Prenatal iodine intake and infant temperament in a multiethnic US cohort
Objective: Maternal iodine plays a central role in fetal neurodevelopment. It is recommended that pregnant women consume sufficient levels of iodine to accommodate increased need for mother and fetus. We examined associations among prenatal dietary and supplemental iodine intake and infant temperament. Design: The PRogramming of Intergenerational Stress Mechanisms (PRISM) study is an ongoing longitudinal pregnancy cohort. Data from 2011 to 2020 w…
In verbis, vinum? Relating themes in an open-ended writing task to alcohol behaviors
Alcohol's function as a regulator of emotions has long been denoted in figures of speech, most famously 'in vino, veritas' (in wine, truth). In contrast, we ask whether an individual's self-reported alcohol consumption and related attitudes can be correlated with the words they use to write about alcohol. Participants completed an open-ended essay as part of a survey on alcohol attitudes and behaviors. We used a computerized technique, the Meanin…
Association Between Aspects of Drinking Pattern and Experience of Alcohol-Related Problems
This article reports results from a study of two groups of workers undertaken in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Separate random samples of company directors and brewery production workers were contacted and invited to participate in an interview survey related to alcohol consumption and consequences. Multiple logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between total consumption of alcohol, some aspects of pattern of consu…

Association of age and social class with suicide among men in Great Britain
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The aim was to investigate suicide and "undetermined" deaths by age, economic activity status, and social class in Great Britain among males of working age. DESIGN--The study was a cross sectional analysis of Registrar General's data for England and Wales around 1981, repeated for around 1971, and for Scotland around 1971 and 1981. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS--For England and Wales around 1971, suicide and undetermined death ra…

Fallacy of the Distribution of Alcohol Consumption
It is pointed out that it is fallacious to expect alcohol consumption to follow any particular statistical distribution. Emphasis on the distribution of alcohol consumption in research is therefore misguided

Frequency distribution of hospital-referred parasuicidal episodes in Edinburgh
This paper presents frequency distributions of parasuicidal episodes (suicide attempts) in Edinburgh for four subgroups of people for each of the years 1970, 1973, and 1974. Probability distributions are fitted to these data and it is shown that the log-series distribution best fits the data for two subgroups. The stability of the parameters of these distributions is examined and is demonstrated for two of the subgroups
