CHAPTER 2. A CONCEPTUAL MODEL FOR MEASURING SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND ABUSE It is well known that this generation was exposed to an unprecedented array of psychoactive substances, both during the youth drug culture of the 1960s and 1970s, and subsequently to an unprecedented array of psychoactive medications available by prescription and over the counter. A complication of measuring substance use prevalence is the problem of multiple use, what in the model is called "overlap." One person may use four or five psychoactive substances, such as alcohol, marijuana, cigarettes, over-the-counter diet pills, and prescribed antianxiety drugs. Because psychoactive substances can induce aberrant cognitive and emotional behavior, the question of which came first, the drug or the mental disorder, is important for both diagnosis and treatment. www.drugabusestatistics.samhsa.gov /Aging/chap2.htm   (4349 words)

Inventor of the Week: Archive Nuclear physicist Hans Geiger, whose surname is known the world over for his invention of the radioactivity measuring device known as the Geiger counter, was born Johannes Wilhelm Geiger in Neustadt-an-der-Haardt, Germany, on September 30, 1882. Whenever the counter nears a radioactive substance, the gas becomes ionized, and the ionized gas particles are then able to carry the current in a complete circuit, from one end to the other. Geiger was also involved in a number of experiments that would lead to Rutherford’s breakthrough theory of the atom, which declared that the nucleus occupies a very small volume at the center of every atom. web.mit.edu /invent/iow/geiger.html   (602 words)

Substance Use in Popular Movies and Music Substance appearance was noted whenever substances or related paraphernalia (references to brands of alcohol, tobacco, or over-the-counter medicines, generic bar or cocktail signs, ashtrays, syringes, and the like) were seen, absent any indication of use. The coding process was similar in many respects to that used for movies, as substances of interest were identical and many of the variables overlapped, at least in broad conceptual terms. Therefore, the frequency of substance appearance was described for all 5-minute intervals of the movies, a procedure that is typical of other content analyses identified in Appendix B. www.mediacampaign.org /publications/movies/movie_partIV.html   (602 words)

ARCHIVE: phil-mind, cross-references: phil-epist, cog-psy, psy-phys This inclusion of extended objects and events within the contents of consciousness runs directly counter to the fundamental bifurcation of the universe proposed by Descartes into res extensa (the extended substance of which the physical world is composed) and res cogitans (the thinking substance of which consciousness is composed). Dualist and Reductionist theories of mind disagree about whether or not consciousness can be reduced to a state of or function of the brain. Whereas Dualists locate percepts of external events 'within the mind', and Reductionists locate these percepts within the brain, the Reflexive model states that external events as-perceived are "projected" by the brain to the judged location of the initiating stimulus. cogprints.soton.ac.uk /documents/disk0/00/00/02/38/cog00000238-00/199801005.html   (2467 words)

Teen Substance Abuse Substances that can lead to drug abuse and addiction include alcohol, steroids, over-the-counter medications and prescription medications. The liver combines cocaine and alcohol to make a new substance called cocaethylene, which intensifies cocaine's euphoric effects and may increase the risk of sudden death.

Operation RedBlock Healthy living, workplace health and safety at GetFit Physicians and other health care providers should screen for any type of substance abuse during routine history-taking with questions about what prescriptions and over-the-counter medicines the patient is taking and why. Unfortunately it can be made rather easily and without great expense by anyone with a basic knowledge of organic chemistry, making it a prime drug for the illicit drug industry. Passive Inhalation is the exposure of non-smoking subjects to side-stream smoke from active smokers, thereby raising the possibility that a non-user may test positive. redblock.shs.net /SearchGlossary.aspx?SearchFor=P   (117 words)

Editor's Inbox The legacy of Pierre Boulez is far from over. For those who found frustration in how overly tonal music had become over the course of two hundred years, atonality became something fresh, something new. Talman would like us to believe that Boulez "and his atonalist cohorts" were trying to "dictate the path of new music to the exclusion of all else," I fail to see how such control could ever be realized. www.mvdaily.com /articles/2000/04/inbox5.htm   (2311 words)

Winds of Change.NET: Guest Blog: Andrew Lazarus On The War In Iraq, Part I of II "Don't tell me you intend on continuing with your style over substance fallacy (unless, of course, you want to run this place like a grade school playground)" Well, it depends on the maturity of the participants, which, as you demonstrate, varies. When Clarke was arguing over the intention to target Iraq in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, he both told the Bush officials that Iraq had no terrorists, wasn't involved in terrorism, and asked DCI Tenet and FBI Director Mueller to agree or not. Over the next several years, we ought to focus on completing our work in Iraq, using every possible carrot and stick to bring political reform to Egypt, and launching a massive "Manhattan Project" for energy indepedence by 2010 so we can apply the same pressure on Saudi Arabia. windsofchange.net /archives/004799.php   (18090 words)

RADIOACTIVITY: HALF-LIFE The radioactive half-life of the substance is the period of time over which the number of radioactive nuclei decreases by a factor of one-half. When the nuclei of the substance decay, they emit radiation (alpha, beta, or gamma rays) that can be detected by counters such as a Geiger Counter. Radioactive Half-Life: A period of time in which half the nuclei of a species of radioactive substance would decay. einstein.byu.edu /~masong/HTMstuff/C24A1.html   (18090 words)

GCSE Nuclear Radiation: Half life If you pointed a Geiger counter at a radioactive substance for a period of time, you'd notice that the reading on the meter decreases as you watch. The radioactivity from some substances dies away very fast - perhaps in a few microseconds. In theory, every radioactive substance should stay slightly radioactive for ever - the graph should never actually fall to zero. www.darvill.clara.net /nucrad/hlife.htm   (18090 words)

Reasons To Believe: Facts For Faith Issue 6, 2001 An event is the coming or going of a property in a substance at a particular time, or the continued possession of a property by a substance throughout a time.“This shirt’s being green now" and “this acorn’s process of changing shape” are both examples of events. A physical event would be the possessing of, the coming of, or the going of one or more of these properties by or in a physical substance (or among physical substances).

BrothersJudd Blog: ETHICS, NOT MORALS, PLEASE: They conclude even further that appearance ethics is pernicious because it “gives the illusion of control and precision” based on ever more constricting rules and regulations that offer simplicity at the expense of substance. Considerations of efficacy are part of the rhetoric of public-sector ethics but there is little evidence of it in either the academic or government literature. On the other hand, the view that there is an "ethics industry" that is greedy and counter-productive (in terms of ethics) is quite accurate. www.brothersjudd.com /blog/archives/011281.html   (551 words)

Poison Gas Attacks in Japan Initial reports, attributed to the Tokyo Fire Department, said that the poisonous substance was acetonitrile, an extremely toxic substance used as a fumigant and in metal treatment and photo processing. Counter-Terrorist (CT) analysts continue to question the details of that attack, as well as to attempt to assess its implications for the rest of the world. Tokyo Metropolitan Police are described as "elated" that Inoue has been arrested, because they say that they had feared that he would be the leader of additional terrorist acts, if Asahara were indicted and directly sought in the investigation. www.emergency.com /japanatk.htm   (1959 words)
