The association of state‐level drug and opioid overdose deaths with the capacity of behavioural health professionals in the United States
As behavioural health occupations have diversified, more specialists such as social workers and counsellors are involved in providing substance use disorder treatment services. This study examined the association between changes in the number of different types of behavioural health professionals and changes in drug and opioid overdose deaths in the United States. Using publicly available state-level data from 2008 to 2017, we constructed multiva…
The Death of George Floyd
We have seen the horrifying cell phone and surveillance video footage of the murder of George Floyd replay again and again in the last few weeks. The aftermath begs the question why this particular murder of a Black man by a police officer has sparked the international response so few have received.1 Scores of other Black men, women, and children have been killed by police since the 2014 murder of Eric Garner in New York City, in which he suffere…
Disparities in Access to Easy-to-Use Services for Children with Special Health Care Needs
Conscientious Refusal or Discrimination against Gay Parents
Case Dr. Smith had been one of four members of a pediatric family practice for 19 years. Over the years, she had greatly enjoyed seeing her patients and getting to know their families, and she took pleasure in the routines of her practice, the cycles of back-to-school checkups and vaccination schedules, the Christmas cards from patients that accumulated on a bulletin board every December. She felt she’d long since found her rhythm as a pediatrici…
Displacement as a predictor of functional impairment in tsunami-exposed children
Thirty months after the Indian Ocean tsunami of 26 December 2004, thousands of families in Aceh Province, Indonesia, remained in temporary barracks while sanitation conditions and non-governmental organisation support deteriorated. This study sought to determine the factors associated with functional impairment in a sample of 138 displaced and non-displaced Acehnese children. Using multivariate linear regression models, it was found that displace…
The living environment and children's fears following the Indonesian tsunami
The tsunami that struck South-east Asia on 26 December 2004 left more than 500,000 people in Aceh, Indonesia, homeless and displaced to temporary barracks and other communities. This study examines the associations between prolonged habitation in barracks and the nature of fears reported by school-age children and adolescents. In mid-2007, 30 months after the tsunami, the authors interviewed 155 child and parent dyads. Logistic regression analysi…

The Association Between Health Risk Behaviors and Sexual Orientation Among a School-based Sample of Adolescents
Objective. This study is one of the first to examine the association between sexual orientation and health risk behaviors among a representative, school-based sample of adolescents. Design. This study was conducted on an anonymous, representative sample of 4159 9th- to 12th-grade students in public high schools from Massachusetts' expanded Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1995 Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Sexual orientation was determine…
Patterns of response in families of chronically disabled children
Interviews with parents of 1,726 special education students yielded reports of stress that varied significantly by type of disability and by maternal education level; family involvement in the special education process also varied significantly by level of education. Clinically important differences in family perceptions and coping mechanisms are described and the need for better child care provisions and involvement of low-income parents in the …
Variation in Special Education Classification Across School Districts
Using independent information collected from the parents and teachers of a stratified random sample of 829 special education students, we compared the classification practices of five major metropolitan school districts. We examined the functional levels of students with the same labels living in different districts and tested whether differences in functional status were associated with the prevalence of the classification. To determine whether …
Health Care Access and Use Among Handicapped Students in Five Public School Systems
The authors studied the health care access and utilization patterns for a stratified random sample of 1,726 special education students in five large metropolitan school systems. Overall, 7% of the special education students had no regular source of care, 26% had no regular physician, and 38% had not visited a physician in the previous year; 13% had no health insurance. Each of these measures was worse for nonwhite and poorer children as well as f…
