Adolescent Alcohol Use and High Risk Sexual Behavior

This study was a third wave of data collection from participants originally interviewed at the University at Buffalo 13 years previous. More than 1,400 African- and European-American young adults were re-interviewed in order to further understanding of the relationship between alcohol use and sexual behavior that increases risk for infection with AIDS and other diseases. M. Lynne Cooper at the University of Missouri was principal investigator of the NIAAA -funded project at all three waves; Kurt Dermen was principal investigator on the subcontract for the data collection effort. Funded by a subcontract of $1,070,386, from the University of Missouri - Columbia, 1999-2004.
