Abstract:
Nicotine titration was studied in cigarette smokers not interested in cutting down or quitting smoking. Forty smokers were classified as high nicotine dependent (n=20) and low nicotine dependent (n=20) using a validated tolerance questionnaire. Subjects were randomized into baseline (n=10) or nicotine fade conditions (n=10) within their dependency group. Subjects in the baseline conditions smoked their preferred brand of cigarette throughout the experiment. Smokers in the fade conditions switched to a reduced nicotine brand in the latter half of the procedure. Multiple in vivo and in vitro m

Abstract:
This study explores how the representation of the drug-addict in Hollywood cinema has changed due to governmental and studio policy change, social shifts of opinion, and economic structure. This discussion and exploration primarily focuses upon narrative Hollywood film as this industry has a long and varied history of addiction films. While there have been a variety of shifts in the depiction of drug-addiction due to social changes and industry regulation, perhaps at no other time in cinema history has the culmination of economics, politics, and independent art had such a large impact on the d

There is a vast amount of research on the effects of prenatal substance abuse and the treatment of its unfortunate victims. While it is recognized that the answer to the problem of prenatal substance abuse is abstinence from drug and alcohol use during pregnancy, so far this has been an unattainable goal. Abstinence can only be achieved if the programs for addicted pregnant women can successfully engage them and adequately meet their treatment and service needs.

Abstract:
Studien syftar till att få en förståelse för hur socialsekreterare uppmärksammar samsjuklighet hos individer som söker hjälp för beroende. Vidare undersöks hur socialsekreterare upplever mötet med individer som har beroende och som har psykisk ohälsa. Syftet är även att undersöka socialsekreterares upplevelser om vilka faktorer som kan påverka arbetet med samsjuklighet.

Abstract:
Det här kandidatarbetet handlar om hur åskådares identifiering med karaktärer i tv-serier kan vara en bidragande faktor till tv-serieberoende. Det finns ingen tidigare forskning kring denna typ av beroende, men paralleller går att dra till datorspels-beroende. Alltfler studier tyder dock på att beroendet av tv-serier ökar, och faktorerna till det är många. Identifiering med karaktärer är en av dem, då det finns flera identifieringstyper och band att skapa till en karaktär.För att se om det fanns ett samband mellan identifiering och tv-serieberoende, gjordes ett fokusgruppsamtal med fyra mediet
