educational attainment and adult income. The findings may have implications for health education materials and access to healthcare. |
