Title (down) The Use of Benzodiazepines Among Injecting Drug Users Type Journal Article
Year 1994 Publication Drug and alcohol review Abbreviated Journal
Volume 13 Issue Pages 63-69
Keywords addiction; AOD dependence; chemical addiction; benzodiazepines
Abstract Benzodiazepine use among injecting drug users (IDUs) presents a major clinical and public health problem that may increase in importance. The current paper examines the research on the extent of benzodiazepine use among IDUs and the harmful consequences associated with such use. Numerous studies have found benzodiazepine use to be widespread among IDUs, and to be associated with greater levels of risk-taking and polydrug use, and poorer psychosocial functioning than other IDUs. The injection of benzodiazepines has also been reported, and presents problems in itself. The implications of existing research for both clinical practice and research are discussed.

Title (down) The two worlds of alcohol problems : who is in treatment and who is not? Type Journal Article
Year 2008 Publication Addiction Research and Theory Abbreviated Journal
Volume 16 Issue 1; 02/2008 Pages 67-84
Keywords treatment and maintenance; inpatient care; outpatient care; AOD consumption; AOD use pattern; AOD dependence; chemical addiction; alcohol; social support; family support; statistical data; Sweden; Stockholm
Abstract In the study “Women and Men in Swedish alcohol and Drug Treatment,” it is possible to compare alcohol consumption and problems among respondents in the general population with those in clients entering alcohol treatment. The differences between these groups have led researchers to talk about the “two worlds” of alcohol problems-in general and in clinical populations. The aim of this article is to study the relative strength of factors in predicting entering and the clinical population. The studied factors are demographics and marginalization; volume and frequency of drinking; alcohol dependence; social response to drinking (suggestions to cut down or seek treatment by informal actors, e.g. family and friends, and formal actors such as employer, the social services or judicial system); and treatment history. The client sample includes 1202 clients (71% men) interviewed face-to-face when entering inpatient and outpatient treatment facilities in Stockholm. In the general population survey, 3557 persons aged 18-75 years were interviewed. The two samples differ significantly. As expected, clients were older, more marginalized and reported more severe alcohol problems, and many reported previous treatment experiences and social responses. Logistic regression analyses show that previous treatment, unemployment/institutionalization and having an unstable living situation are the strongest predictors of who is in treatment, followed by age, alcohol dependence and frequency of drinking. Formal pressures to cut down or seek treatment are also important and males are more likely to be in treatment. The results support a notion of the treatment system as a place for handling marginalized people, beyond and beside their extent of drinking.

Title (down) The therapeutic community : theory, model, and method Type Book Whole
Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages xviii, 452
Keywords treatment and maintenance; inpatient care; AOD dependence; group therapy; treatment program; therapeutic community; treatment model; socialization; peer prevention; treatment outcome
Abstract This volume provides a comprehensive review of the essentials of the Therapeutic Community (TC) theory and its practical “whole person” approach to the treatment of substance abuse disorders and related problems. Part 1 outlines the perspective of the traditional views of the substance abuse disorder, the substance abuser, and the basic components of this approach. Part II explains the organizational structure of the TC, its work components, and the role of residents and staff. The chapters in Part III describe the essential activities of TC life that relate most directly to the recovery process and the goals of rehabilitation. The final part outlines how individuals change in the TC behaviorally, cognitively, and emotionally. It is an invaluable resource for all addictions professionals and students. The book describes the contemporary therapeutic community (TC) for addictions as a hybrid, a union of self-help and public support. It is an experiment in progress, reconfiguring the vital healing and teaching ingredients of self-help communities into a systematic methodology for transforming lives. The book’s 25 chapters include data concerning: (1) evolution of the TC and the need for theory; (2) biomedical concepts and the TC perspective; (3) view of the person; (4) physical environment, social organization, work, staff and peers in the TC; (5) program stages; (6) TC models, including privileges and sanctions, surveillance and security, community meetings and the encounter group; (7) individual change, including behaviors, cognitions, emotions, essential experiences and essential perceptions; (8) participation in the change process; (9) internalization and identity; (10) a conceptual framework of the treatment process; and (11) the challenge of evolution in therapeutic communities, including general guidelines for adaptations and modifications.
