Book excerpt: Since the mid-1980s, studies indicate that lawyers are experiencing depression in numbers which exceed that of the normal population. Such circumstances have an impact on lawyers' professional responsibilities and their important relationships. This study sought to observe depression by examining variables previously reported to have some relationship to depression in lawyers (e.g., alcohol abuse and perceived stress) and added two previously unexamined variables (e.g., attributional style and work addiction). Thus, this study investigated the relationship of attributional style, (e.g., how a person explains bad or uncontrollable events, typically in either optimistic or pessimistic terms), work addiction, perceived stress, and alcohol abuse with depression in lawyers. The study collected demographic and career information through a random sample of 1000 members of the North Carolina State Bar who were anonymously surveyed by mail. Two hundred and ninety-two usable responses were received. Results of a standard multiple regression analysis indicated that over 27% were at risk for depression, 53% had pessimistic attributional styles, nearly 26% were work addicted, 51% had elevated levels of perceived stress, and 5.5% abused alcohol. Independent tests were conducted to measure the differences between males and females and an analysis of variance was conducted to measure the differences occurring between types of law firm practice and types of law firm positions.

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenon of gender differences in alcohol consumption and depressive symptomatology has been well documented. Depression and alcohol consumption pose significant problems for society in the form of psychological, emotional, and financial costs. Nonetheless, such pathology is common in North American society. The present study approaches the etiology of depressive symptoms and alcohol consumption from a cognitive-behavioral perspective. Attributional style and negative life events were hypothesized predictors of depression and alcohol consumption. Coping styles were hypothesized to predict the specific outcome; rumination was hypothesized to be associated with depression, and distraction was hypothesized to be associated with alcohol consumption. A total of 108 (51 males, 57 females) undergraduate university students, ages 18-21, completed the Beck Depression Inventory, the Khavari Alcohol Test, the Attributional. Style Questionnaire, the Response Style Questionnaire, and the Adolescent Perceived Events Scale. Descriptive analyses of the data indicated that the sample, as a whole, was characterized by mild levels of depressive symptoms, similar to comparable samples. In contrast, there were relatively low levels of alcohol consumption. Correlation analyses showed that higher levels of depressive symptoms were associated with negative events and rumination among both males and females. Among females, pessimism and wine consumption were also correlated with depression. Importantly, the gender difference in depression was not significant. With respect to alcohol, males consumed significantly more than females. Distraction was found to be negatively associated with alcohol consumption among women. Possible clinical implications are discussed, including the potential use of the study measures as screens for risk-profiling. Future directions are also discussed, and include replication of the present findings in a large, multi-cultural sample.

This book was released on 2016-09-03 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimates indicate that as many as 1 in 4 Americans will experience a mental health problem or will misuse alcohol or drugs in their lifetimes. These disorders are among the most highly stigmatized health conditions in the United States, and they remain barriers to full participation in society in areas as basic as education, housing, and employment. Improving the lives of people with mental health and substance abuse disorders has been a priority in the United States for more than 50 years. The Community Mental Health Act of 1963 is considered a major turning point in America's efforts to improve behavioral healthcare. It ushered in an era of optimism and hope and laid the groundwork for the consumer movement and new models of recovery. The consumer movement gave voice to people with mental and substance use disorders and brought their perspectives and experience into national discussions about mental health. However over the same 50-year period, positive change in American public attitudes and beliefs about mental and substance use disorders has lagged behind these advances. Stigma is a complex social phenomenon based on a relationship between an attribute and a stereotype that assigns undesirable labels, qualities, and behaviors to a person with that attribute. Labeled individuals are then socially devalued, which leads to inequality and discrimination. This report contributes to national efforts to understand and change attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that can lead to stigma and discrimination. Changing stigma in a lasting way will require coordinated efforts, which are based on the best possible evidence, supported at the national level with multiyear funding, and planned and implemented by an effective coalition of representative stakeholders. Ending Discrimination Against People with Mental and Substance Use Disorders: The Evidence for Stigma Change explores stigma and discrimination faced by individuals with mental or substance use disorders and recommends effective strategies for reducing stigma and encouraging people to seek treatment and other supportive services. It offers a set of conclusions and recommendations about successful stigma change strategies and the research needed to inform and evaluate these efforts in the United States.

Book excerpt: "Children of Substance-Abusing Parents: Dynamics and Treatment" is a necessary reference for all mental health professionals and students who need to understand and treat this population. It offers an invaluable look attreatment options and programmatic interventions across the life span and fills an important gap in the current literature. The contributors include a wide range of experts who provide up-to-date evidence-based clinical and programmatic strategies for working with children of alcohol and other substance-abusing parents of any age and in almost any practice setting. This highly recommended book is a valuable resource for all practitioners and students concerned about this very large, but often hidden group of individuals and families." From the Foreword by Sis Wenger President/CEO National Association for Children of Alcoholics Parental drug abuse and alcoholism have an enormously detrimental impact on children and adolescents. Children whose parents suffer from drug abuse or alcoholism often face multiple physical, mental, and behavioral issues. They are at a greater risk for depression, anxiety, low self esteem, and addiction, and also are known to have poor school attendance, difficulty concentrating, and lower IQ scores. This book offers health care practitioners proactive programs and innovative strategies to use with this vulnerable population. Taking a comprehensive, life course approach, the authors discuss the implications and interventions at the prenatal stage, through childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, and adulthood. With this book, social workers and health care practitioners can help assess and intervene with children of substance abusing parents. Key topics: Dynamics in families with substance abusing parents and treatment implications Issues across the life span of children of substance abusing parents Prevention and early intervention programs for pregnant women who abuse substances Programs for young children, adolescents, college students, and children with incarcerated parents

Book excerpt: The book deals with the concept of Heavy Work Investment (HWI) recently initiated by Snir and Harpaz. Since its introduction the interest in the general HWI model has increased considerably. The book illustrates the development of HWI conceptualization, theory, and research. It deals with the foremost HWI subtype of workaholism. However, it also compares workaholism as a "negative" HWI subtype with work devotion/passion/engagement, as a "positive" HWI subtype. Most importantly, it addresses HWI in general, including its possible situational subtypes. In view of Snir and Harpaz's claim that the study of situational heavy work investors is relatively scarce, this certainly constitutes a promising step in the right direction. Finally, it deals with timely and important topics examined by prominent international researchers on Heavy Work Investment and such issues as: personality factors of workaholism, work-life balance, cross-cultural similarities and differences in HWI, work addiction and technology, HWI and retirement, and intergenerational similarity in work investment.
