Results of the 1977 southern California pismo clam survey
A Pismo clam, Tivela stultorum, survey was conducted
in January 1977 on selected southern California beaches.
Effort and catch information was collected through clammer interviews. Estimates for the two day survey were 1,596
clammers spending 2,506 hours to take 6,139 clams. Comparisons were made between the 1977 survey results and
previous surveys.
Clams were collected for length and age studies. Compliance
to the 4.5-inch (114.3 mm) minimum size limit appeared to be good. (15pp.

Men and women from the STRIDE clinical trial: An assessment of stimulant abstinence symptom severity at residential treatment entry
Background and Objectives
Gender‐specific factors associated with stimulant abstinence severity were examined in a stimulant abusing or dependent residential treatment sample (N = 302). Method
Bivariate statistics tested gender differences in stimulant abstinence symptoms, measured by participant‐reported experiences of early withdrawal. Multivariate linear regression examined gender and other predictors of stimulant abstinence symptom severity. Results
Women compared to men reported greater stimulant abstinence symptom severity. Anxiety disorders and individual anxiety‐related abstinence symptoms accounted for this difference. African American race/ethnicity was predictive of lower stimulant abstinence severity. Discussion and Conclusions
Women were more sensitive to anxiety‐related stimulant withdrawal symptoms. Scientific Significance
Clinics that address anxiety‐related abstinence symptoms, which more commonly occur in women, may improve treatment outcome. (Am J Addict 2015;XX:XX –XX
