“…In line with our study, Brady, Tschann, Pasch, Flores and Ozer (2008) found that adolescents who had experienced sexual violence at age 15 were more likely to use tobacco at age 19, and those who had multiple sexual partners were more likely to use marijuana at age 19 (Brady et al, 2008). Additionally, studying the association between non-medical use of the prescription drug (NMUPD) and sexual violence among adolescents, Clayton et al (2017) reported that male victims of sexual violence were 1.61 times more likely to use NMUPD than those who did not experience sexual violence [AOR: 1.61; 95%CI: 1.21-2.12]. However, the association was not significant among female victims of sexual violence (Clayton, Lowry, Basile, Demissie, & Bohm, 2017).…”

This study explored the relationship between bullying, sexual violence and substance use among adolescents. Methods:A cross-sectional study of 14,765 adolescents using the 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) survey was conducted. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed, with substance use as the outcome and bullying and sexual violence as explanatory variables in separate models. Results:The odds of substance in bisexual adolescence was twice as heterosexuals [AOR: 2.00; 95%CI: 1.26-3.22]. Adolescents who experienced electronic bullying had 67% higher odds of substance use than those who did not experience electronic bullying [AOR: 1.67; 95%CI: 1.09-2.55]. Also, adolescents who had experienced sexual violence were had higher odds of reporting substance use than those who had not experienced sexual violence [AOR: 1.68; 95%CI: 1.15-2.45]. Additionally, those who had experienced either school bullying or electronic bullying reported higher rates of sexual violence than those who had not experienced any bullying. Conclusion:We found a strong association between bullying, sexual violence, and substance use. A multifaceted approach is needed to resolve these problems effectively.

“…NMUPD has increased steadily among young people in the last decade (usually linked to self-treatment, experimentation, and readily accessibility), and the consequent incidence of unintentional overdoses has reached epidemic levels [11,12,13]. In addition, NMUPD is a risk factor for suicide [14,15], negative sexual behavior [16,17], and poor social functioning [18].…”

Purpose: Investigations suggest non-medical use of prescription drugs (NMUPD) is associated with heavy drinking and polydrug use among university students. Our aim is to determine the prevalence of NMUPD among university students and to analyze its association with alcohol, tobacco, and cannabis use, and to study the role of the age of drinking onset. Methods: Cohort study among university Spanish students (n = 1382). Heavy drinking (HED) and risky consumption (RC) were measured with the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test. Questions related to tobacco and cannabis consumption were also formulated. NMUPD refers to sedative, anxiety, or pain medication intake within the last 15 days without medical prescription. All variables were measured at 18, 20, and 27 years. Multilevel logistic regression for repeated measures was used to obtain adjusted OR (odds ratios). We analyzed the results from a gender perspective. Results: Prevalence of NMUPD were higher in students who already partook in NMUPD at the beginning of the study. NMUPD in women at 27 is 3 times higher than at 18, while in men it is twice. Among females, RC (OR = 1.43) and cannabis consumption (OR = 1.33) are risk factors for NMUPD, while later onset of alcohol use (OR = 0.66) constitutes a protective factor. No significant differences were found for males. Conclusions: NMUPD is prevalent among university students. RC and early onset of alcohol use were associated with higher prevalence of NMUPD in females. The prevalence of NMUPD increased with age in both sexes. Strategies for reducing risky drinking and delaying onset of drinking should be provided for university students. Pharmacists and parents should be alerted to the risk of NMUPD.

“…Findings from cross‐sectional studies have found that sexual assault history and prescription opioid misuse are associated among adolescent girls . Specifically, among a national sample of adolescents, results indicated that girls with a sexual assault history were more than four times more likely to use drugs which included non‐medical use of prescription medications than those without a sexual assault history .…”

Prescription Opioid Misuse After a Recent Sexual Assault: A Randomized Clinical Trial of a Video Intervention

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background and Objectives Prescription opioid (PO) misuse is increasing and is associated with overdose. Individuals who experienced a recent sexual assault are at risk for increased substance use, yet limited interventions target PO misuse after sexual assault. The current study examined the efficacy of video interventions on PO misuse after sexual assault. Methods Adolescent girls and women (n = 154) were recruited in the context of a sexual assault medical forensic exam in the emergency department. Effects of a prevention of post‐rape stress (PPRS) video and a pleasant imagery and relaxation instruction (PIRI) video were compared with treatment as usual (TAU) during a sexual assault medical forensic exam on PO misuse. Participants reported if they had used POs for non‐medical purposes since the sexual assault at 1.5 month follow‐up. Results Results from a logistic regression analysis indicated that participants with a prior sexual assault were less likely to misuse prescription opioids 1.5 months after the assault in the PIRI condition compared with TAU. There were no main effects for video condition and no interactions for the PPRS condition on PO misuse. Discussion and Conclusions Providing the PIRI video, or teaching other types of mindfulness or relaxation exercises, may be warranted as a secondary prevention for individuals during the sexual assault medical forensic exam for those with a prior sexual assault history. Scientific Significance This research provides an initial examination of the impact of mindfulness skills recently after traumatic event exposure on PO misuse. (Am J Addict 2019;28:376–381)
