Abstract

Risk-taking behavior is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and is elevated among women experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV) and using substances. With the goal of advancing rigorous research on risk-taking behavior, this study examined the concordance of propensity for emotion-dependent risk-taking in the laboratory and emotion-dependent substance use and sexual behavior in the real world among women experiencing IPV and using substances. Women experiencing IPV were recruited from community establishments between 2018 and 2020 (N = 142; M_age = 40.63; 57.8% Person of Color). In the laboratory, participants underwent a randomly assigned negative, positive, or neutral emotion induction, following which they completed a behavioral measure of risk-taking propensity. Then, for the succeeding 30 days, they completed thrice daily surveys on emotion states and risk-taking behavior. Participants were more likely to drink alcohol, use cannabis, use illicit drugs, and have condomless sex during elevated (versus not elevated) negative and positive emotion states. However, participants did not exhibit greater risk-taking propensity in the laboratory in the context of negative and positive emotion states. Further, negative and positive emotion-dependent risk-taking propensity in the laboratory was not associated with negative and positive emotion-dependent risk-taking behavior in the real-world. Findings suggest the need for additional research that evaluates the utility of laboratory paradigms in the prediction of emotion-dependent risk-taking in the real-world.

期刊介绍： The major focus of Behaviour Research and Therapy is an experimental psychopathology approach to understanding emotional and behavioral disorders and their prevention and treatment, using cognitive, behavioral, and psychophysiological (including neural) methods and models. This includes laboratory-based experimental studies with healthy, at risk and subclinical individuals that inform clinical application as well as studies with clinically severe samples. The following types of submissions are encouraged: theoretical reviews of mechanisms that contribute to psychopathology and that offer new treatment targets; tests of novel, mechanistically focused psychological interventions, especially ones that include theory-driven or experimentally-derived predictors, moderators and mediators; and innovations in dissemination and implementation of evidence-based practices into clinical practice in psychology and associated fields, especially those that target underlying mechanisms or focus on novel approaches to treatment delivery. In addition to traditional psychological disorders, the scope of the journal includes behavioural medicine (e.g., chronic pain). The journal will not consider manuscripts dealing primarily with measurement, psychometric analyses, and personality assessment.
