Abstract

Existing evidence relates internalizing psychopathology to nonfatal opioid overdose. Identifying variables that account for associations between internalizing symptomology and overdose could improve clinical conceptualizations of overdose risk and inform testable, mechanistic hypotheses. Mood-based facets of impulsivity, such as negative and positive urgency, are promising candidate variables that have been linked to both internalizing symptoms and negative substance use outcomes. Therefore, the present study tested whether these facets accounted for internalizing-overdose associations. We conducted a secondary, cross-sectional data analysis of lifetime opioid-exposed patients presenting to three large, urban emergency departments in Ohio. Bivariate associations between measures of internalizing conditions, mood-related urgency, and nonfatal opioid overdose were calculated, and the extent to which negative and positive urgency accounted for associations between internalizing constructs and nonfatal opioid overdose was examined. To determine the specificity of findings, we compared results to other impulsivity facets and models testing internalizing-impulsivity interactions. Negative urgency demonstrated a unique role in accounting for relationships between internalizing constructs and lifetime nonfatal opioid overdose. No other impulsivity facet, including positive urgency, reliably accounted for internalizing-overdose relations. No internalizing-urgency interactions were observed. Negative urgency was the only facet to reliably explain overlap in internalizing-overdose associations. Overdose-prevention efforts should consider the dual roles of internalizing symptoms and negative urgency as risk factors for opioid overdose. Implications for testing causal hypotheses are discussed. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved).

负面急迫性解释了内化症状与俄亥俄州三个城市急诊科患者终生非致命性阿片类药物过量之间的关联。
现有证据表明,内化精神病理与非致命性阿片类药物过量有关。确定内化症状和过量用药之间的关联变量可以改善过量用药风险的临床概念,并为可测试的机制假设提供信息。冲动的基于情绪的方面,如消极和积极的紧迫性,是有希望的候选变量,与内化症状和消极的物质使用结果有关。因此,本研究测试了这些方面是否与内化过量相关。我们对俄亥俄州三个大型城市急诊科就诊的终生阿片类药物暴露患者进行了二次横断面数据分析。计算了内化条件、情绪相关紧迫性和非致命性阿片类药物过量测量之间的双变量关联,并检查了内化结构和非致命性阿片类药物过量之间负性和正性紧迫性的关联程度。为了确定结果的特异性,我们将结果与其他冲动性方面和测试内化-冲动性相互作用的模型进行了比较。负紧迫感在解释内化结构与终生非致命性阿片类药物过量之间的关系方面发挥了独特的作用。没有其他冲动方面,包括积极的紧迫性,可靠地解释了内化-过量的关系。没有观察到内化-紧迫感相互作用。负急迫性是唯一能够可靠地解释内化过量关联重叠的方面。过量预防工作应考虑内化症状和消极急迫性作为阿片类药物过量危险因素的双重作用。讨论了检验因果假设的含义。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA,版权所有)。
