Note. For role transition: 0=remained unmarried and a non-parent; 1=became married or a parent. For familial AUD: 0=FH−; 1=FH+. For sex: 0=male; 1=female.

¹In initial models, pre-role problem drinking was mean centered such that results indicated the model-estimated role transition effect at the mean of pre-role problem drinking. Models were then re-estimated after re-centering pre-role problem drinking to obtain model-estimated role transition effects at low (0) and high (mean + 1SD) levels of pre-role problem drinking.
