Substance Use Prevention Programming for Adolescents and Young Adults
Background Although substance use problems are highly prevalent among adolescents and emerging adults, this population does not regularly receive substance use prevention programming in their communities. Low perceived risk of substance use, which is linked to actual behavior, may contribute to low rates of engagement in community prevention efforts for substance use. To examine this, the current study used a mixed methods approach to: (1) examin…
Prescription Drug Abuse Among Patients in Rural Dental Practices Reported by Members of the National Dental PBRN
Purpose This study compared rural to nonrural dentists with respect to opioid prescribing practices, perceptions about prescription drug abuse among patients, and training relevant to pain management and addictions. Methods A web‐based, cross‐sectional questionnaire was administered to practicing dentist members of the National Dental Practice‐Based Research Network (PBRN; N = 822) and linked with network enrollment questionnaire data regarding p…
Characteristics and Life Experiences Associated With Receiving a Rape Disclosure Within a National Telephone Household Probability Sample of Women
Disclosure of rape to informal support sources is relatively common, but not well understood. This study expands our limited knowledge of disclosure recipients’ experience by examining associations between their sociodemographic and life experiences with receipt of a rape disclosure and encouragement of the victim to formally report her assault. Over 35% of the 3,001 community‐residing women in this national sample reported receiving a rape discl…
College Women’s Experiences With Rape Disclosure
Disclosure of a rape to informal support sources (e.g., friends) is a relatively common experience, but it is not well understood. This study expands our limited knowledge of the characteristics and life experiences of disclosure recipients among a national sample of 2,000 female college students. Over 40% of respondents reported having received a rape disclosure, and more than two thirds of these recipients encouraged victims to formally report …
Does Encouragement by Others Increase Rape Reporting? Findings From a National Sample of Women
Our study explores the role of victims' consultation with others about whether or not to report their rape to police. Three groups were observed within this sample of 435 rape victims from a national telephone household probability sample of women: those who did not consult with anyone about reporting ( n = 364), those who consulted with someone and were encouraged to report to police ( n = 40), and those who consulted with someone and were not e…
Disaster Impact Across Cultural Groups
The current study extends knowledge regarding the differential impact of natural disasters among White, African American, and Latino survivors of Hurricane Ike through its use of a large, regional sample recruited via representative sampling procedures to examine the associations between cultural identification and disaster impact, including loss, damage, and negative mental health outcomes. Consistent with previous research, results indicated di…
Relations between Loss of Services and Psychiatric Symptoms in Urban and Non-Urban Settings following a Natural Disaster
Disasters have been associated with both acute and prolonged distress and significant post-disaster psychiatric symptoms. These outcomes may be further complicated by extended periods without vital services and supplies, such as electricity and drinking water. The present study investigated the relations between post-disaster loss of services and psychiatric symptoms in urban/non-urban disaster victims. Random-digit-dial methodology was used to i…
Is Reporting of Rape on the Rise? A Comparison of Women With Reported Versus Unreported Rape Experiences in the National Women’s Study-Replication
Rape affects one in seven women nationwide. Historically, most rape victims do not report rape to law enforcement. Research is needed to identify barriers to reporting and correlates of reporting to guide policy recommendations that address such barriers. We investigated the prevalence of reporting rape among a national sample of women ( N = 3,001) interviewed in 2006. The study also examined predictors of reporting as well as barriers to reporti…
Examination of General Health Following Typhoon Xangsane
An individual's health status immediately following a disaster may predict long-term morbidity and mortality. However, relative to the growing literature on postdisaster mental health, less is known about physical health outcomes, particularly in developing countries. Unlike most studies, the current investigation obtained physical health data both before and after Typhoon Xangsane, which struck the Da Nang province of Vietnam in 2006, and relate…
Self-rated health in relation to rape and mental health disorders in a National sample of women
Overall health status is associated with long-term physical morbidity and mortality. Existing research on the correlates of mental health effects of rape suggests that rape victims are at higher risk for poor overall health status. Little is known, however, about how different rape tactics may relate to health status in rape victims. Our aim was to examine prevalence and correlates of self-rated health in a community sample of women, with particu…
