Title The Action Plan : a new instrument to collect data on interventions in secondary prevention in adolescents Type Journal Article
Year 2005 Publication Substance use and misuse Abbreviated Journal
Volume 40 Issue 6 Pages 761-777
Keywords AOD use; adolescent; risk; Supra-f; community involvement; secondary prevention; prevention research; program evaluation; study; statistical data; Switzerland
Abstract It is difficult to draw causal conclusions about the effectiveness of secondary prevention programs for adolescents at risk, when the programs use a variety of different interventions. The Action Plan is an instrument that is designed to make collection of such data possible. This allows calculating different kinds of intervention patterns for each participant and program, which, in combination with outcome measures, gives an estimate of successful vs. less successful interventions. The study compared intervention patterns from 12 different sites in a national intervention program in Switzerland. The program, called supra-f (www.supra-f.ch), started in 1999 and will end in 2005. Results are presented from the ongoing study with approximately 600 adolescents. We calculated effect sizes (ES) to compare interventions with outcome measures. Effect sizes (ES) are presented on well being, coping, self-esteem, delinquency, and substance use (cigarettes, alcohol, cannabis) in relation to intervention packages, risk groups (low, moderate, high), and age (two groups: 11-15 and 16-20 years of age) using data collected from 1999-2002.

Title Public opinion about syringe exchange programmes in the USA: an analysis of national surveys Type Journal Article
Year 2004 Publication International journal of drug policy Abbreviated Journal
Volume 15 Issue 4; 09/2004 Pages 225-230
Keywords drug market; illicit drug; legal regulation; drug legalization; drug decriminalization; public health; AOD public policy strategy; policy recommendations
Abstract This commentary explores the concept of a regulated market for currently illegal drugs. It details a variety of specific public health tools which could be used in a regulatory regimen to control access to these substances. The distinction between administrative and social controlling mechanisms is discussed. The author concludes that a regulated market for drugs founded on inclusive public health and moral principles is a rational approach to the pervasive global concern of illegal drugs in our society.

Year 2008 Publication Spectra : prevention and health promotion Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue 69; 06/2008 Pages 2
Keywords health promotion; sports; child; adolescent; school context; Switzerland
Abstract Sport and youth work. It’s a recognised fact: besides being healthy, sport can also help promote integration and prevent violence. But how can this potential be exploited if, despite enjoying exercise, large numbers of young people have no interest in joining traditional sports clubs? The «Midnight Basketball» project fills this recreational gap and offers young people of both sexes an opportunity to play late-night Saturday basketball in public gyms.
