Like in alcoholism or drug addiction the quantity and frequency of the substance consumed is less important compared to the impact the use causes in someone's functioning in various areas including family, work/school, relationships, legal issues, financial issues, etc. The Diagnostic and Statistics Manual (DSM-V) defines addiction as an issue if it negatively starts impacting a person's functioning in the areas mentioned above. It is a continuum with social use on one end and dependency at the other end. If one does not want to use an instrument related solely to Internet addiction one could always look at the instruments available in substance use disorder literature and modify them to suit your situation. Some common instruments used in substance abuse/dependence are MAST/DAST, SASSI, ASSIST, AUDIT, ASI, etc.)

Are there studies containing negative results in music therapy?

Asked 16th Feb, 2014

Thomas Karl Hillecke

In the last years a lot of studies and meta-analyses have been published in music therapy. But in the light of the current "crisis of confidence" a lot of questions arose. Respecting the publication of Fanelli (D. Fanelli: „Positive“ Results Increase Down the Hierarchy of the Sciences. PLOS one. 2010, 5 (4) e10068.) one question is about the high rate of positive results in psychology, clinical medicine and psychiatry. Therefor our intention is to find studies with negative results in the field of music therapy. Help from the community would be great.

Scale to measure (identity) threat through change - in particular a behaviour change programme at work. Any suggestions appreciated!

Asked 20th Jul, 2017

Caroline Verfuerth

I'm looking for a scale to measure the feeling of threat or identity threat as a result of a behaviour change programme that was implemented in a workplace.

For one week we took away most of the meat choices in a canteen and launched a campaign with information about the environmental impact of meat. Some employees reacted with denial and reactant, so I'm now interested in measuring feeling of threat with a focus on threat to one's identity. If you have come across anything I'd really appreciate your suggestions! You can also email me cverfuerth@sheffield.ac.uk
