Rural‐urban divide in risk perception of LSD
BACKGROUND: Recent legislative initiatives in the United States have focused on the medical and legal status of psychedelics, prompting interest in understanding public perceptions of their risks. This study investigates rural-urban differences in the perception of LSD and cannabis risks using national survey data. METHODS: Data from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) between 2015 and 2021 were analyzed. Logistic regression models…
Advancing new metrics for wildfire smoke exposure
Wildfire activity is increasing globally due to climate change, with implications for air quality and public health. Fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) from wildfire smoke contributes to cardiorespiratory morbidity and mortality, adverse birth outcomes, mental health stressors, and disruptions to food security and traditional livelihoods. However, quantifying health risks remains difficult due to sparse monitoring, challenges in isolating wildfire…
How do psychedelics impact people with a history of non-affective psychosis? A qualitative study
Psychedelics might have heterogeneous impacts on people with NAPD, including both risks for harm and potential benefits. Our findings may assist in the development of safety and tolerability trials, highlighting the need for more nuanced work that examines how psychedelics impact people with NAPD
What Factors Cause Youth to Reject Violent Extremism? Results of an Exploratory Analysis in the West Bank
Instead of examining the factors that lead to radicalization and the commission of terrorist acts, this report empirically addresses the topic of why youth reject violent extremism. To do this, the authors focus on the Palestinian West Bank. The report begins with a theoretical model and then tests the model with data gathered through ten structured interviews with politicians and a survey of 600 Palestinian youth
From well-being to positive mental health
Provider Perceptions of Pharmacy Management
Objective: The objective of this study was to contrast experiences and opinion of providers in military treatment facilities, where a single formulary is used, with those of community providers where multiple formularies and preferred lists are commonly encountered. Study Design: We conducted cross-sectional surveys. Setting: The study was conducted at military and community practices that serve military beneficiaries. Participants: We studied ra…
Army Biometric Applications
The U.S. Army has a growing need to control access to its systems in times of both war and peace. In wartime, the Army's dependence on information as a tactical and strategic asset requires the Army to carefully control its battlefield networks. From logistics flows to intelligence on enemy forces, the Army depends on confining access to its data to authorized personnel. This need for access control is also critical at the weapon system level. Ac…
