Psychosocial and behavioral correlates of anxiety symptoms in a sample of HIV-positive, methamphetamine-using men who have sex with men
Studies show high rates of psychiatric symptoms among methamphetamine users; however, little information exists regarding methamphetamine use and anxiety. This study investigated psychosocial and behavioral correlates of anxiety symptoms in a sample of 245 HIV-positive men having sex with men (MSM) who were enrolled in a sexual risk-reduction intervention. In a multiple regression analysis, anxiety symptoms were associated with homelessness, rece…
Correlates of Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder in a Sample of HIV-Positive, Methamphetamine-using Men Who have Sex with Men
Substance use has been identified as a risk factor for elevated levels of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). This study examined methamphetamine use and sexual risk behaviors as correlates of OCD in a sample of 245 HIV-positive men having sex with men (MSM) in San Diego, CA. In a logistic regression analysis, OCD was associated with greater frequency of methamphetamine use, more depressive symptoms, seeking out risky venues and risky sexual par…
Chronic life stress, acute stress events, and substance availability in relapse
This study evaluated additive and interactive models of the effects of acute stressful life events, chronic life stressors, and immediate substance availability on substance use following alcohol and drug treatment. One hundred and two veterans meeting DSM-IV criteria for alcohol, cannabis, or stimulant dependence at treatment entry completed quarterly interviews for one year. Severe chronic stressors and substance availability predicted an incre…
Factor structure of the Bulimia Test-Revised in college women from four ethnic groups
The factor structure of the Bulimia Test--Revised (BULIT-R) was investigated using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The sample consisted of 2,671 female college students (African American, Asian American, Caucasian American, and Latino American). Reliability coefficients were excellent across groups. African Americans scored significantly lower on the BULIT-R than Caucasian Americans. Across groups, CFA an…
Integrated Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Versus Twelve-Step Facilitation Therapy for Substance-Dependent Adults with Depressive Disorders
In a randomized trial, this study compared the longitudinal outcome patterns of veterans (N = 66) with substance use disorders and major depressive disorder receiving standard pharmacotherapy and either 12-Step Facilitation Therapy (TSF) or disorder-specific Integrated Cognitive Behavioral Treatment (ICBT). Depression and substance use were assessed at intake, during and after treatment using the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale and the Time Line…
Development of a Brief Diagnostic Screen for Panic Disorder in Primary Care
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of a brief screening tool for panic disorder in the primary care setting. METHODS: A total of 1476 primary care outpatients in three primary care medical clinics on the West Coast of the United States were studied. Patients completed a brief self-report measure, the five-item Autonomic Nervous System Questionnaire (ANS), while in the waiting room. The presence of DSM-IV panic disor…

A Note on Trends in Answers to Cattell Personality Questionnaires by Scottish Subjects
Answers to personality questionnaires by eight groups totalling 1733 subjects from south and south‐west Scotland show marked trends towards ‘anxiety’ and less definite tendencies towards ‘introversion’ by comparison with American norms for the tests. The result for introversion confirms that of a previous study of British subjects by Cattell & Warburton (1961), but the result for anxiety is idiosyncratic and requires confirmation by other studies…
