Abstract
Alcohol-related problems are a risk factor for future smoking among novice adolescent smokers above and beyond drinking or smoking per se. By signaling sensitivity to nicotine dependence symptoms, alcohol related problems represent an easily measureable risk factor that can be used to identify and intervene with adolescents before more chronic smoking behaviors emerge.
