Severity of Polysubstance Use Among Young People Seeking Drug and Alcohol Treatment, and Social and Mental Health Correlates
Objective Examine polysubstance use (polySU) profiles and associated demographic, treatment, functioning, and mental health correlates among young people at alcohol and other drug (AOD) treatment entry.Method N = 2,094 young people (12–25 years) enrolled in AOD treatment between (mean age = 20.67, SD = 3.42; 54% men). PolySU was modeled using latent profile analyses informed by severity of tobacco, alcohol, amphetamine, cannabis, opiate, MDMA, se…
Scoping review of the characteristics and implementation of routine outcome monitoring and feedback for adults and young people accessing alcohol and other drug use treatment
Efforts to examine how best to generate, present and use feedback to inform AOD treatment are needed. Optimising the use of feedback across treatment settings will require examination of the interplay between feedback characteristics and clinician, client and contextual variables. Improved attention to idiographic outcomes, benchmarks, diversity considerations, health literacy, treatment context, training, fidelity and the reporting of evaluation…
Three-Month Polysubstance Use Patterns Among People Enrolled in Outpatient Treatment for Methamphetamine Use
Background Polysubstance use is common among people who use methamphetamine. This prospective study examined the three-month polysubstance use profiles among people enrolled in outpatient treatment for methamphetamine use and associated substance use, mental health, and treatment correlates.Method The present study used routinely collected client-reported outcome measures data from N = 1,507 clients enrolled in outpatient treatment who reported m…

Understanding Drug and Alcohol Staff Perspectives on the Barriers and Facilitators to Drug Checking
A mixed‐methods study of staff perspectives on the barriers and facilitators to the implementation of patient‐reported routine outcome measures and feedback in alcohol and other drug treatment
Aggression, Suicidality, and Emotion Profiles in Youth
Suicidality and physical aggression are leading, related youth public health concerns. Yet, whether adolescents who harm themselves, others, or both differ emotionally and etiologically remains unclear. To address this, adolescents from a prospective population‐based birth cohort reported their suicidality, physical aggression, depression/anxiety symptoms, anger, and callousness ( N = 1637). Distinct latent harm‐emotion profiles were identified, …
Clinical profiles of people enrolling in alcohol and other drug treatment in Australia
The Use and Knowledge Around Vaping and Their Correlates Among University Students—A Cross-sectional Australian Study
The increasing prevalence of e-cigarette use (“vaping”) among youth has emerged as a public health concern. We aim to explore vape use, knowledge levels, and correlates in a sample of Australian young adults. Participants from six residential university colleges in Queensland, Australia, were invited to complete an online survey. The sample included 716 students ( M age =18.1 years). Correlates of vape use and knowledge examined included socio-de…
