Trajectory of Substance Use Disorders and Collegiate Recovery in Emerging Adults

Abstract Collegiate Recovery Programs (CRPs) provide services to support emerging adults achieve academic success, while maintaining substance use disorder recovery. College and university campuses can often be considered abstinence-hostile environments, giving rise to the need of support services for students in recovery. A nationwide survey to understand the efficacy of services provided by CRPs was conducted to assess the demographics and academic profiles of students involved with CRPs. Co-occurring disorders including mental health issues, criminal histories, utilizations of recovery services and 12-step groups, and work histories of students were also assessed. CRPs can provide services and an environment to students that increase recovery capital domains. Recovery capital domains such as spirituality, health and wellness, academics, critical thinking and discernment, personal achievement, and service opportunities may be related to metrics of academic success such as grade point average. However, measuring success for those in substance use disorder recovery through academics metrics alone could present a barrier to improving recovery services. Assessing the effectiveness of CRP programs through the lens of recovery capital offers a strengths-based, wholistic approach to improving services for students in recovery. Future directions include administering comprehensive measurements for recovery success, in addition to academic metrics, for students that are members of CRP.

Team building and hidden costs of control

In a laboratory experiment, we investigate the interaction of two prominent firm strategies to increase worker effort: team building and control. We compare a team-building treatment where subjects initially play a coordination game to gain common experience (CE) with an autarky treatment where subjects individually perform a task (NCE). In both treatments, subjects then play two-player control games where agents provide costly effort and principals can control to secure a minimum effort. CE agents always outperform NCE agents. Conditional on control, however, CE agents’ effort is crowded out more strongly, with the effect being most pronounced for agents who successfully coordinated in the team-building exercise. Differential reactions to control perceived as excessive is one explanation for our findings

Semiconductor grade, solar silicon purification project. Technical quarterly report No. 10, April 1--June 30, 1978

The technical progress reported is divided into seven task areas. They are as follows: (1) thermal disproportionation of Si/sub x/F/sub y/ homologues on Si packed beds. Effort has been directed toward the study of the thermal disproportionation of Si/sub x/F/sub y/ homologues on Si packed beds at 850/sup 0/C and 500/sup 0/C. (2) review of experimental results on the near-continuous reactor. The silicon transport data from forty runs conducted on the near-continuous reactor are summarized and discussed. (3) thermal analysis of (SiF/sub 2/)/sub x/ polymer. At 276 to 286/sup 0/C a strong exothermic transition occurs in the (SiF/sub 2/)/sub x/ polymer. The enthalpy (..delta..H) measured by D.S.C. was -44.37 cal/gm. Other smaller endotherms were observed at 96/sup 0/C and 363/sup 0/C. (4) motorola purification therodynamics. In the Appendix can be found thermodynamic calculations for the predicted SiF/sub 4/ to SiF/sub 2/ conversion efficiencies for Step I in the SiF/sub 4/ transport purification process. (5) polymer condensation. It was concluded from the polymer condensation experiments at 0/sup 0/C that substrates and higher pressures in the polymer condensation unit increase condensation efficiency. However, the higher pressure occurring in these experiments markedly reduced the Step I reaction efficiency. (6) crystal growth. Single crystal silicon grown from silicon powder from the near-continuous reactor was shown to be 0.95 ohm cm ''p'' type at the seed end and 2 to 7 ohm cm ''N'' type at the tang. (7) process plant costing. Revised process plant costing estimates for a 1000 metric ton/year plant projects a $7.71/kg total product cost. This is based on a fixed capital investment of$9.1 MM in January 1975 dollars

Semiconductor grade, solar silicon purification project. Technical quarterly report No. 8, 1 October 1977--31 December 1977. Motorola report No. 2257/8

The technical progress reported in the current quarterly report can be divided into five task areas. They are as follows: (1) Spectroscopic Analysis and Characterization of the (SiF/sub 2/)/sub x/ Polymer and Si/sub x/F/sub y/ Homologues. Preliminary analysis utilizing N.M.R., T.G.A., D.S.C. and Mass Spec. are consistent with both the (SiF/sub 2/)/sub x/ polymer and Si/sub x/F/sub y/ homologues being nearly identical in chemical composition (mainly SiF/sub 2/ group in long chain polymers or cyclic homologues) and thermal stability. (2) Experiments Involving Si/sub x/F/sub y/ Homologue Conversion Chemical Vapor Deposition of Silicon. Results from these experiments demonstrate that a bed of heated (850/sup 0/C) silicon chunks is an effective way to convert the homologues into silicon in high yield. (3) Demonstration Runs on the Near-Continuous Apparatus. The near-continuous apparatus has been operated at rates greater than or equal to 25 gm/hr in two multihour series of runs for silicon production and parameter optimization. In the most recent series, the apparatus was operated for 8 hours in a near-continuous fashion during which 155 grams of silicon was purified and a weighed silicon mass balance revealed approximately 100 percent of the silicon accounted for. (4) Economic Analysis. An economic analysis incorporating a Si/sub x/F/sub y/ recycle step in the purification process reduces the cost of purifying silicon via the present process (assuming $10MM fixed capital investment) to$7.68/Kg Si. (5) Silicon Sample Analysis. Representative silicon samples have been submitted for SSMS elemental analyses. As they become available they will be reported
