The Influence of Initiation Context on Attributions Towards Individuals with an Opioid Use Disorder Diagnosis
BACKGROUND: Opioid misuse can occur through two pathways of initiation: medical and nonmedical. This makes opioids unique relative to substances of misuse (e.g., nicotine, alcohol), where initial exposure starts with nonmedical experimentation. Differences in initiation may influence attributions toward individuals with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). Those initiating use medically may be perceived as less personally responsible for their OUD diagnosi…
Psychological Need Satisfaction and Simultaneous Alcohol and Marijuana Use
Background: Prior work suggests psychological need satisfaction (PNS) may protect against single-substance alcohol and marijuana use, yet little is known about its association with simultaneous alcohol and marijuana (SAM) use. This study aims to address this gap by examining the link between PNS and SAM use in college students. Further, to better explain the conditions under which PNS associates with SAM use, we also explore SAM use motives as a …
Examining the Role of Affect in Young Adult’s Willingness to Engage in Simultaneous Alcohol and Marijuana Use
BACKGROUND: Prior work suggests that specific motivations and day-level affect impact young adults' simultaneous alcohol and marijuana use (SAM use) behaviors, yet less is known about the influences of momentary affect experienced during the opportunity to move from single to simultaneous use on their decision to engage in SAM use. OBJECTIVES: Two within-subjects, scenario-based studies were conducted to examine how momentary affect during a hypo…
Application of Self-Determination Theory to Substance Use and Its Treatment
Background: Self-determination theory (SDT) may provide important insights for understanding substance misuse and treatment outcomes. However, to date, the literature applying SDT to substance use and its treatment is varied and difficult to integrate. Methods: The authors searched psycINFO and PubMed on October 26th, 2021 to identify articles applying SDT to substance use and its treatment. Eligible studies were published in peer-reviewed articl…
How Does Being under the Influence Affect Willingness to Experience Overlapping Effects of Alcohol and Marijuana
Objective This study tested how individuals anticipate they will respond to opportunities to engage in simultaneous alcohol and marijuana (SAM) use.Methods Two studies utilizing a within-subjects design were conducted. Study 1 was conducted in Spring 2021 and a replication (Study 2) was conducted in Fall 2021. Participants were presented with pairs of scenarios. One scenario pair compared how willing participants expected to be to get drunk if th…

Marijuana Use and Increases in Use over Time among Young Adult College Students in the State of Georgia
Background While research has assessed correlates of marijuana use, there has been less focus on predictors of differing levels of changes in use during young adulthood, a critical period for use/escalation.Objectives We examined changes in marijuana use and related sociocontextual predictors (e.g., earlier-onset substance use, parental use, college type).Methods Using data from Georgia college students (ages 18–25 years) in a 2-year, 6-wave long…
Judgments about illegal performance-enhancing substances
This study applied aspects of the Theory of Reasoned Action and the Prototype/Willingness model to understand cognitions associated with the use of illegal performance-enhancing substances. There were two study objectives. One was to investigate whether the illegal-is-effective heuristic (i.e. belief that illegal performance-enhancing substances are more effective than legal performance-enhancing substances) affects willingness to use illegal per…
Positive Self-Beliefs as a Mediator of the Relationship Between Adolescents’ Sports Participation and Health in Young Adulthood
Student perceptions and motivation in the classroom
Drive for Muscularity and Beliefs about Legal Performance Enhancing Substances as Predictors of Current Use and Willingness to Use
Using a sample of college-aged male athletes ( n = 56) and nonathletes ( n = 43), negative and positive beliefs were tested as mediators of the relationship between Drive for Muscularity (DM) and use of performance enhancing substances (PES). Results showed that the Muscularity Behavior (MB) and Muscularity-oriented Body Image (MBI) subscales of the DM scale differentially predicted PES use. Results also showed that negative and positive beliefs …
Is Abstinence an Alternative
The present study incorporated the behavioral alternative of abstinence into the Theory of Reasoned Action to test whether abstinence contributed to the prediction of intentions to use performance enhancing substances (PES). Adolescent athletes ( N = 241) completed a questionnaire about the use of legal and illegal PES. Approximately 2.5 percent of adolescents reported having tried an illegal PES and 17 percent reported having tried a legal PES. …
Peer Influences on Risk Behavior
Cross-sectional research suggests that peer influence has a moderate to strong impact on adolescent risk behavior. Such estimates may be inflated owing to third-variable confounds representing either friendship selection effects or the operation of parallel events. Approximately 1,700 peer dyads in Grades 7 to 11 were studied over a 1-year period to estimate the influence of closest friends on sexual activity and binge drinking. Analyses suggeste…
Parent-adolescent communication about sex and birth control
Participation in Athletics and Female Sexual Risk Behavior
Researchers have reported that female athletes exhibit lower levels of sexual risk behavior than female nonathletes. The present study explored four causal structures relevant to such associations. Potential mediators and confounds included physical development, educational aspirations, self-esteem, attitudes toward pregnancy, adolescent involvement in a romantic relationship, age, ethnicity, and social class. Data were analyzed for a sample of f…
