Stimulant Overdose Prediction Model for Medicaid-Insured Persons
This case-cohort study found that readily available data can be used to identify those at high risk of hospitalization or ED visit for cocaine- or stimulant-involved overdose. These individuals would likely benefit most from evidence-based interventions and awareness of risk factors for overdose
Trends in Methadone Use for Pain and Opioid Use Disorder Among Medicaid Enrollees
This cross-sectional study aims to quantify methadone use for opioid use disorder in the Medicaid program and assesses buprenorphine use as a possible shift between medications for opioid use disorder
Development of Abbreviated Nine-Item Forms of the Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices Test
The Raven’s Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM) is a 60-item test for measuring abstract reasoning, considered a nonverbal estimate of fluid intelligence, and often included in clinical assessment batteries and research on patients with cognitive deficits. The goal was to develop and apply a predictive model approach to reduce the number of items necessary to yield a score equivalent to that derived from the full scale. The approach is based on …
The relationship between history of violent and criminal behavior and recognition of facial expression of emotions in men with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder
Social psychological research underscores the relation between aggression and emotion. Specifically, regulating negative affect requires the ability to appraise restraint-producing cues, such as facial signs of anger, fear and other emotions. Individuals diagnosed with major mental disorders are more likely to have engaged in violent behavior than mentally healthy members of the same communities. We examined whether violent and criminal behavior …
A Two Factor Anova-like Test for Correlated Correlations
Testing homogeneity of correlations with Fisher's Z is inappropriate when correlations are themselves correlated. Suppose measurements of brain activation and performance are taken before and during a verbal memory task. Of interest are changes in activity gradients in specific regions, R1, R2, R3, and performance, V. The "correlated correlations" of interest ρV,R1 , ρV,R2 , and ρV,R3 , have a single variable, V, in common. We wish to compare the…
A Case–Control Study of Female-to-Female Nonintimate Violence in an Urban Area
Objectives. The aims of this study were to describe the characteristics surrounding female-to-female nonpartner violence and to identify independent factors associated with risk of female-to-female intentional injuries. Methods. A case–control investigation was conducted among women who resided in an urban, low-income community and presented for emergency department care for injuries inflicted by female nonpartners. Results. Women were typically …
