• Description:
  The primary aims of this work were to investigate longitudinal associations between occupation and alcohol use disorders (AUD) across early-to-mid adult life. Longitudinal trajectories of work substantive complexity were constructed by growth mixture modeling (GMM) of occupational data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 and O*NET work variables, modeling men and women separately. Association between work trajectories and AUD was modeled using generalized linear models and adjusting for education. Both men and women exhibit a 3- class work trajectory model. Lower work trajectories were associated with higher AUD prevalence and incidence. Incident AUDs were associated with a subsequent decline in work trajectory class for both high and low initial classes; more strongly in women despite lower overall AUD incidence. We conclude that low work trajectory is associated with increased AUD prevalence. Development of an AUD may presage risk of decline in work SC. These findings suggest reinforcing relations between the development of AUD and occupational course at mid-life. [Description provided by NIOSH]
