Monitoring and evaluating capacity building activities in low and middle income countries
The hubs were successful in providing CB recipients with a wide range of CB activities. The challenge remains to ensure ongoing CB of mental health researchers in LMICs, and in particular, to sustain the CB efforts of the five hubs after the termination of NIMH funding
Sexual risk reduction among non-injection drug users
We conducted a randomized controlled trial of a sexual risk-reduction intervention targeting non-injection drug users (NIDUs) and members of their drug-use/sexual networks (N=270). The intervention was based primarily on the social-influencing approach, and was delivered in four sessions. Sexual risk behaviors were examined at baseline, and 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the completion of the intervention using the vaginal equivalent episodes (VEE)…
Adverse Childhood Events and Lifetime Alcohol Dependence
Objectives. We sought to study the association between adverse events occurring in childhood and adolescence and lifetime alcohol dependence in a representative sample of American adults. Methods. With data from the National Epidemiologic Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions, we conducted logistic regression multivariate analyses to examine the impact of adverse events occurring in childhood (aged Results. Adverse childhood events were associ…
Course and Severity of Maternal Depression
HIV prevention with severely mentally ill men
We conducted a randomised clinical trial to test the efficacy of an enhanced version of an intervention previously shown to reduce HIV sexual risk behaviours among men with severe mental illness. One-hundred-and-forty-nine subjects aged 18-59 years were randomly assigned to the experimental or control conditions. Sexual risk behaviours were assessed every three months for 12-months. The primary analysis compared experimental and control groups wi…
Externalizing Behaviors among Children of HIV Seropositive Former and Current Drug Users
Offspring of Depressed Parents
OBJECTIVE: This study was a 20-year follow-up of offspring of depressed and nondepressed parents to determine the magnitude and continuity of the risk of parental depression to the offspring. METHOD: The authors followed 151 offspring of moderately to severely depressed parents or nonpsychiatrically ill comparison subjects for about 20 years, to a mean age of 35 years. Four interviews and diagnostic assessments from childhood or adolescence to ad…
Psychiatric symptoms and substance use disorders in a nationally representative sample of American adolescents involved with foster care
The impact of substance dependence on HIV sexual risk-reduction among men with severe mental illness
We explored the impact of substance dependence on the efficacy of an HIV sexual risk reduction intervention previously shown to be effective among men with severe mental illness by comparing rates of high-risk sexual behaviors among men with (n = 26) and without (n = 31) a lifetime history of substance dependence. We sub-divided subjects by alcohol and drug dependence status, comparing each intervention sub-group to the corresponding control sub-…
Reasons given for disclosure of maternal HIV status to children
The parent disclosure interview
As the number of HIV-infected women and children in the USA has increased, clinicians and researchers have debated the benefits and risks of disclosure of parental HIV status to children. Disclosure is usually ascertained through interviews of unknown reliability. Given the need to advance knowledge regarding the benefits and risks of disclosure of parental HIV status to children, a reliable and comprehensive disclosure interview is needed. The P…
Forced migration and resettlement
The Abused and Neglected Foster Child
Behavioral and emotional problems have been observed in emotionally vulnerable children in foster care under certain circumstances. A common pattern involves the unpredictable appearance of a previously absent or unavailable natural parent. Such an occurrence precipitates the reawakening of the child’s ambivalent feelings toward both natural and foster parents as well as their fears of abandonment. This frequently leads to behavior that is opposi…
