Change talk subtypes as predictors of alcohol use following brief motivational intervention.
Conclusions: Results challenge the assumption that all ST during MI is a negative prognostic indicator and highlight the importance of the context in which change language emerges. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: Psychology of Addictive Behaviors)

Agreement between momentary and retrospective reports of cannabis use and alcohol use: Comparison of ecological momentary assessment and timeline followback indices.
Conclusions: Results suggest that retrospective reporting methods assessing alcohol and cannabis should not be considered a direct “substitute” for momentary or daily assessments. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: Psychology of Addictive Behaviors)

Using substances to cope with social anxiety: Associations with use and consequences in daily life.
Conclusions: Days young adults used substances to cope with social anxiety were high-risk days for elevated substance use and consequences, regardless of baseline social anxiety. Positive consequences attained through drinking to cope with social anxiety may be an important pathway that reinforces coping motivated use.

Self-report assessment of alcohol sensitivity: An examination of the effects of different probes.
Conclusions: Assessments of sensitivity should probe for minimum and maximum number of drinks across each of the effects. If impractical to probe for both, consistently probing for maximum number of drinks is desirable.

Notes on demand: Conceptual and empirical benefits of applying Rachlin’s discounting equation to demand data.
Conclusions: Rachlin’s equation better described demand data than did the exponentiated equation, indicating that demand for a commodity may decrease hyperbolically rather than exponentially. Other benefits of his equation are that it does not have the same pitfalls as the current exponential equations and is relatively straightforward in its conceptualization when applied to demand data.

Planned versus unplanned drinking and cannabis use: Do facets of trait impulsivity influence daily risk?
Conclusions: Day-level planned drinking and cannabis use are important factors to target in just-in-time interventions. However, interventions focused on planned and unplanned drinking may be particularly effective for individuals with higher levels of positive urgency.

Nudges and choice architecture to promote healthy food purchases in adults: A systematized review.
Conclusions: Nudge applications in food purchasing settings, particularly priming, offers a promising public health strategy to encourage healthier food choices among adults. More research is needed to determine optimal nudge combinations and contexts. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: Psychology of Addictive Behaviors)

Ratings of executive function as a risk factor for adolescents’ frequent cannabis use: A prospective longitudinal study.
We examined the extent to which behavioral ratings of children’s executive function (EF) in early adolescence predicted adolescents’ cannabis use, and whether associations were independent of parents’ cannabis and alcohol use and adolescents’ alcohol use. Method: Participants were 198 offspring (44% boys) of 127 mothers and 106 fathers. Parents and teachers completed the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function (BRIEF) at ages 11–14 years. Youth were interviewed repeatedly from ages 14 to 20 years regarding frequency of cannabis and alcohol use. Two-level models regressed dichotomous cannabis outcomes (ann...

Safer gambling and consumer protection failings among 40 frequently visited cryptocurrency-based online gambling operators.
Conclusions: These results highlight the potential risks for young and vulnerable individuals, especially when a lack of identity verification is paired with the inherent anonymity of cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need for greater policy and research attention toward cryptocurrency-based online gambling.

Drinking context, alcohol use, and subjective responses during binge drinking episodes measured by high-resolution ecological momentary assessment (HR-EMA).
Conclusions: The present study extends prior laboratory-based research and shows that subjective responses during naturalistic binge drinking episodes may be influenced by drinking context. Drinking with others and in bars and restaurants may increase alcohol consumption, enhance alcohol’s rewarding effects, and lead to more alcohol-related harm in at-risk drinkers.

A qualitative examination of positive and negative consequences young adults experience from simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use.
Conclusions: Together these findings provide further insight into young adults’ simultaneous use experiences. Next steps should include quantitative exploratory research to identify and determine the frequency of specific consequences experienced during simultaneous use and examine the relationship between simultaneous use consequences and particular patterns of use.

A daily diary investigation of self-regulation in gambling.
Conclusions: Individuals may benefit from greater awareness of temptations to violate gambling limits and the impact of daily stressors, particularly for those with high trait self-control who are most successful when stress/tension is low.

New approaches to deep phenotyping in addictions.
Conclusions: NIDA PhAB focuses on addiction-related processes across multiple units of analysis, whereas HiTOP focuses on clinical phenotypes and covers a broader range of psychopathology. We highlight that NIDA PhAB and HiTOP together provide deep and broad characterizations of people diagnosed with SUDs and complement each other in their efforts to address widely known limitations of traditional classification systems and their diagnostic categories. Next, we show how NIDA PhAB and HiTOP can be integrated to facilitate optimal rich phenotyping of addiction-related phenomena. Finally, we argue that such deep phenotyping p...

Pain catastrophizing, pain anxiety, and substance use among Black individuals with chronic pain who use opioids.
This study is the first to test the relationships between pain catastrophizing, pain anxiety, and substance use among Black individuals with chronic pain who use opioid medications. Method: Black adults with chronic pain who use opioids (N = 401) completed online measures of pain catastrophizing (Brief Pain Catastrophizing Scale); pain anxiety (Pain Anxiety Symptom Scale Short Form-20); risky use of alcohol, tobacco, e-cigarettes, cannabis and opioids (Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test); and opioid dependence (Severity of Dependence Scale). We conducted zero-inflated and hierarchical regressions to ...

Review of third-wave therapies for substance use disorders in people of color and collectivist cultures: Current evidence and future directions.
Conclusions: Findings suggest that relative to CBT, third-wave therapies are a promising modality in the treatment SUDs in POC and people and from collectivist cultures. However, studies are relatively sparse and carry a number of methodological problems. As such, there remains a need for further research.
