Substance use is a widespread problem among adolescents. According to the 2008 Monitoring the Future survey, almost half (45 %) of American youth have smoked cigarettes by the end of high school, 21 % of whom had tried them before the beginning of eighth grade; 72 % have consumed alcohol by the end of high school, with 39 % having done so by eighth...
Research on chronic community violence exposure focuses on ethnic minority, impoverished, and crime-ridden communities while treatment and prevention focuses on the perpetrators of the violence, not on the youth who are its direct or indirect victims. School-based treatment and preventive interventions are needed for children at elevated risk for e...
Community violence is recognized as a major public health problem (WHO, World Report on Violence and Health,
2002) that Americans increasingly understand has adverse implications beyond inner-cities. However, the majority of research on chronic community violence exposure focuses on ethnic minority, impoverished, and/or crime-ridden communities whi...
This study provided an experimental test of a drug abuse treatment enrollment and retention intervention in a sample of 103 Black mothers of substance-exposed infants. Significantly more women assigned to the Engaging Moms Program enrolled into drug abuse treatment than did women assigned to the control condition (88% vs. 46%). Sixty-seven percent...
This article describes the key ingredients and processes in transporting an empirically supported, research-developed family therapy for adolescent drug abusers, Multidimensional Family Therapy (MDFT), into an intensive day treatment program. Using the same systems change principles that guide this treatment approach, the technology transfer proces...
Quille, T. J., J. B. McQuitty, and P. C. Clark. 1986. Influence of manure-handling systems on heat and moisture loads in free-stall dairy housing. Can. Agric. Eng. 28: 175-181. Six commercial free-stall dairy barns, three with scraped and three with slatted passageways, were monitored over a continuous 48-h period to determine the influence of thes...
Multidimensional family therapy (MDFT) is an outpatient, family-based drug abuse treatment for adolescent substance abusers. In their research, the authors have sought to integrate intensive therapeutic work in important areas, including case management, school interventions, drug counseling methods (including the use of drug screens in therapy), t...
This study examined the relationships of parenting practices (i.e., psychological control, behavioral control, and parental acceptance) and family relationships (i.e., family cohesion and conflict) to internalizing and externalizing behaviors in adolescent substance abusers. Two Hundred and twenty-four clinically referred, low income, inner city, p...

... Past empirical work supports the notion that living in more disordered neighborhoods is linked to greater risk-taking such as increased substance use (Burlew et al., 2009;Cooley-Strickland et al., 2016;Winstanley et al., 2008), criminal offending (Chung & Steinberg, 2006;Fabio, Tu, Loeber, & Cohen, 2011), and risky sex (Carlson, McNulty, Bellair, & Watts, 2014;Latkin, Curry, Hua, & Davey, 2007). Results of the present analyses indicate not only that greater neighborhood disorder relates to many of these risky behaviors among justice-involved youth, but that adolescents' perceptions of life expectancy partly mediate this link in most cases. ...
... Los hallazgos referentes a las alteraciones e impacto psicológico en población adolescente coinciden con los hallazgos de estudios sobre exposición a la violencia comunitaria, los cuales re%ejan que una exposición prolongada a este fenómeno se relaciona con conductas psicopatológicas especí$cas, como depresión, ansiedad, conductas agresivas y disruptivas, abuso de sustancias, así como con dificultades académicas (Cooley-Strickland et al., 2011;Susanne et al., 2017); de igual manera, se asocia con un menor bienestar social y personal (Jiménez & Melián, 2016). ...
... Consequently, a study was undertaken during the winter of [1983][1984] in six commercial free-stall dairy barns, three with solid and three with slatted passageways, with the objective of establishing production rates and/or base line data for the primary air quality param eters, i.e., C02, NH3, H2S and dust. This study, the results of which are reported here, was carried out concurrently with another study reported previously (Quille et al. 1986), involving heat and moisture loads in the same facilities. ...
... Finally, Henderson, Rowe, Dakof, Hawes, and Liddle (2009) conducted a randomized trial to examine the effectiveness of multidimensional family therapy (MDFT) compared to a peer group intervention (also reported in Liddle, Rowe, Dakof, Henderson, & Greenbaum, 2009). MDFT employed a multiple systems treatment approach and focused on four domains: adolescent, parent, family interaction, and extrafamilial (Rowe, Liddle, McClintic & Quille, 2002;Rowe, Parker-Sloat, Schwartz & Liddle, 2003). Cultural sensitivity was one of the key concepts of MDFT; treatment included "discussion of salient cultural themes" (Liddle, 2002, p. 53, 93). ...
... Community violence involves acts intended to cause physical harm against a person or persons in the community and usually occurs outside of the home in public areas (Cooley-Strickland et al., 2009;Kennedy & Ceballo, 2014). Research on community violence has distinguished between two main categories of exposure: victimization and witnessing. ...
... Outcomes of studies investigating the relationship between drug and alcohol clinician knowledge and attitudes and implementation fidelity have been mixed. For instance, some studies have demonstrated that clinicians who are prepared for change and who have positive attitudes to EBP are more likely to implement such practices [18,[35][36][37], while others have not found a strong relationship between treatment fidelity and attitudes such as interest, confidence and commitment to EBPs [21,29,38]. Clinician perceptions of the organisational climate comprise a distinct set of beliefs found to influence implementation outcomes in drug and alcohol settings [29,39]. ...
... 4 Additionally, substance use by women continues to increase, especially in childbearing years. 5 The Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Center for Excellence found that 1 in 2 women aged 15 to 44 reported alcohol use in the past month, 1 in 4 reported binge drinking, and 1 in 20 reported heavy alcohol use. 6 Further, 1 in 30 pregnant women reported high-risk drinking at levels shown to increase risk of FASD, with 1 in 5 reporting alcohol use in the first trimester, 1 in 14 in the second trimester, and 1 in 20 in the third trimester. ...
