The impact of individual and school-related factors on substance use among American Indian Youth
Substance use during adolescence poses serious developmental risks, particularly among underserved populations such as American Indian (AI) youth. This study uses multilevel modeling to examine the relationship between school-level factors and the likelihood of AI youth substance use, accounting for student-level variation. Self-report surveys were collected from 8th, 10th, and 12th-grade students during the 2004 spring semester. Analyses focused…

Immigration Status and Crime
Most studies assessing the relationship between immigration and crime rely on official data and tend to examine immigration status as citizen versus non-citizen. The categorization of non-citizen does not often distinguish between individuals with different statuses. The present study relies on self-report data from a sample of predominantly Hispanic immigrant respondents to explore whether undocumented immigrants, relative to U.S. citizens, are …

Immigrants' Perceptions of the Police
Though widely assessed, research on perceptions of procedural justice and police legitimacy has predominantly focused on assessing the general population and has neglected racial and ethnic minorities, as well as other historically marginalized people. Among the neglected groups are undocumented immigrants from Latin America. The present study examines a community sample of undocumented and documented immigrants ( n = 208) residing in a large cou…
Challenges to Identifying Labor Trafficking at the Local Level
The present study focuses on local efforts in two California counties that are developing strategic responses to better identify and respond to labor trafficking in their communities. Data from 15 semi-structured qualitative interviews with service providers, law enforcement, and other key stakeholders are analyzed to explore the challenges they face in identifying victims of labor trafficking and the actions they are taking to address these chal…
Family Structure and Delinquency in the English-Speaking Caribbean
Growing up in a household without two parents present is an established risk factor for youth delinquency. However, much of the research on family structure and delinquency derives from U.S. samples, limiting applicability to the developing world. The present study explores the role of traditional and non-traditional family structures on self-reported delinquency in eight English-speaking Caribbean nations. We further examine the moderating role …
Risk and protective factors related to alcohol and drug use amongst American Indian youth
The goal of this study is to assess the relevance of the Social Development Model (SDM) in predicting substance use across American Indian (AI) youth. We rely on self-reported data collected as part of the 2004 Arizona Youth Survey (AYS). The final sample included 2,912 AI students from 169 schools in 15 counties. Results indicate relatively high levels of alcohol and drug use amongst AI youth. Overall, we find the SDM as a promising framework fo…
Global surveillance of trends in cancer survival 2000–14 (Concord-3)
BACKGROUND: In 2015, the second cycle of the CONCORD programme established global surveillance of cancer survival as a metric of the effectiveness of health systems and to inform global policy on cancer control. CONCORD-3 updates the worldwide surveillance of cancer survival to 2014. METHODS: CONCORD-3 includes individual records for 37·5 million patients diagnosed with cancer during the 15-year period 2000-14. Data were provided by 322 populatio…

Cluster analyses revealed four similar kinds of drinking partnerships: (a) congruent light and infrequent, (b) discrepant male heavy and frequent, (c) discrepant female heavy and infrequent, and (d) congruent moderate/…
