Abstract:
Background: Smoking and alcohol consumption have become major public health problems among Chinese women. In this study we explore the behavioral trends in smoking and alcohol consumption of Chinese women. We also explored the changes in the sociodemographic factors that affect the smoking and alcohol consumption behaviors of Chinese women at different reproductive stages. Methods: We used the Chinese Health and Nutrition Survey data for 2004 to 2011 to investigate the trends and influential factors of tobacco and alcohol consumption among Chinese women. Data for tobacco and alcohol consumption (consumption of beer or any other alcoholic beverage and smoking of cigarettes) were extracted using questionnaires. We applied the χ2 test to examine the trends of alcohol and tobacco consumption among Chinese women over the period of 2004 to 2011. We conducted two penalized logistic regressions with age as the continuous and classification variable (18–23, 24–29, 30–44, and 45–49 years), and independent variables included residence, age, and marital status. Results: Drinking rates among Chinese women significantly changed over the period of 2004 to 2011 (p = 0.018). Age was related to tobacco consumption rates for 2009 and 2011 (p < 0.05). Marital status was associated with tobacco consumption rates for 2004, 2009, and 2011 (p < 0.05). Tobacco and alcohol consumption rates from 2004 to 2011 were positively correlated (p < 0.05). Over the period of 2004 to 2011, alcohol consumption rates were higher among women living in urban areas than those among women living in rural areas (p < 0.05). High educational attainment was related to alcohol consumption. Educational attainment levels of secondary or primary schooling and university or above were related to alcohol consumption rates for 2004 to 2011 (p < 0.05). Employed women were more likely to consume alcohol than unemployed women in 2004, 2006, and 2011 (p < 0.05). Data from 2004 to 2011 showed that tobacco and alcohol use were correlated (p < 0.05) and that women aged 45–49 years old were more likely to consume tobacco than other women (p < 0.05); Conclusions: The drinking behavior of Chinese women changed considerably over the period of 2004 to 2011. Our results provide further insight on the smoking and drinking behaviors of Chinese women at different reproductive stages and the factors that influence such behaviors. Therefore, our findings on trends and factors that influence rates of tobacco and alcohol use allow for a better understanding of the smoking and drinking behaviors of Chinese women.

Abstract:
Many studies on young adults’ motivations for drinking overlook the symbolic aspects of alcohol use. However, research indicates that young adults’ alcohol consumption is also driven by signaling motivations. Although the interest of a receiver is a necessary prerequisite of a signal, no previous studies have verified whether drinking behavior indeed attracts young adults’ attention. Therefore, we conducted two studies. A two-part eye-tracking study ( N1 = 135, N2 = 140) showed that both young men and young women pay special visual attention to male and female drinking behavior. Additionally, a recall experiment ( N = 321) confirmed that observed male and female drinking is better remembered than observed nonsignaling, functional behavior. Moreover, alcoholic beverages also receive special attention, as they were recalled better than other functional products, and also nonalcoholic drinks similar in color and shape. In summary, the experiments clearly showed that male and female drinking behavior can be used as a signal, as both behaviors clearly function as an attention-attracting cue. Additionally, as alcoholic beverages draw more attention than nonalcoholic drinks, this attention is clearly linked to the alcohol element of the drinking behavior.

Abstract:
Introduction: The present study aims to culturally adapt and explore the psychometric properties of Portuguese version of the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test, among university students.Material and Methods: A validation, cross-sectional study, with data collected through a questionnaire comprised of sociodemographic and substance consumption measures (Fagerström test for Nicotine Dependence; Drinking Motives Questionnaire – Revised, and The Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test version 3.1). The sample was composed by 338 students (51.8% male), with a mean age of 20.6 years old (standard deviation = 3.4). To examine the factor structure, an exploratory factor analysis was performed. The internal consistency and convergent validity were also evaluated.Results: The ‘Tobacco’ and ‘Cannabis’ subscales were composed by 1 factor and ‘Alcoholic Beverages’ by 2 factors. Internal consistency ranged between 0.556 and 0.842 (Cronbach’s ɑ). Statistically significant associations were observed between being a current smoker, binge-drinking and drinking motives with hazardous consumption (subscales ‘Tobacco’, ‘Alcoholic Beverages’ and ‘Cannabis’).Discussion: The observed associations between hazardous consumption, consumption motives and behaviors, may be explained by the relation between alcohol consumption (as part of the academic experience) with substances consumption behavior and polydrug consumption, supporting the adequate convergent validity observed. Also, peer pressure may influence these consumption behaviors.Conclusion: The Portuguese version of the the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (‘Tobacco’, ‘Alcoholic Beverages’ and ‘Cannabis’) presented satisfactory psychometric characteristics, showing that it is an adequate instrument to assess hazardous consumption behaviors among university students.

Abstract:
In both developing and underdeveloped countries there has been a worrying increase in the number of young people drinking alcohol; this public health problem warrants more research. This multilevel study analyzed the influence of drinking refusal self-efficacy, peers’ motivation, and protective behavioral strategies as predictors of alcohol consumption in a sample of 261 young people arranged into 52 social groups (peers who regularly shared leisure activities). A series of questionnaires were administered individually to evaluate beliefs and behaviors related to alcohol consumption at both individual level (drinking refusal self-efficacy) and peer level (enhancement motivation and protective behavioral strategies). The results showed that the individual variable (drinking refusal self-efficacy) predicted alcohol consumption behaviors. The multilevel design allowed us to evaluate the direct and moderated effects of peers’ enhancement motivation and protective behavioral strategies on the relationship between self-efficacy and drinking behavior. These results show the importance of developing cognitive, behavioral, and educational intervention programs to increase young people and university students’ confidence and ability to use protective strategies, in order to reduce alcohol use.

Abstract:
Adolescence is a vulnerable period and facilitates the start of risk behaviors, for instance the use of drugs. This study aims to describe the differences between antisocial behavior and alcohol consumption according to gender, age and education; as well as to discover the relation between antisocial behavior and alcohol consumption in 1,221 school adolescents from Monterrey - Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The findings reveal differences in antisocial behavior according to gender. Evidences showed that 41.3% of the students had consumed alcohol at sometime in their lives, and that differences exist in alcohol consumption according to age and education. Finally, the study found positive and significant relations between antisocial behavior and alcohol consumption (r s = .272, p <.001).

Abstract:
The scope of this paper is to assess the attitudes and behaviors regarding alcohol use and analyze associated factors among schoolchildren in public schools of Campina Grande in the state of Paraíba. A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 574 adolescents, with the application of a semi-structured questionnaire. The chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used (5% level of significance). Among the adolescents 54.5% had drunk alcohol and 6.7% of them were heavy drinkers. The majority of them drank alcohol between 11 and 14 years of age (42.8%); 26.3% of the adolescents purchased alcoholic beverages; and beer was the most drink most consumed (43.8%). The risk of alcohol drinking was higher between 16 and 19 years of age (OR = 4.44; p < 0.001), among those without religious affiliation (OR = 4.36; p = 0.002), among those who worked (OR = 2.13; p = 0.012) and among those who had a fair to poor relationship with their father (OR = 2.18; p = 0.010). The results of this study underscore the complexity of this issue and the need to pay particular attention to the adolescent population. Public policies alone are not sufficient. Support from family, school and society is essential to curtail early alcohol use and its consequences.

Abstract:
The relationship between academic performance and alcohol consumption among students remains inconsistent. We assessed this relationship, controlling for sociodemographic characteristics across seven faculties at the University of Turku (1177 undergraduates). An online questionnaire assessed: seven sociodemographic characteristics (age, gender, year/discipline of study, accommodation type, being in intimate relationship, parental education, and income sufficiency); two perceived academic performance (students’ subjective importance of achieving good grades and students’ appraisal of their academic performance compared to peers); and six alcohol consumption behaviors (length of time, amount consumed, frequency, heavy episodic drinking, problem drinking, and possible alcohol dependence). Simple logistic regression assessed relationships between sociodemographic and academic variables with alcohol consumption behaviors; multiple logistic regression assessed the same relationships after controlling for all other variables. Students reported long duration and large amount of drinking (46% and 50%), high frequency of drinking (41%), heavy episodic drinking (66%), problem drinking (29%), and possible alcohol dependence (9%). After controlling, gender was associated with all alcohol consumption behaviors, followed by religiosity (associated with four alcohol behaviors), living situation, marital status, age (each associated with two alcohol behaviors), and parental education and year of study (each associated with one alcohol behavior). Study discipline, income sufficiency, importance of achieving good grades, and academic performance compared to peers were not associated with any alcohol behaviors. Universities need to assess problem drinking and alcohol use disorders among students. Prevention strategies are required to reduce risk. Health promotion efforts could focus on beliefs and expectations about alcohol and target student groups at risk for more efficient and successful efforts.

Abstract:
Alcohol consumption is a major public health problem facing universities. The objectives of the present study were to investigate alcohol consumption and the behaviors associated with it among Romanian university medical students, with particular reference to sex differences, behavioral consequences, and lifestyle patterns. We performed a cross-sectional study on 722 medical students (60.4% females; 39.6% males); the participants filled out a validated questionnaire containing the following items co-occurring with alcohol consumption: smoking, illicit drug use, energy drink consumption, and other behavioral drinking consequences. Physical activity was estimated using the IPAQ questionnaire. We statistically analyzed the interrelation between alcohol consumption and target factors. The present study showed a high percentage of at-risk drinkers among male (15.0%) and female medical students (14.9%) in the studied group. Male students reported higher illicit drug use and physical activity than female students, but the at-risk female drinkers’ group consumed more drugs than the low-risk female drinkers. Both male and female drinkers engaged in other risky behaviors correlated with drinking (e.g., smoking, low academic performance, and driving a car after drinking). Public health policies, strategies, and interventions should be initiated to reduce alcohol consumption and associated behaviors in medical students.

Abstract:
: Background. There is international concern about the negative consequences for health related to young people’s alcohol consumption. Peer relationships can play a positive and protective role to cope with risky behaviors associated with alcohol consumption. Objective. This study investigated the influence of protective behavioral strategies (PBS) on alcohol consumption and the moderating role of drinking-group gender composition and drinking-group size. Methods. The sample comprised 286 youths (mean age = 23.49; SD = 2.78; 67.5% female). Participants reported their protective behavioral strategies, their alcohol consumption and the size (overall mean = 7.44; SD = 3.83) and gender composition (62.58% mixed; 19.93% all-female; 9.8% all-male) of their social drinking groups. The mean sizes of mixed, all-female, and all-male groups were 8.27, 5.34, and 6.2, respectively. Results. Data showed that women consume less alcohol and use more protective strategies than men, particularly those strategies directed at avoiding negative consequences. Furthermore, the number of men in a group influences protective strategies and consumption, therefore drinking-group gender composition moderates the relationship between protective strategies and alcohol consumption. The more protective strategies that young adults use, the lower their alcohol consumption. This relationship is moderated by the size of the group. Conclusion. Strategies to prevent risky drinking behavior should focus on both PBS shared by drinking-group members and the training in individual PBS associated with drinking behavior. Finally, taking into account the relationship between drinking-group gender composition and protective behavioral strategies for alcohol consumption, a positive protector role for individual and group habits in relation to alcohol consumption is discussed.

Abstract:

While not all emerging adults engage in risky behavior, for those who do, there may be a pattern based on family structure, socioeconomic status, and religiosity. The goal of the present study was to investigate gender differences in addictive risk-taking behavior while examining the relation between family structure, socioeconomic status, religiosity and addictive risk-taking behavior in emerging adults. Although many risk-taking behaviors are not addictive in nature, the focus of the present study was of those which are. Addictive risk-taking behaviors, for the purposes of this study, were defined as alcohol use and smoking of cigarettes and e-cigarettes; also known as vaping. Participants filled out a self-report questionnaire measuring alcohol use and smoking habits. Religiosity was considered as a covariate of risky behavior. The Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) was used to examine alcohol use. The Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS) was used to measure addiction. The National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) was used to assess smoking behavior. The Duke University Religion Index (DUREL) was used to measure dimensions of religious involvement and religiosity. The Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale (M-C SDS) was used to assess response bias. The Family Affluence Scale II (FAS) was used to measure socioeconomic status. The Brief Sensation Seeking Scale (BSSS-8) was used to measure sensation seeking. Analyses of data were conducted utilizing regression analysis, t-tests, ANOVA, and Chi-square tests of association. The results of the study confirmed several of the factors that have been identified in previous research as being related to increased involvement in risk-taking behavior by emerging adults, and identified further gaps in research. The key findings were that males smoke and use e-cigarettes more than females, that males are more likely than females to become problem drinkers, that coming from a single-parent or two-parent household is not significantly related to engaging in risky behaviors, that having a higher socioeconomic status correlates with higher drinking rates, that religiosity does not significantly correlate with engagement in risky behaviors, that sensation seeking is significantly correlated with risky behaviors, and that race/ethnicity is not significantly correlated with risky behaviors. The most unusual findings were those related to the relationship between family structure and engagement in risky behaviors and the correlation between higher SES and higher drinking rates, as they diverged from previous findings in the literature. Overall, the study also yielded a combined model of SES, gender, and family structure that was significantly predictive of both drinking and smoking. The results of the study were not significantly skewed by social desirability. This study has both academic and practical significance in that it can inform prevention and education programs which can target these youths so this population does not engage in addictive risk-taking behaviors such as using alcohol, and cigarettes, further validate the instruments utilized in this study, and add to the body of literature relating to the theory of emerging adults and engagement in addictive risky behavior.

Abstract:
Background: Long term negative physical and mental health problems occur from the lack of appropriate interventions targeting the adult population who experienced adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and partake in risky alcohol consumption behaviors. Objective: This study aimed to identify the risk for alcohol consumption behaviors, specifically binge drinking (BD) and any drinking (AD), among adults with a history of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Methods: Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2011–2012 data were used. Descriptive statistics were completed followed by simple and multiple logistic regression to determine the strength of association between ACEs and alcohol consumption, controlling for sociodemographic factors. Results: The final adjusted sample size was 69,793. Adults who experienced household abuse were 30% more likely to BD (Odds Ratio (OR): 1.30, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.20–1.41) and 21% more likely for AD (OR: 1.21, 95% CI: 1.14–1.28) in the past month. Males were over two times more likely to BD (OR: 2.12, 95% CI: 1.96–2.29) and 60% more likely for AD (OR: 1.60, 95% CI: 1.51–1.69) in the past month compared to females. Individuals who completed some college were at higher risk of BD (OR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.26–1.82), whereas those who graduated college were nearly two and a half times more likely to report AD in the past month (OR: 2.27, 95% CI: 1.99–2.59) compared to individuals with less than high school education. Conclusion: Adults who experienced household abuse, are male, or possess at least some college education are at increased risk for BD and AD.

Abstract:
Alcohol abuse/dependence frequently co-occurs with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and conduct disorder (CD). Furthermore, crime studies have generally found that alcohol is involved in over 50% of violent crimes, and experimental studies support the notion that acute alcohol consumption indirectly increases the likelihood of aggressive and disinhibited behaviors in the laboratory. However, the mechanisms underlying alcohol's association with such behaviors remain unclear. The goals of this thesis were therefore to further elucidate potential mechanisms underlying (a) alcohol-induced aggressive, disinhibited behaviors and (b) the high comorbidity between delinquent, aggressive behaviors (characterizing CD/ASPD) and alcohol misuse/abuse/dependence. Thus, four studies were conducted, focusing on individual differences in the physiological response to alcohol intoxication. Specifically examined was the elevated heart rate (HR) response to alcohol, which is thought to reflect an increased sensitivity to alcohol-induced reward.
Results of Study I indicated that high HR Responders to alcohol self-reported increased multiple year delinquency (physical aggression, theft, and destruction of property), as well as more alcohol consumption and an increased positive subjective feeling following intoxication, as compared to low HR Responders. Furthermore, a high HR response was related to increased extraversion, disinhibition, boredom susceptibility, and total sensation seeking. Study II revealed that Aggressive Sons of Male Alcoholics (Agg-SOMAs) had the highest intoxicated HR response, and reported the most alcohol consumption, as compared to Non-Agg-SOMAs, or Agg - or Non-Agg - Non-SOMAs. Studies III and IV revealed that intoxicated high HR responders exhibited the most physical aggression (assessed by the Taylor Aggression Paradigm), as well as the most behavioral disinhibition (assessed by the Go/No-Go task) as compared to sober high HR Responders, or sober/intoxicated low HR responders.
In summary, individuals with a high HR response to alcohol appear to have an increased propensity for multiple addictive, disinhibited and aggressive behaviors. This determines a phenotype of both potential heuristic and clinical importance. These findings are discussed within the context of a hypothetical model of (a) the high comorbidity between alcohol use/misuse and aggression/ASPD, and (b) the increased likelihood of alcohol-induced aggressive, disinhibited behaviors.

Abstract:
Drunkorexia refers to a set of disordered eating behaviors that occur in the context of a drinking episode for the purpose of 1) off setting caloric intake of the alcohol or 2) increasing the effects of alcohol. The Compensatory Eating and Behaviors in Response to Alcohol Consumption Scale (CEBRACS) was developed with the purpose of measuring drunkorexia behaviors at three time points: before, during, and after a drinking episode. The purpose of this study was to further validate the measure for use in men and women by examining measurement invariance, reliability, and validity. First, single group confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) were conducted separately by gender to examine the underlying factor structure of the measure. The two groups independently showed similar factor structure. The factor structure for both men and women indicated the removal of the original CEBRACS Restriction subscale. A multi-group CFA was conducted on the modified factor structure using gender as the grouping variable. This revised measure was found to have scalar invariance suggesting that means and variances of this measure can be compared. The current study addressed several limitations of previous measurement validation studies including a large diverse sample and thorough examination of the psychometric properties of the CEBRACS. This work provides additional evidence supporting the validity of the CEBRACS and suggests measurement invariance between genders.

Abstract:
Relatively little is known regarding trait anxiety and its relationship with negative health risk behaviors such as alcohol consumption and physical inactivity in adults. This study aimed to examine whether negative health risk behaviors differ by sex and whether trait anxiety is associated with the negative health risk behaviors above and beyond sociodemographic factors and depression. Data used in the present study came from a published dataset from the Midlife in the United States 2 (MIDUS 2) study and include a sample of 1,054 adults whose age range from 34 to 84 years. There were significant sex differences in alcohol consumption, but not in physical inactivity. Age, sex, BMI, and depression were significantly associated with alcohol consumption or physical inactivity, whereas trait anxiety was not. These results suggest that sociodemographic variables and depression should be taken into consideration when studying negative health risk behaviors.
Det finns relativt lite kunskap om ångest och dess förhållande till negativa hälsobeteenden som alkoholkonsumtion och fysisk inaktivitet hos vuxna individer. Denna studie avsåg undersöka om negativa hälsobeteenden varierade beroende på kön och om ångest har en relation till negativa hälsobeteenden utöver sociodemografiska faktorer och depression. De data som användes i denna studie kommer från ett offentligt data-set från the Midlife in the United States 2-studien (MIDUS 2) som omfattar 1054 vuxna deltagare med en ålder mellan 34 och 84 år. Det påfanns signifikanta könsskillnader inom alkoholkonsumtion men inte inom fysisk inaktivitet. Variablerna ålder, kön, BMI och depression hade en signifikant koppling till alkoholkonsumtion och fysisk inaktivitet, men ett liknande samband kunde inte påfinnas mellan ångest och de två hälsobeteendena. Detta indikerar således att man bör studera sociodemografiska variabler och depression i relation till negativa hälsobeteenden då det verkar finnas en tydlig koppling.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess the relationships between energy drink consumption (with and without alcohol) and other risky behaviors; students’ overall awareness level of the risks for consuming energy drinks; and overall behavioral intention to consume energy drinks among college students at the University of Kentucky. A total of 277 students enrolled during the Spring 2012 semester responded to the online survey, 46.5% (n=129) of which were considered energy drink users. Students classified as energy drink users participated in other risky behaviors more often than non-users (p=0.001). In addition, energy drink users exhibited a higher awareness level for the risks associated with energy drink consumption both with (p=0.000) and without (p=0.000) alcohol. Those who were more aware of the risks associated with energy drink consumption, both with (p=0.001) and without (p=0.001) alcohol, were found to have increased intention to consume energy drinks within the next month compared to those with lower awareness levels. There is a need for future research on this topic, as well as a need for expanded education and intervention programming for college students regarding the risks of energy drink consumption (with and without alcohol).

Abstract:
Because of their complex social structures, behaviors, and genetic similarities to humans, nonhuman primates are useful for studying how genetic factors influence alcohol consumption. The neurobiological systems that influence addiction vulnerability may do so by acting on alcohol response, reward pathways, behavioral dyscontrol, and vulnerability to stress and anxiety. Rhesus macaques show individual differences in alcohol response and temperament, and such differences are influenced by genetic variants that are similar functionally to those present in humans. Genes in which variation moderates these phenotypes provide opportunities for modeling how genetic and environmental factors (i.e., stress exposure, individual’s sex, or alcohol response) interact to influence alcohol consumption. Studies in primates may also reveal selective factors that have driven maintenance or fixation of alleles that increase risk for alcohol use disorders in modern humans.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper aims to present the prevalence and trends of adolescents’ risky behaviours in Bulgaria over a 13-year period (2006–2018). Current tobacco smoking, drinking and alcohol abuse, current cannabis use, early sexual experience, and aggression towards schoolmates (bullying and fighting at school) are in the focus of research interest, using national representative data from the three waves (2006, 2014, 2018) of the Health Behaviour among School-Aged Children (HBSC) study. The descriptive and multivariate analysis reveals trends of decrease in smoking tobacco, excessive alcohol consumption (drunkenness), involvement in a physical fight, and the early start of sexual life as well as trends of an increase in regular alcohol consumption and cannabis use in a lifetime across the years. Additionally, the family context is a significant gradient in defining the prevalence of adolescents’ risk behaviours, in particular adolescents living in one-parent families and coming from high FAS families in Bulgaria are more likely to report risky behaviours compared to young people from low FAS families. The last part of the paper discusses the key areas for policy intervention in youth health and wellbeing in Bulgaria.

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: College students in the United States widely report using alcohol and cannabis as a sleep aid. Given the prevalence of sleep problems and insufficient sleep in this population, the high incidence in use and co-use of cannabis and alcohol is unsurprising. Current evidence does not support alcohol as an effective sleep aid and research on the relationship of cannabis to sleep is limited and inconsistent. Furthermore, the majority of current cannabis and sleep studies are limited to retrospective, person-level analyses even though there is a wide range of individual and day-level differences in reactivity to intoxication. PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to examine cannabis and alcohol use and their associations with sleep at both the between-person level (i.e., between-subjects comparison of chronic use behaviors) and within-person level (i.e., day-level comparison of use behaviors). METHOD: This study is a secondary analysis of longitudinal data obtained from a study characterizing the effects of simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use. Participants (n=341) completed surveys up to five times per day during two bursts of 4 weeks (54 days total) that occurred during two consecutive college semesters. Self-reported quantities of cannabis use (as number of uses) and alcohol use (as number of drinks), as well as bedtimes (night) and wake times (morning) were reported. Linear mixed models were conducted in SAS 9.4 to characterize between-person and within-person (person-mean centered) correlations of cannabis or alcohol use and sleep duration. RESULTS: Significant main effects of within-person cannabis (Estimate: 0.019, SE: 0.007, t=2.86, p=0.004) and alcohol (Estimate: -0.0402, SE: 0.0076, t=-5.28, p<0.001) use were found, as was a between-person main effect of average cannabis use (Estimate: 0.038, SE: 0.012, t=3.28, p=0.001) across the full study period. The between-person main effect of average alcohol use was not significant. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggested that generally heavier cannabis users sleep more than their non-using/generally light using counterparts and that they sleep more on nights following heavier use days. Interestingly, the relationship between alcohol and sleep differed between the between-person and within-person levels: alcohol use was dose-dependently associated with reduced sleep duration; however, in this sample, generally heavier alcohol users did not appear to differ in overall sleep duration compared to generally lighter alcohol users. Importantly, this sample included a wide range of substance users, none of whom were in treatment for a cannabis use disorder (CUD) or alcohol use disorder (AUD). Whether these patterns of dose-dependence would be observed over longer time periods or in individuals who meet criteria for CUD or AUD remains to be studied. Future studies will assess the effects of alcohol and cannabis co-use patterns as well as timing of consumption.

Abstract:
Consumption of psychoactive substances and other addictive behaviors is a risk factor that can disrupt the good somatic, psychological, social and educational development of adolescents. The fact that many adolescents consume tobacco, alcohol, cannabis or other substances, and a significant number of them end up being diagnosed with substance use disorder and other associated disorders, requires multiple human, financial and material resources and special attention from specialists. involved in reducing the demand and supply of drugs. Addiction treatment is a complex issue, requiring a multidisciplinary approach and long-term co-optation of representatives of educational institutions, adolescents and members of local communities in which various prevention or medical, psychological or social assistance programs are carried out. Cooperation is very important for the efficient use of resources available to each party involved in the process of recovering those affected by addictive behaviors, raising awareness of the risks of continued substance use, reducing stigma, conducting interventions to meet the needs of beneficiaries, families them and the members of the community in which they live, the diversification of support services, the provision of continuous psychosocial support and the reintegration of adolescents into the family, social and educational environment.

Abstract:
Background: Impaired control over substance use is a construct that is central to addiction and appears to play an early role in the development of addictive behaviors. The Impaired Control Scale (ICS) was developed to measure impaired control over alcohol, which has been associated with problem drinking and alcohol-related problems in young adults. However, there is relatively less research regarding impaired control over cannabis, and currently there is a lack of a comprehensive and valid scale that specifically measures this construct. This study addresses this gap in the literature by introducing the Impaired Control Scale-Cannabis (ICS-C), an adaptation of the ICS designed to measure impaired control over cannabis. We conducted a preliminary examination of the factor structure, reliability, and validity of the ICS-C. Methods: An online survey was administered to introductory psychology students (N=362; 63% women; 66% White, mean age=19.91) at two Canadian Universities who reported using cannabis at least once in the past month (average frequency = 9.34 days; SD = 9.60). All participants completed the ICS and ICS-C along with measures of cannabis use and problems, including the Impaired Control subscale of the Marijuana Consequences Questionnaire (MACQ-IC). A subset of participants completed additional measures of impulsivity and self-regulation. Results: An exploratory factor analysis (EFA, with an oblique rotation) of the 25 items of the ICS-C yielded 3 factors, one of which was comprised solely of reverse keyed items (despite reverse coding items prior to the EFA). These items were trimmed from the measure and the EFA was rerun. Two factors emerged: Attempted Control (i.e., frequency of attempts to control cannabis use) and a factor comprised of items assessing both Failed Control (i.e., unsuccessful attempts in limiting cannabis use) and Perceived Control (i.e., beliefs about the ability to control cannabis use in the future). Given that the Failed and Perceived Control items unexpectedly loaded on the same factor, suggesting high redundancy in the concepts of Failed and Perceived control, the items assessing Perceived Control were dropped from subsequent analyses. The final solution consisted of two factors, Attempted Control (alpha=0.96) and Failed control (alpha=0.88). High correlations between the MACQ-IC and ICS-C Attempted Control (r=0.42, p<.001) and Failed Control (r=0.67, p<.001) scales provided evidence for convergent validity. Weaker correlations between ICS (alcohol version) and ICS-C Attempted Control (r=0.36, p<.001) and Failed Control (r=0.34, p<.001) scales supported discriminant validity. Concurrent validity was demonstrated based on the moderate and statistically significant correlations of the ICS-C Failed Control subscale and frequency of cannabis use (r=0.47, p<.001) and grams of cannabis used (r=0.44, p<.001). Additional evidence for concurrent and discriminant validity were also found in the patterns of correlations between the ICS-C subscales and measures of impulsivity and self-regulation. Conclusions: ICS-C is a promising tool that can be used to assess impaired control over cannabis in young adults. Future research should confirm the factor structure of the ICS-C and examine its utility to screen for impaired control in the context of prevention and early intervention for cannabis-related problems.

Abstract:
This research aims to determine the relationship between medical absenteeism, sociodemographic characteristics and human behavior of the workers of a Colombian mining company. A quantitative study with correlational scope was developed, composed of 832 absenteeism records from 2020. To associate the study variables, bivariate tables are considered, using statistics according to parametric behavior. It was evidenced that injuries and poisonings correspond to more than 51% of the total causes of absences, within a predominantly male population (90%) aged between 40 and 50 years with a low educational level, a population that has developed a large part of their working life in activities related to mining. On the other hand, it is considered that absenteeism is significantly related to lifestyle, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, excess body mass index, low physical activity and unhealthy eating habits, aspects that explain a substantial proportion of the absence from work of the personnel working in this company, and also obey to adaptive and self-organized human behaviors, which were learned from generation to generation, as well as the learned processes to the development of the technical skills of the mining labor.

Abstract:
Background: Citizens’ mental health has been challenged by the advent of a new reality during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has imposed a new pattern of behavior on everyone. In this context, it is important to clarify how this new reality is impacting the mental health of Brazilian citizens. Design and setting: Cross-sectional study, Brazil. Methods: This work is part of the “IMPACT RESEARCH COVID19 BRAZIL: EVALUATING THE PANDEMIC BY COVID-19 THROUGH 24 QUESTIONS”. The implementation of the survey was carried out by distributing a questionnaire through social networks. Data collected was used to measure how much the experience of citizens in the pandemic period has impacted on their mental heath. All data analysis was performed using R. Results: Self-reported experience of negative symptoms and behaviors (sadness, loneliness, stress, anxiety, impatience), as well as exaggerated consumption of substances (alcohol, drugs) and use of electronic recreation (games), differs with age, with the youngest being the ones who most reported such experience, regardless of gender. However, no relevant statistical correlations were found between the variables mentioned above and others that could explain them, such as use of public transport, number of cohabitants, etc. Conclusions: other factors, related to distancing/social isolation, may be contributing to these negative manifestations.

Abstract:
Behavioral economic models of addiction posit that cannabis’s reinforcing value (demand) is linked to use. The Marijuana Purchase Task (MPT; Aston et al., 2015) quantifies demand by assessing hypothetical cannabis consumption across escalating price points. Indices generated from MPT performance include intensity (i.e., amount consumed when free), Omax (i.e., peak expenditure), Pmax (i.e., price at peak expenditure), elasticity (i.e., degree that consumption decreases as price increases), and breakpoint (i.e., cost suppressing consumption to zero). Cannabis demand is linked to engagement in risky behaviors and cannabis use disorder (CUD) symptomology. However, the length of the MPT makes repeated assessment of state-dependent changes in cannabis demand difficult, which limits clinical utility. Brief assessments of alcohol and cigarette demand exist that measure intensity, Omax, and breakpoint. Thus, the aim of the current study was to develop and validate a brief assessment of cannabis demand. College students (N=211, Mage=19.91, SD=1.44; 63% Female; 56.4% Non-Hispanic Caucasian) who reported past-month cannabis use ≥3 times completed an online survey. Participants completed the MPT, a 3-item brief assessment of marijuana demand (BAMD) assessing intensity, Omax, and breakpoint, and measures of demographics, cannabis use frequency, cannabis-related negative consequences, CUD symptomology based on DSM-5 criteria, and cannabis craving. Convergent validity was examined via bivariate correlations of demand indices on the BAMD, MPT, and cannabis outcome measures. Divergent validity was assessed via independent samples t-tests to examine whether demand indices on the BAMD differed based on the presentation or absence of CUD. A one-way between-subjects ANOVA with planned comparisons was tested to compare effects of CUD severity (mild/moderate/severe) on BAMD demand indices. Intensity, Omax, and breakpoint were significantly correlated across the MPT and BAMD (rs=.30 – .79, ps<.01). Intensity, Omax, and breakpoint on the MPT and BAMD were significantly correlated with current cannabis craving, CUD severity, and cannabis-related negative consequences (rs=.18 – .48, ps<.05). Only intensity and Omax were significantly correlated with cannabis use (rs=.16 – .43, ps<.01). Individuals with (versus without) a CUD reported significantly greater intensity and Omax (ps< .01), but not breakpoint, on the MPT and BAMD. There were significant effects of CUD severity on B-MPT demand indices (ps<.05). Planned comparisons revealed that individuals with a moderate or severe CUD had significantly elevated intensity, Omax, and breakpoint on the BAMD compared to individuals with a mild CUD. Only breakpoint differentiated individuals with a moderate and severe CUD. This is the first study to validate a brief assessment of cannabis demand. Consistent with prior alcohol and tobacco research, the BAMD espoused convergent validity with the MPT and divergent validity by differentiating individuals with and without a CUD and along the CUD severity continuum. Thus, the BAMD may be a useful tool to assess links between specific indices of cannabis demand and clinically-relevant outcomes over time and in real-world settings. However, given the rise in novel cannabis products with different modes of administration and varying potencies, future research should examine whether demand differs based on these factors. Further, replicating these findings among more diverse populations is essential.

Abstract:
Background: Self-determination theory (SDT) is a general theory of human motivation that has been applied to understand why people engage in healthy behaviors. That is, more autonomous reasons for engaging in healthy behaviors is associated with an increased likelihood of initiating and maintaining healthy behaviors. Recent research has shown that this framework is useful for understanding engagement in harm reduction behaviors for alcohol among college students. It stands to reason that this framework may be equally useful for cannabis with the potential to inform intervention efforts for reducing harms associated with unhealthy cannabis use. In the present study, we examined autonomous functioning and psychological need satisfaction per SDT as correlates of cannabis-related outcomes among a large, multi-site sample of college students who use cannabis. Method: Participants were 5497 students recruited from Psychology Department participant pools at 10 universities in 8 states across the U.S (AK, CA, CO, ID NM, TX, VA, WA) who completed an online survey for partial course credit. We restricted analyses to those who reported consuming cannabis at least once in the past month (n=1398, about one-fourth of the total sample). The analytic sample was 20.25 years of age on average (SD=3.88) and mostly female (68.9%) and non-Hispanic white (59.4%). Participants completed measures assessing the three facets of autonomous functioning (authorship, interest-taking, and susceptibility to control) and satisfaction and frustration of the psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness, as well as a variety of measures assessing cannabis-related outcomes, including severity of use (i.e., Cannabis Use Disorder Identification Test [CUDIT]), negative consequences (i.e., Marijuana Consequences Questionnaire [MACQ]), and harm reduction behaviors (i.e., Protective Behavioral Strategies for Marijuana [PBSM]). Results: Consistent with hypotheses, overall autonomous functioning was positively correlated with PBSM (r=.179, p<.001) and negatively correlated with CUDIT (r=-.160, p<.001) and MACQ (r=-.092, p=.017). Separating autonomous functioning by subscale (i.e., domain), the correlations were largest in magnitude for the authorship domain (r=.250, r=-.240, and r=-.168, respectively, p<.001). Also consistent with hypotheses, greater satisfaction of each psychological need was positively correlated with PBSM (.149<rs<.203, ps<.001) and negatively correlated with CUDIT (-.146<rs<-.120, ps<.01) and MACQ (-.171<r<-.132, ps<.01); generally, these correlations were largest in magnitude for relatedness satisfaction. In contrast, greater frustration of each psychological need was negatively correlated with PBSM (-.144<rs<-.121, ps<.001) and positively correlated with CUDIT (.199<rs<.229, ps<.001) and MACQ (.133<rs<.215, ps<.01); the correlations were largest in magnitude for relatedness frustration with PBSM and competence frustration with CUDIT and MACQ. Conclusions: The present study is the first to demonstrate that higher autonomous functioning and greater psychological need satisfaction are protective factors for cannabis-related outcomes, including less consumption, fewer negative consequences, and more frequent use of harm reduction behaviors. SDT provides a rich framework for understanding not only why college students may engage in healthy cannabis-related behaviors, but also the conditions that foster that engagement, making it an ideal theory to inform cannabis interventions. The present findings warrant replication but suggest promise for SDT as a framework for understanding cannabis-related outcomes that future research should investigate further.

Abstract:
Introduction: According to the studies, a quarter of people who drink alcohol suffer at least one depressive episode in their lifetime. It has also been found that one-third of people who suffer from depression, abusively consume psychoactive substances, such as alcohol, as a form of self-healing. Aim: In this retrospective study, we propose to statistically quantify the relationship between alcohol-related mental and behavioural illnesses and depression spectrum disorders. Method: The retrospective study was conducted on a group of hospitalized patients, between January 1st and June 30th, 2018, at "Elisabeta Doamna" Psychiatric Hospital, in Galati, Romania. For diagnosis we used the ICD-10 (The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioral Disorders. (Clinical description, diagnostic guidelines and psychometric tests, such as HAM-D (Hamilton Depression Rating Scale)), AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test). Patients were selected among those who had a combination of mental and behavioural disorders due to alcohol and depressive spectrum disorders. Results: Between January 1st and June 30th, 2018, a quarter of total 6316 hospitalized patients, or 24.79% (1566 patients) were diagnosed with alcohol-related disorders, and 5.4% (341 cases) had a dual diagnosis, with alcohol-related disorders associated with depressive elements. During this 6-month period, of all cases of alcohol-related disorders, it was found that approximately 22% had a dual diagnosis, respectively, the combination of alcohol-related disorders with depressive spectrum disorders or depressive elements. Conclusions: Unfortunately, it is estimated that depression will become a secondary cause of disability worldwide after cardiovascular disease. According to the WHO (World Health Organization), this disease affects more than 320 million people worldwide, and its combination with alcohol abuse is alarming. Therefore, patients with dual diagnosis require a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach to reduce or even neutralize the adverse consequences that may occur in the psycho-social, medical, family, economic, or behavioural context.
