Abstract

The current study examined the relationship between PTSD and nonmedical use of benzodiazepines (BZDs) based on level of John Henry Active Coping (JHAC) among African American incarcerated men. Data were derived from the Helping Incarcerated Men (HIM) Study (n = 208). Nonmedical use of BZDs was measured for the 30 days before incarceration. Current PTSD diagnosis and JHAC were determined using DSM-5 criteria and the JHAC Scale. Adjusted logistic regression analyses showed PTSD diagnosis was significantly associated with nonmedical BZD use (p = .011), but that JHAC did not significantly mitigate this relationship. African American incarcerated men may experience an unmet need with regards to mental health treatment.

创伤后应激障碍诊断与非医疗使用苯二氮卓类药物：约翰-亨利积极应对的缓解作用。

本研究根据非裔美国在押男性的约翰-亨利积极应对（John Henry Active Coping，JHAC）水平，研究了创伤后应激障碍与非医疗使用苯二氮卓（Benzodiazepines，BZDs）之间的关系。数据来自 "帮助被监禁男性（HIM）研究"（n = 208）。对入狱前 30 天内 BZDs 的非医疗使用情况进行了测量。使用 DSM-5 标准和 JHAC 量表确定当前的创伤后应激障碍诊断和 JHAC。调整后的逻辑回归分析表明，创伤后应激障碍诊断与非医用 BZD 的使用显著相关（p = .011），但 JHAC 并未显著缓解这种关系。被监禁的非裔美国人在心理健康治疗方面的需求可能未得到满足。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse presents rigorous new studies and research on ethnicity and cultural variation in alcohol, tobacco, licit and illicit forms of substance use and abuse. The research is drawn from many disciplines and interdisciplinary areas in the social and behavioral sciences, public health, and helping professions. The Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse is an international forum for identification of emergent and culturally diverse substance use and abuse trends, and the implementation of culturally competent strategies in harm reduction, individual, group, and family treatment of substance abuse. The Journal systematically investigates the beliefs, attitudes, and values of substance abusers, searching for the answers to the origins of drug use and abuse for different ethnic groups. The Journal publishes research papers, review papers, policy commentaries, and conference proceedings. The Journal welcomes submissions from across the globe, and strives to ensure efficient review and publication outcomes.
