Nevertheless, achieving better-than-expected outcomes in the face of adversity is by no means an unusual outcome for those young people. This study presents an understanding of the interactional resilience process between 15 National University of Lesotho undergraduate students and people in their social environment as a result of sharing adverse experiences. An interactional resilience perspective that builds on from the social-ecology and person-in-environment viewpoints on resilience, informed the study. Various in-depth interviews were conducted together with a draw-and-write technique. Findings show that the sharing of similar and diverse adverse experiences between young people raised by alcohol-misusing caregivers and significant people in their social ecology improved their resilience. Given the significance of sharing adverse experiences by the participants, established in this study, support groups (e.g., at schools, churches, community centers) could be very helpful in promoting the resilience of vulnerable young people. Social service practitioners, working with young people growing up in vulnerable environments, should help these young people develop interactive skills including the ability to be more communicative and be more receptive to sharing hard to share experiences with trustworthy people.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"40 1","pages":"481 - 499"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41682902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recovery community centers have emerged alongside formal substance use treatment and mutual self-help groups as another option to support peoples’ recovery. Research on the helpfulness of recovery community centers is limited. The purpose of this paper was to describe what Staff and Member Facilitators perceived as helpful components of a recovery community center. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 Staff and six Member Facilitators of a recovery community center, Recovery Café, in Seattle, Washington. Qualitative interviews were analyzed via grounded theory approach. Eleven themes emerged on the helpful components of Recovery Café, including tangible/infrastructure and intangible/experiential strengths. Three themes related to opportunities for program improvement. Many themes on the helpful components were consistent with prior research on recovery community centers and other supports for recovery. Findings provide insight into potential active ingredients and mechanisms of recovery community centers and highlight the potential role of recovery capital. Additional research is needed to test these components to improve the understanding of if and how recovery community centers work to support people with substance use disorders in recovery.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"62 - 75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48703472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used clinical data mining (CDM) methodology for this study. The clinical data we used is from client records at three substance use day treatment locations (N = 444). These sites operate under the same agency. We analyzed four measures of positive interpersonal associations including outside support systems, substance-using housing environments, 12-Step involvement, and sponsorship in a 12-Step program. Using 10 imputed datasets to run the model, we found these variables to not significantly influence treatment length of stay. However, there was a significant relationship between number of children each client had and length of stay. Results suggest that other factors may better account for varying time clients spend in treatment. Further research on the effect of other influences, such as interpersonal associations specifically within treatment, on a client’s length of stay is important.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"40 1","pages":"443 - 454"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45755960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we are excited and honored to serve as Co-Editors-in-Chief and approach this work with a sense of responsibility rooted in passion, humility, and devotion. As alcohol and substance use researchers and clinicians, we believe editors have the opportunity to influence people, ideas, and outcomes across the entire spectrum of multiple industries. These impacts can span from directly influencing the lives of the many people who need help to informing legislative and regulatory efforts changes and outcomes. Our journal includes board members, authors, and readers from numerous professional specialty areas, and provides space for diverse theoretical and empirical approaches. Our primary responsibility is to ensure that our scholarship creates opportunities to enhance the science of our industries. This is especially true that we do it in a way that is relevant to the greatest number of people, organizations, and professions as possible. Our history at ATQ has been to highlight new and innovative approaches to treatment and recovery, describing clinical problems and solutions, and detailing practical, unique approaches to intervention, therapy, and recovery. Potential authors are encouraged to target and construct studies that include an experimental design when appropriate. We would like to feature articles that describe novel approaches to alcohol and substance-related research, practices, and topics that also include findings, thoughts, or recommendations across the continuum of care. There is still a shortage of recovery-focused research. In that vein, we also encourage authors to submit manuscripts that describe both shortand long-term outcomes. The role and impact of community, employment, family, and prevention are all topics of significant importance. An emerging trend in treatment and recovery perspectives regards interprofessional approaches, including both settings and practitioners. Authors are encouraged to explore this topic as it relates to expectancies, policy and management perspectives, treatment and research designs, and their related effect on patient, family, and community outcomes. Similarly, we also encourage authors to consider the role of new and emerging technologies such as mhealth, telemedicine, and telehealth, and to explore and employ a variety of methodological approaches, including quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods designs and approaches. Innovative and contemporary research will ensure that the scientific basis for our work is relevant and continues to evolve.

Functional interhemispheric connectivity across PFC regions may be important aspect of networking while seeking abstinence from AUD. This study examines functional PFC activation of persons seeking continued abstinence from AUD to explore potential interhemispheric connectivity in response to alcohol cues and how such connectivity is associated with abstinence duration. Method This study analyzed cerebral blood flow from PFC regional associations or couplings of 46 persons seeking continued abstinence from AUD were presented with alcohol and other affective cues. Intraclass correlations calculated using multilevel modeling (MLM) served as a measure of functional interhemispheric connectivity. Results Connectivity was found in response to alcohol and other affective cues. Results also suggest that interhemispheric connectivity in response to alcohol cues is negatively associated with abstinence duration. Conclusions Findings of this study suggest that functional interhemispheric connectivity may be important during the processing of alcohol-related cues for persons seeking continued abstinence from AUD. Abstaining from consumption in the early stages of abstinence may be a particularly high demand task requiring both PFC hemispheres, with this need decreasing as abstinence length increases.","PeriodicalId":45949,"journal":{"name":"Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly","volume":"40 1","pages":"420 - 442"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46665467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
