Implementing digital interventions for co-occurring mental health and alcohol and other drug use problems in health and community settings
Mental health and alcohol and other drug use problems consistently dominate the top causes of disease burden in Australians. eHealth stands to be a key tool in addressing these issues but is not routinely well-integrated into service provision models. This study will evaluate the uptake of the digital ecosystem and website, eCliPSE [electronic Clinical Pathways to Service Excellence], developed to improve the symptoms of mental health and alcohol…
Development and Validation of the Maternal Drinking Motives Scale (M-DMS)
Background Alcohol use is a gendered behavior and motherhood is a life stage which may influence drinking motives. However, there are no drinking motive scales uniquely tailored to maternal populations. This work developed a new maternal drinking motives scale (M-DMS) and determined associations between the M-DMS and alcohol-related behavior.Methods An online observational survey (n = 534) and online test–retest survey (n = 164) were conducted wi…
Psychologically Traumatic Birth
Background Experience of trauma is a risk factor for increased alcohol use. Childbirth can be psychologically traumatic but there is minimal research investigating whether psychological birth trauma (PBT) is a risk factor for increased maternal drinking or what factors are associated with alcohol use in mothers who have and who have not experienced PBT. Method An online observational survey of mothers with ( n = 291) and without ( n = 230) experi…
Integrating Digital Solutions for Suicide Prevention
Background: Improving suicide prevention outcomes is a key priority of national and state government health policies in Australia. The mental health sector is currently facing increasing demand for services that is exceeding capacity, especially in view of the widespread negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health. Electronic Mental Health (eMH) tools are increasingly becoming available that can be used by mental health professional…
An Association Between Psychological Childbirth Trauma and Hazardous Alcohol Use
Hazardous alcohol use is increasing amongst some groups of women, yet little is known about the underlying reasons or gender-specific influences. The purpose of this study was to explore the association between psychological childbirth trauma and women’s hazardous alcohol use. We aimed to identify predictors of hazardous alcohol use given childbirth-related trauma, other life trauma (combat, natural disasters, physical or sexual assault, experien…
Covid and the South African Family
Intersections of nationality, gender, race and crime in news reporting
Differentiations and intersections
This study examines the impact of a global sports event on gender representations in media reporting. Whereas previous research on gender, sport and media has been mainly concerned with sports events in the North American or Australian context, this study investigates the British media reporting before, during and after the London Olympics 2012. Our study follows the approach of Corpus-Assisted Discourse Studies (CADS) and uses both quantitative …

Educated mother-tongue South African English
South Africa is anecdotally known for its complex system of speech varieties correlating with variables such as ethnicity, first language, class and education. These intuitions (e.g. Lass 1990) require further investigation, especially in the context of a changing South Africa where language variety plays a key role in identifying social, economic and ethnic group membership. Thus, in this research, the extent to which these variables play a role…
