  • Can hair data yield new insights into associations between frequent cannabis use and adverse outcomes?

    Beschreibung: This thesis will examine whether THC concentration in hair is worse, as good, or a better marker than self-reported cannabis use in models estimating associations between cannabis use and adverse outcomes, most likely focusing on 2-3 outcomes of interest. The thesis will be written in English. Shanahan, L., Steinhoff, A., Bechtiger, L., Copeland, W. E., Ribeaud, D., Eisner, M., & Quednow, B. B. (2021).

  • Binge Drinking in Adolescence: Prevalence and its Associations with Violence

    Beschreibung: This thesis will examine the binge-drinking measure in z-proso to age 24, including its overall prevalence, and also its prevalence by sex and migration status. It will also examine how binge-drinking in adolescent males and females is linked with later outcomes, including engagement in different forms of criminal behavior (e.g., minor & major delinquency) and violence, also taking into account childhood and adolescent risk factors that may predict both, binge-drinking and criminal behaviors. This thesis involves secondary data analysis of the prospective longitudinal community cohort study z-proso. This thesis can be written in German or English. References Waterman, E. A., Lee, K. D.

  • Intergenerational transmission of parenting behavior: a prospective longitudinal study

    Beschreibung: Children?s early caregiving environment can have pervasive, long-term consequences on life outcomes (Bachmann et al., 2022; Doyle & Cicchetti, 2017; Fraley & Roisman, 2015; Raby et al., 2015). This includes parenting behaviors. Particularly, harsh parenting, characterized by hostility, insensitivity, and impulsivity, has been implicated as a risk factor for child development (Burt et al., 2021; Gershoff & Grogan-Kaylor, 2016; Wiggins et al., 2015). Understanding why some parents are more like to engage in harsher parenting than others is therefore an important endeavor for research. Predictors of parenting behavior likely include individual differences in parents? characteristics (e.g. personality, mental health), child characteristics (e.g. early temperament), and social influences (e.g. relationship with co-parent; (Belsky, 1984; Taraban & Shaw, 2018)). One parental characteristic that is relatively less explored is parents? developmental history. Specifically, how new parents were parented as children by their own parents may influence their parenting behaviors, including harsh parenting. The current thesis examines this topic.
