The study was conducted with 208 individuals who applied for treatment at an Alcohol and Substance Addiction Research, Treatment, and Education Center in Türkiye. Data were collected by a personal information form, the Three-Dimensional Attachment Styles Scale, the Connor-Davidson Psychological Resilience Scale-Short Form, and the Coping with Stress Inventory. Percentages and means, student t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, and regression analyses were used in the analysis of data. According to the research findings, it was determined that individuals had high secure and anxious attachment scores, and moderate avoidant attachment scores. In addition, it was determined that the participants had moderate psychological resilience, but their ineffective coping with stress scores were high. A positive and significant relationship was found between secure attachment and psychological resilience in individuals with alcohol and substance use disorders. Similarly, a positive significant relationship was found between secure attachment and effectively coping with stress. Finally, it was determined that the most important variables predicting ineffective coping with stress were family relationships, psychological resilience, and avoidant attachment. Based on these findings, it can be said that improving family relationships, increasing psychological resilience, and educating and supporting parents to establish secure attachment relationships can be beneficial in order to protect individuals from substance abuse.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144956678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the West Bank, Palestine, societal stigma around substance use obstructs open conversations and precise evaluations, underscoring the importance of a thorough assessment of drug users in rehabilitation facilities. This study aimed to explore the epidemiology of drug abuse among Palestinian patients in rehabilitation centers and the treatment modalities employed. The study examined 1,141 medical files of patients aged 14-73 years from two rehabilitation centers, covering the period from 2014 to 2023. The majority (73.67%) were young adults (18-39 years), tobacco smokers (97.3%), and alcohol users (44.3%). Additionally, 8.2% of patients were diagnosed with various infections, primarily hepatitis C. Most patients sought treatment voluntarily, with 78.2% entering the centers through self-referral. The most commonly detected substances in the urine samples were cannabis (35.2%), morphine (38.8%), benzodiazepines (32.8%), and ecstasy (21%). Furthermore, 35.37% of patients were prescribed carbamazepine, while 30.71% received methadone, with 61.3% struggling to adhere to their prescribed regimens. The relapse rate was high (82.5%), with 6.2% of patients experiencing three or more relapses. The key factors contributing to relapse included peer influence and withdrawal symptoms. The analysis of treatment modalities employed highlighted a comprehensive integration of pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy, and social support systems, emphasizing a holistic approach to recovery. The insights derived from this study aim to inform policymakers and healthcare providers about the specific needs of drug users in rehabilitation, ultimately contributing to the enhancement of treatment strategies and public health initiatives in the region.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-21"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144855395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We found that most of the participants were dependent on betel quid. BQD Scale scores increased with the participant's age and the frequency of daily betel quid chewing and decreased with increasing educational attainment, being in the precontemplation stage, and having better self-perceived oral health status. Significant associations were observed between sociodemographic, behavioral, or psychosocial factors and betel quid dependence and the 'Stages of Change' model emerged as a useful predictor of dependency levels, more so than the MTSS scale, indicating its potential application in tailoring cessation interventions.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144804221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The context and motives for use, and the sources of supply are discussed. Sixteen respondents who self-reported using cocaine were recruited through key informants and interviewed via a virtual platform after informed consent was elicited. Cocaine (a.k.a. Coke) is used occasionally as a stimulant \"party drug\" by professionals, primarily to remain alert and focused while socializing, and to enable greater tolerance of alcohol and to experience higher euphoria. Although sold at exorbitant prices, it can be easily obtained through trusted close contacts. To avoid detection, cocaine is used privately at home-based parties and selected pubs with a small group of friends. Cocaine in the form of a white powder is usually snorted irregularly at intervals of thirty minutes to an hour. The consumption of cocaine was not associated with dependence, withdrawal, or adverse health effects in the sample. Further studies are needed to understand the context of cocaine use, its trafficking route, and associated health issues to enable constructive intervention.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144784441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the relation attachment style and codependency and affecting factors among individuals with substance use disorders in Eastern Turkey. Using purposive sampling method, 232 individuals with SUDs enrolled in Alcohol and Substance Addiction Treatment Center at Van located in eastern Turkey between June- August 2023. The Adult Attachment Style Scale and the Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale were used. Descriptive measures were used for analysis and Independent Samples T-test and Pearson's correlation coefficient for inferential analysis. Lastly, a multiple linear regression model was run to determine significant predictors of codependency. Variables significantly correlated with participants' attachment style included kind of substances, marital status. Participants' codependency was correlated with having children. There was a weak positive correlation between avoidant attachment style and codependency. A moderate positive correlation was found between anxious/ambivalent attachment style and codependency. Variables significantly correlated with participants' attachment style included kind of substances, marital status. Participants' codependency was correlated with having children. Through the analysis of multiple linear regression, it came to light that significant predictors of codependency in the final model could account for 24.1% of the variance in codependency. The results of the current study provide insight into the relations between substance use, attachment, and codependency. The results are useful for the treatment team in developing a care and treatment plan for individuals with SUDs.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144674949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines attitudes toward female smoking among individuals affiliated with Palestinian universities through semi-structured Zoom interviews with 50 participants (23 men, 27 women) from universities in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Using qualitative thematic analysis, we identified six superordinate themes: cultural shifts, family relations, health and psychological factors, religious and moral debates, media portrayals, and pathways toward support. Findings reveal that younger urban women often perceive waterpipe smoking as more socially permissible than cigarettes, whereas more traditional views persist even within academic communities. Participants noted that family tensions, persistent double standards, and concerns about \"honor\" sometimes lead women to smoke covertly. They also highlighted the need for empathy-based interventions that address both social stigma and mental health challenges. This study enriches regional literature on female smoking by demonstrating how tobacco use can function as a coping mechanism and a contested emblem of autonomy among university communities in Palestine.","PeriodicalId":15812,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnicity in Substance Abuse","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144600628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study aims to identify the components of gamification on user attraction, involvement, and flow. The gathered data were examined using the content analysis technique, which was used to collect data using the qualitative research method. Finally, a model was constructed that can be used to create and build exercise applications. Narration, feedback, level, progress boards, and other components have been identified, and team building and sharing, as well as the social aspect of applications, have been presented and enhanced, and different aspects have been added to applications, as well as the dynamics and mechanics that affect them.
