Recurrent Injecting Drug Use as a Mediator between Psychiatric Disorder and Non-Fatal Overdose
Background Unintentional drug overdose has increased markedly in the United States. Studies document an association between psychiatric disorder and unintentional overdose; we extend this research through a preliminary test of a causal model of recurrent injection drug use mediating this relationship.Methods In a cross-sectional study of 241 adults in New York City with a possible current substance use disorder, we conducted conventional and Imai…
A Multistage Process Model of How a Person Who Currently Injects Drugs Comes to Assist Persons Who Do not Inject with Their First Injections
Injecting drugs for the first time almost always requires assistance from an experienced person who injects drugs (PWID). While there has been moderate amount of research on PWID who assist with first injections, most of this research has focused on identifying characteristics of PWID who assist with first injections. We do not have a formal model that describes how the minority of PWID come to assist do so, while the majority never assist. Throu…
Implementing an Updated “Break the Cycle” Intervention to Reduce Initiating Persons into Injecting Drug Use in an Eastern European and a US “opioid epidemic” Setting
Testing a somatization hypothesis to explain the Black–White depression paradox
Do racial patterns in psychological distress shed light on the Black–White depression paradox? A systematic review
Weighing the evidence for harm from long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications: A systematic review
Research findings supporting the use of antipsychotic medication for acute treatment of schizophrenia are relatively consistent and undisputed. However, the rationale for recommending long-term antipsychotic medication treatment-the current standard of care treatment strategy-is unclear. A controversial hypothesis proposed recently suggests people with schizophrenia who are exposed to long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications have worse …
Military suicide coverage: AP news wire & suicide guidelines
The authors evaluated how well Associated Press News Wire stories adhered to the Recommendations for Reporting on SuicideTM during 2012, a peak year of military suicide. They included individual suicide stories (N = 167) from randomly selected days. They also evaluated differences in the military versus civilian coverage. Military and civilian stories typically had about five negative practices, and less than one positive practice, with military …
Religious affiliation, internalized homophobia, and mental health in lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals
Most religious environments in the United States do not affirm homosexuality. The authors investigated the relationship between exposure to nonaffirming religious environments and internalized homophobia and mental health in a sample of lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals (LGBs) in New York City. Guided by minority stress theory, the authors hypothesized that exposure to nonaffirming religious settings would lead to higher internalized homophobia, m…
Mexican Immigrants' and Mexican Americans' Perceptions of Hypertension
Although the rate of hypertension (HTN) is no higher for Mexican-origin clients than for non-Hispanic Whites, their rate of blood pressure (BP) control is lower. To effectively assist clients with their BP, health care providers must first understand barriers and facilitators to BP control from the clients' perspectives. The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of living with HTN for Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans. A phe…
Stress, coping, and depression: Testing a new hypothesis in a prospectively studied general population sample of U.S.-born Whites and Blacks
Voices of Mexican American Caregivers for Family Members With Cancer: On Becoming Stronger
This grounded theory study report describes the experience of 34 Mexican American (MA) female caregivers who provided care to a family member with cancer. Caregivers identified a process of “Becoming Stronger” as a result of their caregiver role. The emerging theoretical model of female MA cancer caregiving offers evidence to change current cancer care approaches from patient-focused to family-focused care for this ethnic group. Findings suggest …
Community Social Support for Cuban Refugees in Texas
Social support has been linked to positive health outcomes for many populations across multiple health issues. The interactional approach defines social support as a complex, transactional process between the person and his or her social environment. Being part of a community enhances the likelihood of social bonding, leading to increased perceived support. In this study, the authors describe recently arrived adult Cuban refugees' perceptions of …

Mental Health Screening in a Refugee Population: A Program Report
An Analysis of the Grounded Theory Method and the Concept of Culture
Researchers increasingly include multicultural respondents in qualitative research studies. The grounded theory method, a currently popular qualitative methodology, seeks to interpret data for theory development. However, analysis of respondents from a culture(s) significantly different from the researcher's culture requires special attention to methodological issues. Requirements for conducting a grounded theory analysis with respondents from va…
