Design and outcome measures: Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, which followed adolescents (N = 18,921) for 13 years, we used discrete mixture modelling to identify unique developmental trajectories of drinking and of intoxication. Next, multilevel multinomial regression models examined the role of alcohol-related social norms from parents, friends and schoolmates in the prediction of youths' trajectory group membership.
Results: Results demonstrated that social norms from parents, friends and schoolmates that were favourable towards alcohol use uniquely predicted drinking and intoxication trajectory group membership. Interactions between social norms revealed that schoolmate drinking played an important moderating role, frequently augmenting social norms from parents and friends. The current findings suggest that social norms from multiple sources (parents, friends and schools) work both independently and interactively to predict longitudinal trajectories of adolescent alcohol use.

Our findings corroborate prior studies showing that higher schoolmate and teacher support decreases the probability of EBP in adolescents [23,24,25]. Likewise, children with more friends from school or higher schoolmate support tend to be characterized by fewer depressive symptoms [37,38,39]. Higher teacher support decreases the probability of emotional distress and engagement in deviant and violent behaviours [40,41,42]. Similarly, previous studies revealed that a positive school climate that builds on existing peer and teacher support is associated with lower levels of aggression [40,43]. The first finding is in line with theories of social networks and social support, confirming that higher schoolmate and teacher support during adolescence in school can have a beneficial effect for healthy development [8]. This research shows that this applies not only to emotional, but also to behavioural problems. Our results show that school and teacher support play a crucial role in adolescents with EBP.
