The health, social and economic implications of risk-taking in adolescence over the life-course: a data linkage study of the Raine cohort [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description Risk-taking is part of normal adolescent development, but much illness and social adversity arises from risky behaviour in adolescence. No systematic way exists to distinguish those likely to have poor outcomes, limiting our capacity to screen and intervene. By linking the Raine cohort study to routinely collected health and welfare data, we will identify pathways to such outcomes, estimate associated health and productivity costs, and quantify savings achievable with effective intervention.
