TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Family disruption in early life and drinking in young adulthood JO - Alcohol and alcoholism A1 - Estaugh, V. A1 - Power, C. SP - 639 EP - 644 VL - 26 IS - 5-6 N2 - The relationship between family disruption early in life and subsequent drinking in young adulthood was examined in a large representative British sample. Contrary to popular belief, parental loss was not an antecedent to heavy drinking in young adults. This finding was observed within social class of origin groups and when the nature and timing of the disruption were considered separately.
