AD, alcohol dependence; AUD, alcohol use disorder; OR, odds ratio; CI, 95%confidence interval.

Baseline was at wave 6 when participants were on average 29 (SD = 1.03) years of age. Follow-up was at wave 7 when participants were on average 34 (SD = 0.82) years of age. The total N for both AD (48) and AUD (143) is equal to the number of individuals who diagnosed at wave 6 and provided data at wave 7. Withdrawal was inestimable due to a zero cell count (i.e., all individuals who endorsed withdrawal reliably diagnosed with lifetime disorders).
