Abstract
Distress and ad lib alcohol consumption after interactions with child confederates were investigated in parents of children with externalizing disorders—attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorder (CD), or oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). Sixty subjects interacted with boys trained to act like either normal children or children with ADHD/CD/ODD. Interactions with deviant confederates resulted in feelings of inadequacy and produced negative affect but had no effect on alcohol consumption. Post hoc analyses showed that parents with a family history of alcohol problems (FH+) showed increased drinking after interaction with a deviant confederate, compared with FH+ parents who interacted with the normal confederate. FH‐ parents showed the opposite pattern of results. (Am J Addict 1998; 7:103–114)
