‘Spice’ Use Motivations, Experiences, and Repercussions among Veterans of the United States Armed Forces
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The potential for synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) to function as an alternative to marijuana without the same risk of a positive urinalyses led to claims of pervasive military SC use. Case studies confirm use among veterans, but no study has adequately explored SC use in the military using detailed interview data. METHODS: Interviews (1-2 h) were conducted with 318 justice-involved veterans. Recruitment was attempted with …
Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Substance Use: Using the Social Structure-Social Learning Model to Explore Drug Use in the LGBTQ+ Community
Members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other gender and sexual minority (LGBTQ+) community are disproportionately affected by illicit substance use, yet sexual orientation and gender identity are largely omitted from criminology frameworks. LGBTQ+ identity is incorporated into Akers’ Social Structure-Social Learning (SSSL) model to suggest that existing disparate substance use patterns may be attributed to variation in sub…
Sing Me Back Home: ” Using Country Music to Clarify Criminological Theory in Undergraduate Courses
The inclusion of music is central to early education pedagogy as an efficient means of conveying information and a mechanism for knowledge retention, yet these tools are generally omitted from higher educational approaches. Drawing on prior studies highlighting how musical assignments successfully supplemented traditional criminal justice coursework, a criminological theory course was redesigned with music as a core component. Musical selections …
Does cannabis testing in the military drive synthetic cannabinoid use? Self-reported use motivations among justice-involved veterans
Exploring the Relationships between Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity and Youth Synthetic Cannabinoid Use
Purpose: Existing studies have identified sexual minorities as being at enhanced risk for reporting synthetic cannabinoid (SC) use. It is unclear whether this association is the result of those that identify as a minority due to sexual orientation being more likely to use SCs, due to those that identify as transgender using SCs more, or both. Deconstructing this relationship will allow for targeted clinical advice and public health campaigns. Met…
Online Peers and Offline Highs: An Examination of Online Peer Groups, Social Media Homophily, and Substance Use
Research indicates that youths are particularly susceptible to peer influence and that identifying with substance using peer groups predicts substance use. Today, youth spend more time interacting with distal peer groups via the Internet and have increased access to online drug cultures. Theoretically, this should have important implications for substance use. This study employs a nationally representative sample of U.S. youth (n = 1212), ages 15…
Sexual Orientation and Synthetic Cannabinoid Use: Examining the Role of Bullying Victimization
Bullying is a common experience among youths with many adverse consequences. Research indicates that those who identify as lesbian, gay, and bisexual experience bullying at greater levels than heterosexuals. Studies also indicate that sexual minorities are more likely to use alcohol and other drugs, including synthetic cannabinoids (SCs). This paper examines whether the relationship between sexual minority status and SC use is mediated by differe…
Police Stress, Mental Health, and Resiliency during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Comfortably Numb? Revisiting and Re-Specifying the Relationship Between Health Strain and Substance Use
Studies have found a positive linear relationship between health strain and substance use; however, they often omit potential confounders such as self-control, social bonds, and peer use. Furthermore, there are several reasons to believe the relationship is curvilinear according to Agnew’s general strain theory. Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health, we examine whether the linear relationship persists after…
Mixing Shots: Assessing Self-Reported Drunk Hunting and Target Shooting in a Young Adult Population
Although the literature presents many studies generally relating gun ownership and the use of intoxicants to unfavorable outcomes, few studies have explored deviance in the form of negligent firearm use. This study explores firearm usage while under the influence of alcohol and/or marijuana utilizing self-report data from a random sample of 2,349 students. Findings indicate males, those closest to the minimum legal drinking age, individuals with …
The 'Other Side of The Fence: A Learning- And Control-Based Investigation Of The Relationship Between Deviance And Friendship Quality
Utilizing frameworks of social control and differential association theories, this study addresses the extent to which deviance (a predictor) is related to friendship quality (the outcome). Using dyadic data, results demonstrate that the highest estimates of friendship quality come from actors who have non-deviant friends and who also refrain from theft and violence themselves. Shared deviance within the friendship, referred to as 'homophily,' ha…
LGBT Novel Drug Use as Contextualized Through Control, Strain, and Learning Theories
Objective We examine novel drug use in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community in the context of social learning, self‐control, and strain theories. Methods Based on a sample of 2,349 college students, we examine novel drug use rates of LGBT participants. We then perform a series of logistic regression models to examine factors correlated with LGBT novel drug use. Results We find LGBT individuals have higher rates of use for …
Exploring Butane Hash Oil Use: A Research Note
The practice of "dabbing" has seen an apparent upswing in popularity in recent months within American drug subcultures. "Dabbing" refers to the use of butane-extracted marijuana products that offer users much higher tetrahydrocannabinol content than flower cannabis through a single dosage process. Though considerably more potent than most marijuana strains in their traditional form, these butane hash oil products and the practice of dabbing are u…
Keeping it Between the Buoys: Assessing Self-Reported Boating Under the Influence (BUI) in a Young Adult Population
Boating Under the Influence (BUI) has recently become a topic of significant concern. Employing a sample of 1,082 young adult boaters, we explore demographic characteristics of those who seek various levels of intoxication while boating and apply several of the leading criminological theories to the study of BUI. We evaluate self-report measures of intoxicated boating, buzzed boating, and BUI. Results indicate that social learning theory and low …
Peer Group Delinquency and Sexual Victimization: Does Popularity Matter
Though a large body of research has found that peer social network characteristics influence both offending and victimization, relatively little is known about the influence of social network characteristics on adolescent sexual victimization. Attractiveness and sociability largely indicate popularity for teenage females, which in turn leads to earlier onset of dating, greater dating options, and potential risk of sexual victimization—an observat…
Not-So-Clean Fun: A Profile of Bath Salt Users Among a College Sample in the United States
This research examines the characteristics of users of synthetic stimulants marketed as "bath salts." Synthetic stimulants such as MDPV (3,4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone), Mephedrone (4-Methylmethcathinone), and Methylone (3,4-Methylenedioxymethcathinone) are often contained in products sold at convenience stores and over the Internet in the United States. Despite the recent legal action banning these types of synthetic stimulants, little is known …
Binge Drinking, Marijuana Use, and Friendships: The Relationship Between Similar and Dissimilar Usage and Friendship Quality
While it is commonly understood that the substance use of peers influences an individual's substance use, much less is understood about the interplay between substance use and friendship quality. Using a sample of 2,148 emerging adults nested within 1,074 dyadic friendships, this study separately investigates how concordance and discordance in binge drinking and marijuana use between friends is related to each friend's perceptions of friendship q…

Learning to E-Cheat: A Criminological Test of Internet Facilitated Academic Cheating
An increasing problem of great concern for academic institutions is the perva- siveness of cheating among students. Further compounding this problem is advancements in technology that have created new ways for students to engage in cheating. Despite a growing interest in technology facilitated cheat- ing, little is known about why students may employ electronic resources to cheat. However, Akers’ social learning theory offers one plausible explan…
