Abstract

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) or its risk is not just inherited but also affected by home-environment. Greater closeness to parents predicted higher visual P3 amplitudes and lower-odds for AUD diagnosis. Parental-monitoring mediated both associations. Parental-monitoring and closeness to parents, during adolescence, buffer debilitating neurophysiological and behavioral effects of AUD
