Australian Clients' Perspectives on Accessing Alcohol and Other Drug Counselling via Telehealth
Client Experiences of a Telephone‐Delivered Intervention for Methamphetamine Use Disorder
Changes in heroin-related ambulance attendances following the introduction of a medically supervised injecting room in Victoria, Australia
BACKGROUND: Injecting drug use contributes significantly to morbidity, mortality and broader social harms globally. Supervised Injecting Facilities (SIFs) are harm reduction interventions that reduce overdose risk and facilitate access to health services for marginalised individuals. While international evidence supports the effectiveness of SIFs, Australian population-level surveillance data quantifying their impact on emergency medical service …
Mapping Adolescent Suicidal and Non-Suicidal Self-Injurious Behaviours Across Eastern Australia
In Australia, adolescent suicidal and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviours have been steadily increasing over that past two decades. However, existing research on the geographic distribution of these behaviours in Australia largely focuses on adults, suicides, or uses pre-COVID-19 data. This study aimed to map and describe the geographic regions where ambulance attendances for adolescent suicidal and NSSI behaviours are occurring. Data from…
The association between school holidays and trends in adolescent ambulance attendances for suicidal and non‐suicidal self‐injurious Behaviours
BACKGROUND: Previous research on the protective effects of school holidays on adolescent suicidal and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has relied on hospital records which underestimate self-harm prevalence and has not been explored in the post pandemic environment. This study utilised ambulance attendance data to explore whether protective effects of school holidays on suicidal and NSSI behaviours were present pre- and post-COVID-19 restrictions.…
Exploring THC labelling preferences to communicate the strength of cannabis products
These exploratory findings preliminarily support the potential value of standardized THC dose labelling, particularly in the form of a standardized metric such as the Standard THC Unit, as a tool to better inform consumer decision-making and promote safer patterns of use. The findings require replication in more representative samples using additional THC metrics, including but not limited to, THC milligrams as a response option
Leveraging web-scraped data to examine alcohol pricing
This study presented an independently cross-checked large-scale and longitudinal web scraping approach to collect alcohol price data, and demonstrated that the adapted data could aid understanding of the alcohol retail market. Web scraping is a feasible method to collect price data to support the development of evidence-based alcohol price policy
Temperament, brain structure and problematic video gaming in adolescence – A six-year longitudinal study
Peer navigation
Background People with alcohol and other drug (AOD) use problems face multiple barriers to care. Peer navigation may overcome known barriers to care. This pilot study explored the impact of peer navigation integrated into an AOD telephone helpline.Methods Helpline callers (n = 34; 21 male, 12 female, 1 non-binary; mean age 41.3 years) were connected to a peer worker for 6 weekly phone sessions. Linear mixed models were performed to assess change …
‘It's Hard to Look Past the Accessibility’
Patterns of Acute Gamma‐Hydroxybutyrate Harms Requiring Ambulance Attendance
Development of an SMS-based alcohol intervention program for same sex attracted women using an intervention mapping framework
BACKGROUND: Studies indicate that same-sex attracted women (SSAW) who engage in problem drinking often do not seek support. This is at least partially due to a lack of SSAW-tailored alcohol programs. This paper describes the co-development of a short message service (SMS) alcohol program culturally tailored for SSAW. METHOD: We applied the systematic stages of the Intervention Mapping framework to guide development, and used a combination of lite…
Patterns of intimate partner violence in Victoria, Australia
Limited surveillance mechanisms have investigated the acute harms associated with intimate partner violence (IPV). This study used novel coded ambulance data to examine the socioeconomic and geographical remoteness distribution of IPV victim survivors attended to by paramedics in the context of acute alcohol and/or drug and mental health harms. Coded ambulance records involving IPV (N = 1484) from 2016 to 2018 were extracted from the Victorian ar…
Evaluation of an SMS Based Alcohol Intervention for Same Sex Attracted Women
Purpose The purpose of this randomized controlled trial (Trial registration ID: redacted) was to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of the Step One program, an SMS-based alcohol intervention for same-sex attracted women (SSAW).Methods Ninety-seven SSAW who scored ≥8 on the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) were randomly allocated to receive the Step One program (n = 47; mean age = 36.79) or a weekly message conta…
The experiences of family members attending an online addiction education program
Family members of people experiencing addiction may experience increased stress and have difficulty coping with disrupted relationships, stigma, and isolation. Education programs for affected family members aim to assist in improving coping skills, understanding of addiction, and provide support, yet these have not been subjected to in-depth research, especially programs delivered by peers, or people with lived experience. This study explored the…

A qualitative study of using nicotine products for smoking cessation after discharge from residential drug and alcohol treatment in Australia
Experiences of telehealth among people receiving alcohol and other drug treatment during the Covid ‐19 pandemic
The dynamics of more-than-human care in depot buprenorphine treatment
Our analysis destabilises commonplace assumptions about a linear, causal relationship between the pharmacological action of depot buprenorphine and experiences of treatment. Instead, it highlights patients' variable experiences of depot buprenorphine, tracing the everyday practices, embodied feelings, expectations and wider networks of care that shape patient experiences. We conclude with some reflections on the implications of our analysis for a…
Putting out the welcome mat—A qualitative exploration of service delivery processes and procedures as barriers to treatment‐seeking for people who use alcohol and other drugs
Changes in opioid agonist treatment initiation among people prescribed opioids for pain following voluntary and mandatory prescription drug monitoring program implementation
Description of Trends over the Week in Alcohol-Related Ambulance Attendance Data
Alcohol harms are often determined using a proxy measure based on temporal patterns during the week when harms are most likely to occur. This study utilised coded Australian ambulance data from the Victorian arm of the National Ambulance Surveillance System (NASS) to investigate temporal patterns across the week for alcohol-related ambulance attendances in 2019. These patterns were examined by season, regionality, gender, and age group. We found …
Social identity differentiation predicts commitment to sobriety and wellbeing in residents of therapeutic communities
Going Online
Online counseling can overcome barriers families face when accessing support services for issues such as a relative's alcohol or other drug use. However, little research has explored how online counseling platforms assist family members to improve their well-being and support their relative. We thematically analyzed 90 transcripts of online counseling sessions with family and friends of people who use alcohol, opioids, and amphetamines in Austral…

It explores features of internet gambling leading to loss of control, control strategies used by internet gamblers, and the perceived utility of online responsible gambling measures. Interviews with 25 moderate risk and problem internet gamblers yielded rich first-person accounts analysed using …
Patterns of family conflict and their impact on substance use and psychosocial outcomes in a sample of young people in treatment
The influence of family environment on adolescent substance use is well established, but little is known about its impact on outcomes for young people in treatment for substance use disorders. This study aimed to investigate the impact of family conflict and its resolution on substance use and measures of well-being among adolescents in treatment. Eighty young people (aged 16–21 years) were recruited from youth-specific alcohol and drug community…

Parenting Factors Associated with Reduced Adolescent Alcohol Use
Objective: To identify parenting strategies associated with adolescent alcohol consumption that parents can use to implement new national guidelines regarding alcohol consumption by people under the age of 18. Methods: A systematic search of academic literature employing the PRISMA method identified 77 relevant articles. Inclusion criteria for the review were (i) longitudinal cohort studies; (ii) measurement of one or more parenting factors durin…
Parenting strategies for reducing adolescent alcohol use
A comprehensive set of parenting strategies for preventing or reducing adolescent alcohol consumption were identified. These strategies can be promoted to parents to help them implement national recommendations for use of alcohol by young people
Alcohol consumption in tertiary education students
Our findings are consistent with previous studies of tertiary student populations, and highlight the disconnect between knowledge of relevant guidelines and actual behaviour. There is a clear need for interventions within tertiary education institutions that promote more effective means of coping with psychological distress and improve help-seeking for alcohol problems, particularly among young men

Video Game Addiction, Engagement and Symptoms of Stress, Depression and Anxiety
Overcoming alcohol and other drug addiction as a process of social identity transition
In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on a recovery model within alcohol and drug policy and practice. This has occurred concurrently with the emergence of community- and strengths-based approaches in positive psychology, mental health recovery and desistance and rehabilitation from offending. Recovery is predicated on the idea of substance user empowerment and self-determination, using the metaphor of a “journey”. Previous research…
Awareness of energy drink intake guidelines and associated consumption practices
Australia is considered to have the most stringent regulatory approach to EDs internationally. However, advisory statements are not associated with greater awareness and compliance with intake guidelines. Failure to comply with standards for efficacious product labelling, and absence of broader education regarding guidelines, needs to be addressed
What are parents doing to reduce adolescent alcohol misuse? Evaluating concordance with parenting guidelines for adolescent alcohol use
This validated self-assessment parenting measure can be useful for identifying targets for parenting interventions designed to prevent or reduce adolescent alcohol misuse, and as a pre- and post-intervention assessment to assess the effects of such interventions
‘Holy shit, didn’t realise my drinking was high risk’
Commentators view online screening and automated feedback interventions as low-cost ways of addressing alcohol and other drug-related harms. These interventions place people into categories of risk based upon scores from standardised screens and provide automated feedback about a person’s level of risk of developing alcohol and other drug ‘problems’. In this article, we examine how one particular alcohol and other drug online screening and feedba…
A model for lesbian, bisexual and queer-related influences on alcohol consumption and implications for policy and practice
Research consistently reports higher rates of problematic drinking among lesbian, bisexual and queer women than among heterosexual women, but relatively little research has identified underlying factors. Within this context, the aim of the present study was to qualitatively explore the sociocultural influences on alcohol consumption among lesbian, bisexual and queer women in Australia. An ethnographic study including in-depth interviews and 10 se…
Social disadvantage and past treatment among clients entering public alcohol and drug services in two Australian states
Environmental contexts of combined alcohol and energy drink use
Modifiable parenting factors associated with adolescent alcohol misuse
The personal impacts of having a partner with problematic alcohol or other drug use
Background: Previous studies have identified that problematic alcohol and other drug (AOD) use has major impacts on family members. Work with partners suggests they experience mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, or stress, which arise from feelings of helplessness, self-blame, uncertainty, worry, conflict and disruption to family life. However, most studies have focussed on interviews with participants purposively recruited from …
Australian adolescents’ beliefs and help-seeking intentions towards peers experiencing symptoms of depression and alcohol misuse
While the results point towards a greater willingness to approach formal help sources, particularly for depression, peers remain an important source of support for young people experiencing mental health and substance use problems
What constitutes a ‘problem’?” Producing ‘alcohol problems’ through online counselling encounters
Latent Psychotic Symptom Profiles Amongst People Who Use Methamphetamine
The inability to distinguish clearly between methamphetamine-related psychosis and schizophrenia has led to the suggestion that "methamphetamine psychosis" does not represent a distinct diagnostic entity but rather that the drug has triggered a vulnerability to schizophrenia. We tested this possibility by exploring the latent class structure of psychotic symptoms amongst people who use the drug and examining how these latent symptom profiles corr…
Exploring Harms Experienced by Children Aged 7 to 11 Using Ambulance Attendance Data
Many population data sources do not routinely collect data of children under 12, despite research showing that mental health, self-injurious behaviour, and substance ingestion can have severe consequences in this age group. We used 6 years (January 2012 to December 2017) of ambulance attendance data from the Australian state of Victoria to characterise mental health, self-injurious behaviour, and substance ingestion in children aged 7−11. We comp…
