The purpose of this study is to test whether help-seeking attitudes by MMT patients are associated with continued substance use.Method:…
Associations Between Substance Use Disorders and Suicidal Ideation
Suicide is ranked as the second leading cause of death among emerging adults (aged 18–25 years). The purpose of this study was to test the associations between substance use disorders and suicidal ideation while controlling for religiosity and depression, among Latino emerging adults. Participants were 3,372 Latino, noninstitutionalized, U.S. residents aged 18- to 25-year-old who participated in the 2011 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Bi…
Nicotine maintenance for smokers in methadone treatment
Patients of methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) exhibit an exceedingly high prevalence of tobacco use and disproportionately suffer from tobacco-related illnesses and mortality. A number of studies have sought to target MMT smokers with cessation interventions utilizing a variety of behavioral and pharmacological treatments. Such efforts have struggled to attain even modest rates of cessation at follow-up, suggesting a need for novel approaches…
Elevated cholesterol among African American adults
Objectives: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) affects 47% of African-American adults (AAs) in the United States. Elevated cholesterol, the greatest risk factor for CVD, is highly prevalent among AAs, potentially as the result of engagement in behavioral risk factors. Religiosity has been associated with a beneficial effect in health promoting behaviors, yet findings have been mixed depending on methods employed. Religious health fatalism, defined as '…
Counseling Psychology and Substance Use
Substance use is a pervasive public health problem for which millions of Americans will access treatment. Training, practice, and research in substance use traditionally have not been a focus for counseling psychologists. Thus, many in our field do not feel adequately trained to work with clients who have substance use disorders. Counseling psychologists need to remain viable in a rapidly changing health care environment where treatment for subst…
Alcohol Use Severity Among Hispanic Emerging Adults in Higher Education
This was the first known study to examine the association of cultural congruity with alcohol use. Findings highlight the value of examining contextual factors of culture and moving beyond reductive measures of cultural orientation
Alcohol use severity and depressive symptoms among late adolescent Hispanics
Life transitions and smoking among Asian Americans
Mental health, physical health problems, and drinking among Latino older adults
Asian Americans’ proportion of life in the United States and suicide ideation
Although the past decade has witnessed a growth in research on Asian Americans’ suicide-related outcomes, previous studies have tended not to address within-group ethnic variability among Asian Americans. Therefore, this study examined ethnic differences in suicide ideation in a nationally representative sample of Asian Americans that included the six largest Asian American ethnic groups— Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnames…
Latino subgroup as a moderator of the relationship between language usage and alcohol use in a national sample of Latino emerging adults
Emerging adulthood represents a period of increased risk for alcohol use. For Latino emerging adults, less is known regarding the role cultural variables play in alcohol use behaviors. Research in this area has primarily been conducted using Latino college student samples and/or a single Latino subgroup. This study investigates Latino subgroup as a moderator of the relationship between language usage and alcohol use variables, using a nationally-…
Relationships Between Child Emotional and Behavioral Symptoms and Caregiver Strain and Parenting Stress
Children with emotional and behavioral disturbance often have difficulties in multiple symptom domains. This study investigates the relationships between child symptoms and caregiver strain and parenting stress among 177 youth and their caregivers participating in a school-based system of care. Youth were grouped by symptom domain and included those with low scores on both internalizing and externalizing symptoms, those with only high internalizi…
Bullying among adolescent football players
Identifying practices of masculinity socialization that contribute to the establishment of gender privilege can help address violence and bullying in schools (Connell, 1996). Because the sport of football is considered an important contributor to masculinity construction, establishing peer networks, and creating hierarchies of student status, this study examined the influence of social norms (i.e., moral atmosphere, meanings of adolescent masculi…
Academics and Substance Use among Latino Adolescents
This study investigated the relationship between academic factors and past-year alcohol, cigarette, and marijuana use in an adolescent sample of Latinos. Secondary data analysis was conducted using a subsample of Latino adolescents (N=2,593) from the 2006 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. School connectedness and parental involvement in school were protective across all substances. Fighting in school increased the risk for use of all substa…
The Influence of Personality Disorder Indication, Social Support, and Grief on Alcohol and Cocaine Use among HIV-Positive Adults Coping with Aids-Related Bereavement
Psychiatric, Family, and Ethnicity-Related Factors That Can Impact Treatment Utilization Among Hispanic Substance Abusing Adolescents
There is great significance to improving our understanding of predictors of treatment utilization among Hispanic substance abusing youth. One hundred and ten Hispanic substance abusing adolescents and their parents participated in a study of treatment utilization. Analyses showed that adolescents with lower numbers of externalizing disorders (χ 2 = 4.18, df = 1, p 2 = 8.73, df = 2, p .05), predicted overall treatment utilization (residential + ou…
