Evidence found in paper:

"Funding The study was funded by the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare (FORTE) (2015-00857). Conflicts of interest: None declared. Key pointsGiven the decline of alcohol use among adolescents, there is a lack of knowledge regarding whether these adolescents’ alcohol consumption will remain low as they grow older.By following non-drinking adolescents into adulthood, this study revealed that most of them—with the exception of those who presented conduct problems—did not catch up with drinking in adulthood.This finding may suggest that the trend of decreased alcohol use among adolescents might correspond to decreased consumption in young adulthood."
