Parental Alcohol Problems and Lack of Adult Support During Childhood—Consequences for Subjective and Objective Social Connection in Adulthood
Associations between perceived discrimination and health
There is a clear association between multiple reasons for PD and low scores in mental and/or physical health, suggesting a cumulative influence. To address this issue effectively, prevention efforts should be implemented at both the national level and within local public health strategies
Assessing Place Attachment by Immigrant Status
Place attachment (PA) is recognised for its influence on health and well‐being. We validated a brief PA measure called the PA‐4, which focuses on the individual's place of residence and surrounding neighbourhood. The study included 17,487 participants from a national survey conducted in Norway in 2021. The PA‐4 comprises four indicators scored on a 0–10 scale. Emotional attachment was measured through indicators of belongingness and feeling safe …

Previous studies have indicated elevated levels of impulsivity, hyperactivity, and inattention (IHI) among opioid-dependent patients seeking outpatient treatment with extended-release naltrexone (XR-NTX). This led us to hypothesize that IHI may be associated with a higher discontinuation rate for XR-NTX treatment. In a group of 162 patients with opioid dependence, discontinuation prior to the full 24 weeks of the study period (six injections and …
Adverse childhood experiences and impact on quality of life in adulthood
The results confirmed the DCQ's discriminant and convergent validity and highlight this tool as an empirically supported approach to assess ACEs. Because of its brevity and psychometric strengths, the DCQ is useful for research and likely suited to mental health treatment settings
How do psychological characteristics of family members affected by substance use influence quality of life
When family members of people with addictions had the psychological characteristics of suppressing their emotions, believing they could fix others' problems, and neglecting their own for others' needs, they also had more family dysfunction and poorer quality of life. The SCCS offers a valid instrument for addressing the life situation of affected families. This scale can help clinicians focus on family members within health services, especially w…
