This cross-disciplinary journal examines addictive behaviours from a variety of perspectives and methods of inquiry. Disciplines represented in the journal include Anthropology, Economics, Epidemiology, Medicine, Sociology, Psychology and History, but high quality contributions from other relevant areas will also be considered. The journal publishes articles on all aspects of addiction, placing particular value on contributions that explore creatively new avenues of inquiry. Submissions to Addiction Research and Theory are peer reviewed and published if they are both good of their kind and are within the journal​s focus. Articles include theoretical, philosophical and political essays, research papers, state-of-the-science reviews, and descriptions of how to apply research on addictive behaviours to evidence-based clinical practice.

    CHAPTER 2 Infrastructure and Career Opportunities in Addiction Science : The Emergence of an Interdisciplinary Field Thomas F. Babor, Dominique Morisano, Jonathan Noel, Katherine Robaina, Judit H. Ward and Andrea L. Mitchell Introduction During the latter part of the 20th century, there was rapid growth in the number of people employed in the societal management of social and medical problems associated with the use of alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drugs (Edwards & Babor, 2012). At the same time, similar growth occurred in the number of institutions and individuals engaged in addiction science. The current worldwide infra- structure of addiction science includes numerous research funding sources, more than 90 specialized scholarly journals, scores of professional societies, over 200 research centers, more than 80 specialty training programs, and thou- sands of scientists. The purpose of this chapter is to describe the global infrastructure support- ing addiction science and the career opportunities available to addiction sci- entists. The current global infrastructure is evaluated from two perspectives: (a) its ability to produce basic knowledge about the causes of addiction and the mechanisms by which psychoactive substances affect health and well-being and (b) its ability to address substance-related problems throughout the world at both the individual and the population levels.

Ward Center of Alcohol Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey Abstract This paper is an attempt to suggest a critical framework for addiction information literacy. Since the ACRL information literacy standards were updated in 2015, our field is in need of guidelines about how to translate its general principles to meet the special needs of our diverse audiences. The authors wish to identify the unique application of the ACRL standards to the field of addiction science. An applied and transdisciplinary science requires a particular emphasis on evaluating sources and a special regard for the sensitive nature of the information sought.

  • Paths to Improving Engagement Among Racial and Ethnic Minorities in Addiction Health Services Erick G
    Guerrero et al. Substance Abuse Treatment, Prevention, and Policy (2015) 10:40 DOI 10.1186/s13011-015-0036-z RESEARCH Open Access Paths to improving engagement among racial and ethnic minorities in addiction health services Erick G. Guerrero1*, Karissa Fenwick1, Yinfei Kong1, Christine Grella2 and Thomas D’Aunno3 Abstract Background: Members of racial and ethnic minority groups are most likely to experience limited access and poor engagement in addiction treatment. Research has been limited on the role of program capacity and delivery of comprehensive care in improving access and retention among minorities with drug abuse issues. The goal of this study was to examine the extent to which access and retention are enhanced when racial and ethnic minorities receive care from high-capacity addiction health services (AHS) programs and via coordination with mental health and receipt of HIV testing services. Methods: This multilevel cross-sectional analysis involved data from 108 programs merged with client data from 2011 for 13,478 adults entering AHS. Multilevel negative binomial regression models were used to test interactions and indirect relationships between program capacity and days to enter treatment (wait time) and days in treatment (retention). Results: Compared to low-capacity programs and non-Latino and non-African American clients, Latinos and African Americans served in high-capacity programs reported shorter wait times to admission, as hypothesized. African Americans also had longer treatment retention in high-capacity programs. Receipt of HIV testing and program coordination of mental health services played an indirect role in the relationship between program capacity and wait time. Conclusions: Program capacity and coordinated services in AHS may reduce disparities in access to care.

  • The Neurobiology of Addiction: the Perspective from Magnetic Resonance Imaging Present and Future
    HORIZONS REVIEW doi:10.1111/add.13474 The neurobiology of addiction: the perspective from magnetic resonance imaging present and future John Suckling1,2 &LiamJ.Nestor1,3 Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural and Clinical Neuroscience Institute, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK,1 Cambridge and Peterborough Foundation NHS Trust, Cambridge, UK2 and Centre for Neuropsychopharmacology, Division of Brain Sciences, Imperial College London, London, UK3 ABSTRACT Background and Aims Addiction is associated with severe economic and social consequences and personal tragedies, the scientific exploration of which draws upon investigations at the molecular, cellular and systems levels with a wide variety of technologies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been key to mapping effects observed at the microscopic and mesoscopic scales. The range of measurements from this apparatus has opened new avenues linking neurobiology to behaviour. This review considers the role of MRI in addiction research, and what future technological improvements might offer. Methods A hermeneutic strategy supplemented by an expansive, systematic search of PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science databases, covering from database inception to October 2015, with a conjunction of search terms relevant to addiction and MRI. Formal meta-analyses were prioritized. Results Results from methods that probe brain structure and function suggest frontostriatal circuitry disturbances within specific cognitive domains, some of which predict drug relapse and treatment response. New methods of processing imaging data are opening opportunities for understanding the role of cerebral vasculature, a global view of brain communication and the complex topology of the cortical surface and drug action. Future technological advances include increases in MRI field strength, with concomitant improvements in image quality.
