Risky alcohol use in adolescence: the role of genetics (DRD2, SLC6A4) and coping motives.

Alcoholism, clinical and experimental research - 1 Apr 2011

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Drinking to cope (i.e., drinking to forget or alleviate negative feelings) has been found to be associated with adolescents' heavy drinking and alcohol-related problems. Additionally, it is widely accepted that genetic factors are involved in alcohol use and dependence. Studies are only beginning to reveal, however, which specific genotypes are related to drinking behaviors, and it is unknown whether...
