The focus of Celeste Wilson's research is to assess methods of screening parents for alcohol problems during pediatric office visits for their children. This includes assessing parents' reactions to being asked questions about their alcohol use and determining their preferences for how their child's clinician should respond. The purpose of this research is to inform policymakers regarding the best methods of screening parents for alcohol problems during pediatric office visits for their children.
Major goals of Dr. Wilson's research include:
- Estimate the prevalence of problem drinking among parents bringing their children for routine pediatric care to a network of clinical sites
- Assess parents' attitudes about having the pediatrician ask their children about the parents' drinking habits
- Assess pediatric providers' reactions to screening parents for problem drinking as part of pediatric practice
