Prevention and Intervention on the Care Continuum
Historically, there has been a palpable schism between “preventionists” and “interventionists” in the field of social work. Although great strides have been made in evidence-based pursuits in both areas, very little overlap has been explored. In fact, the two realms are often viewed as being in competition with one another for resources, agency priorities, and funding. At the risk of recreating this dichotomy, we first examine these two distinct …
The New DSM-5

The End of a Decade
It is the eve of the year 2000, the beginning of a brand new decade and the new millennium. Hope is in the air. Change is palpable. The nation's biggest concern seems to be Y2K and what will happen to the country's computer systems. We worry about the outcome. We form task forces, committees, and subcommittees. We reset our computers. We celebrate the new millennium. Our computers hum along with Auld Lang Syne, and we greet the dawn of a new era.…
Intimate Partner Violence and Psychological Health in a Sample of Asian and Caucasian Women
Family-Based Treatment Models Targeting Substance Use and High-Risk Behaviors Among Adolescents
Recent reviews of services for families with youths coping with a wide variety of problems have strongly urged inclusion of families in all services. This manuscript will review family-based intervention models that have considerable empirical support for treating adolescent substance abuse and have demonstrated success in preventing substance use. Major interventions reviewed include: Multisystemic Family Therapy, Strengthening Families Program,…
Attitudes Toward Rape
The purpose of this study is to investigate differences in attitudes toward rape between Asian and Caucasian college students. The Attitudes Toward Rape scale was used to measure beliefs about rape in a convenience sample of 169 college students. Three items regarding stranger rape myths were added. Findings suggest that Asian students are more likely than Caucasian students to believe women should be held responsible for preventing rape and to v…
Couples Who Care
Objective: The pilot study examined the effectiveness of a psychoeducational group intervention for HIV/AIDS, serodiscordant, heterosexual couples. Method: A quasi-experimental pretest posttest design was used to examine depression, anxiety, and marital satisfaction of couples in which one spouse was HIV positive and the other spouse was negative. Results: Univariate analyses of covariance indicated significant differences between the experimenta…
Reducing depression, anxiety, and trauma of male inmates
Although the growth rate for HIV/AIDS for incarcerated people is nearly six times the rate of the U.S. population, AIDS education programs within the corrections system have been slow to develop. A quasi-experimental research study found that a 10-session psychoeducational group intervention was effective in increasing knowledge of AIDS and decreasing depression, anxiety, and trauma symptoms among male inmates in a large southeastern jail facilit…

A comparison group of heterosexual persons living with HIV/AI…
