Reports an error in "Measurement invariance and other psychometric properties of the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP-2R) across racial groups in adults experiencing homelessness and alcohol use disorder" by Silvi C. Goldstein, Nichea S. Spillane, Marie C. Tate, Lonnie A. Nelson and Susan E. Collins (Psychology of Addictive Behaviors, 2023[Mar], Vol 37[2], 199-208). The sample sizes in the first sentence of the Method section in the abstract now appear as (N = 493; NAI = 125, Black = 205, and White = 163). All versions of this article have been corrected. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2022-58798-001.) Objective: People experiencing homelessness are disproportionately impacted by alcohol-related harm. Racially minoritized groups are disproportionately represented in the homeless population and are likewise disproportionately impacted by alcohol-related harm. Most alcohol outcome measures have not been adequately psychometrically studied in this marginalized population and across racial groups. This study documents psychometric properties, including measurement invariance, reliability, and convergent validity, of a measure of alcohol-related harm, the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP-2R), across Black, North American Indigenous (NAI), and White adults experiencing homelessness and alcohol use disorder (AUD).

Method: Adults experiencing homelessness and AUD who had participated in one of two randomized controlled trials of harm-reduction treatment (N = 493; NAI = 125, Black = 205, and White = 163) were included in this psychometric study of the 15-item SIP-2R.

Results: Multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (MGCFA) indicated that a model comprising one general alcohol-related harm factor overarching five factors, showed close fit and partial scalar invariance, χ²(329, N = 493) = 624.902, p < .001, comparative fit index (CFI) = .966, root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA) = .074, 90% CI [.066, .083], standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) = .063, confirming acceptable measurement equivalence across racial groups. The SIP-2R showed internal consistency (α = .94, ω = .95) and convergent validity, that is, positive correlation between the total SIP-2R score and the number of drinks consumed the heaviest drinking day, ρ(490) = .30, p < .001.

Conclusion: This study provided support for the internal consistency, convergent validity, and cross-group measurement equivalence of the SIP-2R for NAI, Black, and White adults experiencing homelessness with AUD. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

Objective: Early pubertal timing is a risk factor for substance use during adolescence. Fewer studies investigated whether early pubertal timing continues to predict substance use in late adolescence and adulthood, suggesting that long-term effects of pubertal timing vary across substances and by biological sex. Finally, existing studies on pubertal timing and substance use in adulthood involved predominantly White samples. Thus, this longitudinal study examined the concurrent and long-term effects of pubertal timing on alcohol, cigarette, and cannabis use together with sex differences in predominantly Black youth from the United States.

Method: The sample included 603 youth (52% male, 80% Black) who were interviewed in early adolescence (mean age: 13.2), late adolescence (mean age: 17.6), and young adulthood (mean age: 27.7). During early adolescence, youth self-reported their physical maturation based on Tanner scores, which were adjusted for age and used as indicators of pubertal timing. Youth self-reported their substance use at each time point.

Results: Early pubertal timing was associated with higher odds of alcohol use during early adolescence but did not predict alcohol use during late adolescence or adulthood. While early pubertal timing did not predict cigarette use at any time point, early pubertal timing predicted greater odds for cannabis use during early adolescence and higher rates of cannabis use in adulthood. Moreover, early pubertal timing predicted greater risk for couse of alcohol, cigarettes, and cannabis in adulthood. No effects differed by sex.

Conclusions: These findings suggest that links between pubertal timing and substance use vary across substances and developmental periods. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

[Correction Notice: An Erratum for this article was reported in Vol 38(7) of Psychology of Addictive Behaviors (see record 2025-40494-001). In Table 1, the Past 30-day cannabis use row now appears as Past 30-day cannabis only use; the Past 30-day tobacco use row now appears as Any past 30-day tobacco use. The Total sample at prepregnancy sample of 344 (50.14%) now appears as 342 (49.85%). Figure 3 also has been updated. All versions of this article have been corrected.] Objective: Co-use of tobacco and cannabis may be prevalent in pregnancy, potentially leading to additional adverse health outcomes. Utilizing a national sample of women followed prospectively before, during, and after pregnancy, this study tested whether prepregnancy co-use of tobacco and cannabis (vs. tobacco-only use and cannabis-only use) was associated with greater likelihood of continuing to use tobacco and/or cannabis during pregnancy and postpartum.

Method: Data were drawn from Waves 1-5 (2013-2019) of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study. Prepregnancy, pregnancy, and postpartum data were captured and stacked over three intervals (Waves 1-3, 2-4, and 3-5). Participants were N = 686 U.S. women (72% White, 46% age 25-34) who were currently pregnant during the middle wave of an interval. Rates of tobacco-only use, cannabis-only use, and tobacco and cannabis co-use at all three time points were examined.

Results: Generalized estimating equation models demonstrated that pregnant women who reported prepregnancy tobacco and cannabis co-use (vs. tobacco-only or cannabis-only use) were more likely to continue to use tobacco and/or cannabis during pregnancy and relapse in postpartum (p < .05). Among women who endorsed prepregnancy co-use and continued to use tobacco and/or cannabis in pregnancy, about half transitioned to tobacco-only use (45.16%).

Conclusions: Findings underscore the need for further clinical and empirical focus on dynamic patterns of use/co-use of tobacco and cannabis across the perinatal period, including cessation interventions to reduce tobacco and cannabis use in pregnancy and protect against relapse in postpartum.

Objective: The rising prevalence of daily cannabis use among older adolescents and young adults in the United States has significant public health implications. As a result, more individuals may be seeking or in need of treatment for adverse outcomes (e.g., cannabis use disorder) arising from excessive cannabis use. Our objective was to explore the potential of self-reported motives for cannabis use as a foundation for developing adaptive interventions tailored to reduce cannabis consumption over time or in certain circumstances. We aimed to understand how transitions in these motives, which can be collected with varying frequencies (yearly, monthly, daily), predict the frequency and adverse outcomes of cannabis use.

Method: We conducted secondary analyses on data collected at different frequencies from four studies: the Medical Cannabis Certification Cohort Study (n = 801, biannually), the Cannabis, Health, and Young Adults Project (n = 359, annually), the Monitoring the Future Panel Study (n = 7,851, biennially), and the Text Messaging Study (n = 87, daily). These studies collected time-varying motives for cannabis use and distal measures of cannabis use from adolescents, young adults, and adults. We applied latent transition analysis with random intercepts to analyze the data.

Results: We identified the types of transitions in latent motive classes that are predictive of adverse outcomes in the future, specifically transitions into or staying in classes characterized by multiple motives.

Conclusions: The identification of such transitions has direct implications for the development of adaptive interventions designed to prevent adverse health outcomes related to cannabis use. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

Objective: Rates of problematic cannabis use among young adults are high and increasing. Craving for cannabis varies throughout the day and is an important risk factor for cannabis use, yet no studies to date have tested interventions offered at the moment craving is experienced in the natural environment.

Method: This study used an efficient and innovative microrandomized trial design to test two distinct types of coping messages (mindfulness strategy vs. distraction strategy) offering brief coping strategies when moderate to severe craving was reported via ecological momentary assessment (EMA).

Results: Young adults who regularly use cannabis (N = 53) were readily engaged in this 4-week intervention, and EMA completion was high throughout, demonstrating excellent feasibility of this approach. However, results indicated that coping messages did not reduce craving at the next EMA relative to control (thank you) messages, with no significant change in efficacy over time. Furthermore, exploratory analyses found that neither mindfulness nor distraction resulted in reduced craving relative to the control message.

Conclusions: Despite this outcome, this method of testing digital interventions targeting momentary risks for substance use such as craving holds promise for rapidly and efficiently screening a wide variety of intervention strategies for inclusion in future just-in-time adaptive interventions.

Objective: Alcohol misuse is common among women who have experienced sexual violence and is often attributed to the self-medication model of alcohol use to alleviate posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Despite the proximal theorized role of PTSD symptoms, less attention has been given to daily associations between PTSD symptoms, trauma-related drinking to cope (TRD) motives, and ensuing alcohol use by survivors. Moreover, despite indications that poor sleep impacts affective functioning and may exacerbate daily PTSD symptoms, the role of sleep duration and quality in drinking to cope with PTSD symptoms is not well understood. This study examined an integrated model testing whether shorter sleep duration and poorer sleep quality predict greater daily PTSD symptoms and, in turn, greater alcohol use later that day through TRD motives.

Method: Participants were 82 cisgender women (M_age = 22.8, 73.2% White, 13.4% Hispanic/Latina, 56.1% heterosexual, 30.5% bisexual) who had experienced sexual violence. Participants completed ecological momentary assessment measures and wore actigraphs for 3 weeks.

Results: Contrary to hypotheses, shorter-than-usual sleep duration did not predict greater alcohol use quantity via daily PTSD symptoms and TRD motives. However, poorer-than-usual sleep quality predicted greater PTSD symptoms that day, which in turn predicted greater same-day TRD motives.

Conclusions: Findings underscore the importance of sleep quality in heightened PTSD symptoms but suggest survivors did not drink more to alleviate trauma-related distress. Future research should examine other drinking motives among survivors to inform proximal interventions to prevent alcohol misuse. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).

Objective: Building upon prior research, the present study tested coping motives as a mediator of relations between both negative urgency and internalizing symptoms (depression, anxiety, and stress), and alcohol-related consequences using longitudinal data. We also tested negative urgency as a moderator of prospective relations between specific internalizing symptoms and alcohol-related consequences.

Method: The study utilized data from a longitudinal study of young adults (N = 448; M_age = 22.27, SD = 1.25). Participants (56.5% male) were evaluated at baseline and at 12-month and 24-month follow-ups. Mood, impulsivity, coping motives, and alcohol consequences were assessed at baseline, and motives and consequences were assessed at follow-ups.

Results: Prospective indirect effects of internalizing symptoms and negative urgency on alcohol consequences through coping motives were not observed. However, cross-sectional post hoc analyses indicated that higher levels of internalizing and negative urgency were indirectly associated with greater alcohol consequences through coping motives, with similar patterns observed for depression, anxiety, and stress. Although support was found for mediated effects in the cross-sectional model, no evidence was found for negative urgency moderating the impact of internalizing, stress, anxiety, or depression on alcohol consequences in either cross-sectional or longitudinal models.

Conclusion: Findings provide cross-sectional but not longitudinal support for coping motives as a potential mechanism through which a broad range of internalizing symptoms are associated with alcohol consequences. Findings did not support interactions between negative urgency and internalizing symptoms. The results highlight the need for further exploration of mediated effects using ecological momentary assessments. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
