Barriers to Seeking Help for Gambling Problems
Maturing out of drinking problems
This study tested the hypothesis that maturing out descriptions of change were more common among respondents whose drinking problems were less severe prior to reduction and that consequence driven changes were more common among those who had a lifetime diagnosis of alcohol dependence, prior to resolution. As part of a general population telephone survey, former heavy drinkers were asked their reasons for change. These responses were tape-recorded…
Yes, I've Received Treatment”
Aim: To assess what it means when respondents say they have received treatment on population surveys. Method: Former heavy drinkers recruited through a random digit dialing telephone survey were asked about the type, time, and amount of treatment they had received. Results: When respondents indicated that they had received treatment, it appeared that they had a specific treatment in mind, that they completed the treatment program, and that, for t…
Characteristics of Former Heavy Drinkers
This study explored the factors associated with reduction from heavy drinking among three groups: current abstinent, moderate, and reduced drinkers. A random-digit-dialing telephone survey was conducted of 3,006 respondents in Ontario, Canada. Of these, 470 respondents (46% female) met criteria as former heavy drinkers (99 abstinent; 237 moderate; 134 reduced but not moderate drinkers). Quantitative and qualitative questions were used to explore …

Two primary constructs, cognitive appraisals and life events, were measured in a mailed-out baseline survey. A two month follow-up survey identified those who had made reductions in drinking. Regression analyses revealed some support for a cognitive appraisal explanation of change. Respondents who identifie…

Sixty outpatient addiction treatment agencies in Ontario, Canada, participated in a case study exploring the factors related to the adoption of research-evaluated treatment technologies. The agencies received free training in a manual-based, brief outpatient treatment program. At a twelve-month follow-up period, managers were interviewed to assess the proportion of agencies using the treatment package and the factors encouraging or discouraging t…
