This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), will provide $158,246 to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027. The project aims to comprehensively evaluate the relationship between trauma exposure and substance use, incorporating situational stress factors, among the full population of Americans from childhood through adulthood. The research will utilize two large-scale, longitudinal, multi-domain datasets - the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study and the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) - to test whether situational stress factors moderate the co-occurrence of adolescent trauma and substance use, examine etiological trajectories of co-occurring trauma and substance use, and determine if situational stress factors moderate the trajectory from event-level co-occurrence to PTSD and substance use disorder symptom onset from childhood through adulthood.
