How politicians and the population attribute responsibility for climate change mitigation: No indication of a 'governance trap' in Norway
Previous research claims that ‘the most significant risk’ to achieving climate change mitigation goals is the ‘governance trap’, whereby governments and the public attribute responsibility for action to one another. While it is well documented that individuals call for political action on climate change, there is limited knowledge about how politicians attribute responsibility for climate change mitigation. The present study examines whether ther…
Discrimination against Roma: Evidence from two survey experiments in Norway
Norway has a history of tough assimilation of the first migration of Roma people, known as the Tater/Romani people. The state introduced laws that discriminated against the Tater/Romani people. This article traces the international and national developments from discriminatory laws to laws against discrimination in Norway. With the recent appearance of immigrant Roma from Eastern Europe, Roma are once again on the political agenda of West Europea…
Sources of Pharmaceutical Opioids for Non-Medical Use among Young Adults
The study uses qualitative and quantitative data to describe sources of pain pills for illicit use among young adult (18- to 23-year-old) users. Respondent-driven sampling was used to recruit 383 individuals in the Columbus, Ohio, area. The sample was almost 50% Caucasian and about 55% male. Qualitative interview participants (n = 45) were selected from the larger sample. Qualitative data suggest that pharmaceutical opioid availability was so per…

Predictors of Depressive Symptomatology Among Rural Stimulant Users
This study examined sociodemographic and drug-related predictors of depressive symptoms among a rural, multistate sample of not-in-treatment stimulant drug users (n=710). Participants were recruited using respondent-driven sampling in Ohio, Arkansas, and Kentucky. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to measure symptoms of depression. Moderate to severe depressive symptomatology was reported by 43.0% of the sample. Cumulative logisti…
Attitudes toward Needle "Sharing" among Injection Drug Users: Combining Qualitative and Quantitative Research Methods
Ethnographers working with injection drug users in U.S. AIDS prevention projects have found that these drug users generally prefer not to use each other's needles and do not conceive of needle "sharing" (transfer) as a key dimension of their identity. To date, these findings have been based primarily on qualitative ethnographic methods. We operationalized injection drug users' values toward needle transfer and administered a questionnaire to 276 …
An Ethnographic Approach to Targeted Sampling: Problems and Solutions in Aids Prevention Research among Injection Drug and Crack-Cocaine Users
Recruiting large samples from "hidden populations" of injection drug and crack-cocaine users who are not in drug treatment has been a troubling methodological problem that has increased in significance in the face of the AIDS pandemic. This article describes a sampling strategy developed for AIDS prevention research in Montgomery County (Dayton) Ohio that combines targeted sampling with the systematic derivation of proportional sampling quotas. T…
