Technology-Based Interventions and Trainings to Reduce the Escalation and Impact of Alcohol Problems

Technology-based interventions offer the possibility of reaching individuals who otherwise might not seek treatment, (e.g., those in remote areas, those not perceiving a need for treatment, or others who may resist treatment). This article describes four case examples of technology-b…

Transtheoretical Model and substance use in HIV-positive youth
The purpose of the study was to test constructs of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) for predicting alcohol and other drug use in HIV-positive youth (ages 16-25). Questionnaires and interviews about alcohol and other drug use, stage of change, self-efficacy, emotional distress and social support were obtained from 64 HIV-positive youth. Structural equation modeling with standard errors determined by methods appropriate to small samples, demonstrat…
Violence Exposure, Trauma, and IQ and/or Reading Deficits Among Urban Children
BACKGROUND: Exposure to violence in childhood has been associated with lower school grades. However, the association between violence exposure and performance on standardized tests (such as IQ or academic achievement) in children is unknown. It is also not known whether violence exposure itself or subsequent symptoms of trauma are primarily responsible for negative outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between violence exposure and tra…

Predictors of neglect within low-SES families
A case-control design (N = 203) was used to explore the relative ability of substance abuse, depression, social support, and negative life events to predict neglect status among low-socioeconomic-status families with and without substantiated neglect. Substance abuse emerged as the strongest predictor of neglect status as well as of parental disposition and adequacy of home environment

Sex with children is abuse
B. Rind, P. Tromovitch, and R. Bauserman (1998) reported a meta-analysis of the relation between sexual abuse in childhood and adolescence and psychological functioning among college students. Several aspects of their work have proven to be highly controversial, including their assertion that the relation between child sexual abuse and adjustment is quite small and their questioning of whether child sexual abuse should be labeled abuse in scienti…
