This pathway depended on parental alcohol expectancies. Findings suggest that including mediators (e.g., perceived approval of drinking) helps to clarify the mixed literature on parental communication about alcohol and that parental attitudes about alcohol can impact the effectiveness with which parents convey the risk of alcohol to offspring.

Simulation of indirect damage originating from the attack of free radical species produced by ionizing radiation on biological molecules based on the independent pair approximation is investigated in this work. In addition, a new approach, relying on the independent pair approximation that is at the origin of the independent reaction time (IRT) method, is proposed in the chemical stage of Geant4-DNA. This new approach has been designed to respect the current Geant4-DNA chemistry framework while proposing a variant IRT method. Based on the synchronous algorithm, this implementation allows us to access the information concerning the position of radicals and may make it more convenient for biological damage simulations. Estimates of the evolution of free species as well as biological hits in a segment of DNA chromatin fiber in Geant4-DNA were compared for the dynamic time step approach of the step-by-step (SBS) method, currently used in Geant4-DNA, and this newly implemented IRT. Results show a gain in computation time of a factor of 30 for high LET particle tracks wi
