Liddle, H. A. (2010). Multidimensional family therapy : a science-based treatment system. The Australian and New Zealand Journal of Family Therapy, 31(2), 133–148.
Abstract: MDFT is a family-based intervention for adolescent substance abuse and associated mental health and behavioural problems (Liddle, 2010). Integrative in several ways, MDFT uses an ecological or contextual conceptual framework to understand the developmental tasks of teens and their families. Research-derived knowledge about risk and protective factors, and proximal causes, correlates and contributors to adolescent drug and related problems inform clinical thinking and interventions with every case. A multisystems approach, MDFT assesses and intervenes in four areas: (1) the adolescent as an individual and a member of a family and peer network; (2) the parent(s), both as individual adults and in his or her role as mother, father or caregiver; (3) the family environment and family relationships, as manifested in day-to-day family transactional patterns; and (4) extrafamilial sources of influence such as peers, school and juvenile justice. Interventions are made within and coordinated across domains. Progress in one area or with one person has implications for and use in others. Individual meetings with parent(s) and teen set the stage for family sessions, and family meetings may offer content and new outcomes that need to be brought to extrafamily meetings with juvenile justice or school personnel. MDFT was developed and tested as a treatment system rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. A treatment system offers different versions of a clinical model that vary according to factors such as clinical sample characteristics (older versus younger adolescents, juvenile justice involved versus no involvement in juvenile justice systems), and treatment parameters (type of clinical setting and treatment dose).

Abstract: Contemporary public health emphasizes a community-based approach to health promotion and disease prevention. The evidence from the past 20 years indicates, however, that many community-based programs have had only modest impact, with the notable exception of a number of HIV prevention programs. To better understand the reasons for these outcomes, we conducted a systematic literature review of 32 community-based prevention programs. Reasons for poor performance include methodological challenges to study design and evaluation, concurrent secular trends, smaller-than-expected effect sizes, limitations of the interventions, and limitations of theories used. The effectiveness of HIV programs appears to be related in part to extensive formative research and an emphasis on changing social norms

Matthews, K., Shepherd, J., & Sivarajasingham, V. (2006). Violence-related injury and the price of beer in England and Wales. Applied economics, 38(6), 661–670.
Abstract: The paper examines the influence of the real price of beer on violence-related injuries across the economic regions in England and Wales. The data are monthly frequency of violent-injury collected from a stratified sample of 58 National Health Service Emergency Departments 1995-2000. An econometric model based on economic, socio-demographic and environmental factors was estimated using panel techniques. It is shown that the rate of violence-related injury is negatively related to the real price of beer, as well as economic, sporting and socio-demographic factors. The principal conclusion of the paper is that the regional distribution of the incidence of violent injury is related to the regional distribution of the price of beer. The major policy conclusion is that increased alcohol prices would result in substantially fewer violent injuries and reduced demand on trauma services.

Prison Health is Public Health! : Angleichungs- und Umsetzungsprobleme in der gesundheitlichen Versorgung Gefangener im deutschen Justizvollzug : ein Übersichtsbeitrag. Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz, 53(2-3; 20.01.2010), 233–244.
Abstract: Auf Basis internationaler Standards orientiert sich die Gesundheitsversorgung Gefangener auch in Deutschland am „Äquivalenzprinzip“ (Gleichwertigkeit der medizinischen Versorgung innerhalb der Gefängnisse mit der im jeweiligen Land vorgehaltenen medizinischen Versorgung). Vor diesem Hintergrund werden anhand ausgewählter Gesundheitsprobleme nicht nur vereinzelte Angleichungs- und Umsetzungsprobleme in der Gesundheitsversorgung Gefangener verdeutlicht, sondern auch strukturelle Probleme benannt, die aus dem von der GKV entkoppelten Parallelsystem der gefängniseigenen „Gesundheitsfürsorge“ resultieren. Die vorliegende Übersichtsarbeit dient als Grundlage für Vorschläge zum Umdenken und zur Reorganisation der intramuralen Gesundheitsdienste. On the basis of international standards, health care in German prisons has been oriented along the principle of equivalence (equity of health care delivery for inmates compared with the health care delivery in the community). Against this background, selected health problems demonstrate not only isolated problems in adaptation and implementation of health care delivery, but also structural problems resulting from the parallel system of prison health care, which is separated from the general German health care insurance system. This review serves as a basis to present suggestions to rethink and reorganize prison-based health care services.

Abstract: Einer Einführung zum Stande der Forschung zum moderaten Alkoholkonsum folgen eine Gesamtübersicht und die Kategorisierung von Behandlungsangeboten in der Schweiz zum Kontrollierten Trinken (KT) sowie von Ansätzen zur Konsumsteuerung ambulant und stationär. Erste Ergebnisse einer Internetumfrage bei n = 34 KT-Therapeutinnen und Therapeuten 2009 erlauben einen Vergleich zwischen der Kurspraxis und den Kurskonzepten alcochoix+ und dem KT-Modell nach Körkel. Entgegen den konzeptuellen Programmvorgaben bejahen die KT-Therapeuten die Anwendung auch bei abhängigen Klienten und konstatieren Individualisierungsbedarf. Controlled drinking programs in Switzerland – a look into the black box A short introduction on alcohol and moderation is followed by an overview of controlled drinking programs (cd) in Switzerland as well as approaches to limit consumption (,wet places‘). The results of an internet survey conducted in 2009 among n = 34 treatment staff who run cd-programs allow for a comparison between treatment practice and program concepts in the French (adapted version of the Canadian program alcochoix+) and the German speaking part (German cd program according to Körkel) of Switzerland. Contrary to officially declared program limitations cd therapists agree that cd treatment should also be offered to dependent alcohol users and require a more individualized assessment. Recruiting clients for cd programs and competing claims of abstinence oriented treatment providers are reported as key issues – even though frequent client flows from cd to abstinence programs can be observed.

Meili, B. (2008). Prävention : leichter gesagt als getan. P & E : Psychologie und Erziehung : Zeitschrift der Schweizerischen Vereinigung für Kinder- und Jugendpsychologie, 34(2), 8–11.
Abstract: Jedes Kind hat Anrecht auf eine möglichst gesunde Entwicklung und auf eine gerechte Chance, später als Erwachsener einen angemessenen Platz in der Gesellschaft einzunehmen. Die Gesellschaft ihrerseits hat ein Interesse an gesunden Kindern und Jugendlichen, damit diese als Erwachsene ihre produktive Rolle auch tatsächlich wahrnehmen können und nicht der Gemeinschaft zur Last fallen. Die Präventionsforschung zeigt allerdings, dass die Prävention und Gesundheitsförderung nicht bei allen Themen gleich wirksam sein können und die Erwartungen somit auch nicht zu hoch geschraubt werden sollen. Auch kann die Prävention wichtige Startbedingungen ins Leben kaum beeinflussen und wird deshalb höchstens einen kleinen Beitrag zur Verbesserung der Chancengleichheit leisten können. Prévention: plus facile à dire qu’à faire Chaque enfant a droit à un développement aussi sain que possible et à une chance équitable d’occuper plus tard, à l’âge adulte, une place adéquate dans la société. La société de son côté a intérêt à compter des enfants et des jeunes en bonne santé pour que, devenus adultes, ils puissent véritablement jouer leur rôle productif, et ne tombent pas à la charge de la communauté. La recherche sur la prévention montre toutefois que la prévention et la promotion de la santé ne peuvent revêtir la même efficacité sur tous les thèmes, et qu’il ne faut pas créer des attentes trop ambitieuses. La prévention ne peut du reste guère influencer les conditions existentielles initiales importantes, et ne pourra donc fournir tout au plus qu’une faible contribution à l’amélioration de l’égalité des chances.
