Abstract:

A new model for substance abuse prevention for athletic teams is described. This model employs the concept of peer education but has each team elect members they regard as leaders to become the peer educators. These student athletes are then trained to work as internal resources for their respective teams. Their roles include serving as resources for teammates who may already suffer from AOD problems. An equally important role is as a prevention specialist in helping to arrange presentations on issues that are pertinent to a particular team. In order for this model to run effectively, certain

Abstract:

As children reach adolescence, peer groups gain special power to influence their behavior, and young people tend to adapt their behavior to fit group norms. When students engage in bullying, alcohol and drug abuse, and other behavior, those in their peer group are more likely to engage in those behaviors as well. The authors sought to evaluate whether having students engage in peer learning through interdependent cooperative groups might disrupt this tendency. Middle school teachers were trained in using peer learning to teach their regular curriculum, and after one year, students showed more

ABSTRACT Alcohol and drug abuse and addiction among medical students have been reported extensively. This is an important topic because substance abuse can lead to impairment, which affects the well-being of many, including medical students, and because it compromises physician competency. Education and clinical training regarding substance use disorders (SUDS) has been severely neglected, especially in relation to their incidence, not only among health professionals but also among patients. Students know little about SUDS and little regarding identifying a colleague in trouble. This article p
