We will also examine if effects differ by socioeconomic circumstances (SEC). (2) To estimate the effect of time spent on social media at age 14 years on the risk of alcohol use and binge drinking at age 17 years in UK adolescents recruited as part of the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS). We will also examine if effects differ by socioeconomic circumstances (SEC). This work is supported by the Medical Research Council (MC_UU_00022/2), Chief Scientist Office (SPHSU17), NHS Research Scotland (SCAF/15/02), and the Wellcome Trust (205412/Z/16/Z).
