Substance Use Disorders Affecting Sleep01:24

Substance Use Disorders Affecting Sleep

531
Substance use disorders involve a pattern of using drugs more extensively than intended and continuing use despite harmful consequences. This includes legal substances like alcohol and nicotine, as well as illegal drugs. These disorders often involve both physical and psychological dependence, reflecting compulsive use of substances that significantly alter thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to a major public health issue.

Influence of Parents and Peers on Identity

702
Adolescence is a pivotal period of identity formation, during which individuals begin to answer questions central to their sense of self, such as "Who am I?" and "Who do I hope to become?" Both parents and peers play critical roles in guiding adolescents through this complex developmental phase.
Parental Influence on Identity Development
Parents serve as primary guides and managers in an adolescent's life, offering support instrumental in decision-making and personal growth....

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

45.1K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.9K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Drug Abuse and Addiction: Pharmacological Phenomena

1.5K
Drug dependence, abuse, and addiction are complex phenomena that can precipitate various abnormal states. Physical dependence refers to a state of pharmacological adaptation to a drug. This adaptation often results in tolerance—a reduced response to the drug after repeated administrations. When the drug use is abruptly stopped, withdrawal symptoms occur due to the body's need to readjust from the pharmacologically induced imbalance. However, tolerance and withdrawal symptoms do not...

Erikson's Theory on Socioemotional Development during Adolescence

1.8K
Erik Erikson's fifth stage of psychosocial development, "identity versus role confusion," is crucial during adolescence (ages 12 to 18). In this stage, adolescents face the developmental task of forging a distinct personal identity, a process influenced by social, psychological, and biological changes typical of this period. Adolescents naturally explore different roles, behaviors, and ideologies as they navigate complex questions of self-concept, asking, "Who am I?" and "What is my place in...

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Adolescent Health
    • Substance Use Research

    Background:

    • Adolescent substance use is a significant public health concern.
    • Understanding the interplay between personality and substance use is crucial for prevention and intervention strategies.
    • Longitudinal studies are vital for tracking developmental patterns in substance use and personality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the relationship between personality traits and patterns of adolescent substance use.
    • To determine the extent of overlap between the domains of personality and adolescent drug use.
    • To identify specific personality dimensions associated with general substance use in adolescents.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal study design tracking adolescent drug use over time.
    • Self-report data collection on personality and the use of 13 different substances.
    • Canonical correlation analysis to interrelate personality and drug use data.
    • Rotation of canonical variates and cross-validation for robust result interpretation.

    Main Results:

    • A single dimension of general substance use was significantly associated with a cluster of personality traits and attitudes.
    • The overlap between personality domains and adolescent substance use patterns was found to be moderately high.
    • Personality traits accounted for a relatively low proportion of the variance in adolescent substance use.

    Conclusions:

    • While personality and substance use are linked in adolescents, personality alone has limited predictive power for individual substance use variations.
    • Further research is needed to explore other factors influencing adolescent substance use.
    • These findings can inform targeted interventions by highlighting specific personality correlates of general substance use.
