Analysis of Substance Use and Impulsivity in Relation to Juveniles Committing an Offense

Research suggests that among high-risk adolescents there is a strong relationship between substance use and having committed an offense. Further, adolescents with impulsive personality characteristics are more likely to use or abuse alcohol and other substances than their less impulsive peers. Therefore, impulsivity may be one potential mediator in the relationship between adolescent alcohol use and externalizing disorders such as conduct disorder, which increases the likelihood of committing an offense large enough to end up in a juvenile detention facility. Using a subset of data collected from a larger longitudinal study, this study utilized behavioral and neuroimaging data to examine the relationship between substance use, impulsivity, and committing an offense among a population of adolescent offenders. Participants (n=225), were between the ages of 14-18 years and were recruited from the Youth Reporting Center (YRC) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Impulsivity was significantly correlated with having committed an offense (r = .176, p \u3c .01), and was also correlated with, alcohol use (r = .167, p \u3c .01), alcohol related problems (r = .289, p \u3c .01), and alcohol dependence (r = .213, p \u3c .01). Contrary to previous research findings, none of the alcohol measures were significantly correlated with committing an offense. The orbitofrontal cortex, amygdala, nucleus accumbens, and cerebellum volumes were also not correlated with impulsivity or having committed an offense. Although results were not in line with hypotheses, they do offer insight into the complex relationship between adolescent substance use and personality characteristics

The Use of Drug Testing to Police Sex and Gender in the Olympic Games

Part I of this Article discusses the history and development of sex testing and drug testing and argues that the two are both historically and ideologically linked. Part II examines the current Code in detail and argues that the Code\u27s focus on hormone-based controls acts to police sex and gender in Olympic athletes, thereby extending historical sex testing practices to a new era. This Article ultimately concludes that without recognizing and addressing the need for further research into the role of sex hormones in the body and the interplay of social context and biological circumstances, the IOC cannot maintain an anti-doping plan that serves its fairness and equality goals

Programa de Conservação e Recuperação de Nascentes e Matas Ciliares da Bacia do Rio Acre

O programa de Conservação e Recuperação de Nascentes e Matas Ciliares da Bacia do Rio Acre foi desenvolvido em 09 municípios no estado do Acre: Assis Brasil, Brasiléia, Epitaciolândia, Xapuri, Capixaba, Rio Branco, Bujari, Porto Acre e Senador Guiomard. O objetivo principal é integrar a sociedade no processo de conservação e recuperação de nascentes e matas ciliares, adotando práticas de restauração da vegetação, combinadas com mecanismos de formação, comunicação e educação ambiental - ações estas consideradas “ações sem arrependimento”. O programa busca reverter os processos de degradação nas Áreas de Preservação Permanente – APP - e valorizar iniciativas individuais e coletivas de salvaguarda das florestas, da biodiversidade, dos recursos hídricos, dos valores culturais das populações tradicionais e da população em geral.Carlos Edgard de Deus e Maria Antônia Zabala de Almeida NobreE-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]: (68) 98415-1973 / (68) 99913-0866Endereço: Rua Benjamim Constant, 856, Centro, Rio Branco - Acre.Finalist
