本研究探讨冲动和情感不稳定性和甲基苯丙胺和酒精滥用和依赖症状之间的关联在农村住院治疗人群（N= 235）。32%的参与者报告在入院前90天内使用过甲基苯丙胺。安非他明使用障碍在年轻参与者中更常见，而酒精使用障碍在老年人和美洲原住民参与者中更常见。在控制年龄、性别、使用频率和注射使用后，冲动性而不是影响不稳定性与甲基苯丙胺滥用有关，但与依赖症状无关。在控制了年龄、性别和使用频率后，不稳定性而非冲动性与酒精依赖相关，而与滥用症状无关。与以往的流行病学研究一致，结果表明，甲基苯丙胺的使用是农村药物使用治疗设施面临的一个突出问题。情感不稳定性和冲动性与该人群中的甲基苯丙胺和酒精相关问题有关。(c)2005爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The present study examined associations between impulsivity and affect lability and methamphetamine and alcohol abuse and dependence symptoms in a rural inpatient treatment population (N= 235). Thirty-two percent of participants reported methamphetamine use in the past 90 days prior to admission. Amphetamine use disorders were found to be more common among younger participants whereas alcohol use disorders were more common among older and Native American participants. After controlling for age, gender, use frequency, and injection use, impulsivity but not affect lability was associated with methamphetamine abuse but not dependence symptoms. Lability but not impulsivity was associated with alcohol dependence but not abuse symptoms after controlling for age, gender, and use frequency. Consistent with past epidemiological studies, results indicate that methamphetamine use is a prominent problem facing rural substance use treatment facilities. Affect lability and impulsivity are associated with methamphetamine and alcohol-related problems in this population. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
