Journal ArticleDOI
Developmentally inspired drug prevention: middle school outcomes in a school-based randomized prevention trial.
C. Debra M. Furr-Holden,Nicholas S. Ialongo,James C. Anthony,Hanno Petras,Sheppard G. Kellam +4 more
TL;DR: This study adds new evidence on intervention-associated reduced risk of starting illegal drug use to the context of 'gateway' models, and the null evidence on marijuana is intriguing and merits attention in future investigations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Past 15-year trends in adolescent marijuana use: Differences by race/ethnicity and sex.
Renee M. Johnson,Brian J. Fairman,Tamika D. Gilreath,Ziming Xuan,Emily F. Rothman,Taylor Parnham,C. Debra M. Furr-Holden +6 more
TL;DR: Despite considerable changes in state marijuana policies over the past 15 years, marijuana use among high school students has largely declined, and results indicate that male-female differences in marijuana use decreased over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time tracking of neighborhood surroundings and mood in urban drug misusers: application of a new method to study behavior in its geographical context.
David H. Epstein,Matthew Tyburski,Ian M. Craig,Karran A. Phillips,Michelle L. Jobes,Massoud Vahabzadeh,Mustapha Mezghanni,Jia-Ling Lin,C. Debra M. Furr-Holden,Kenzie L. Preston +9 more
TL;DR: The results support the feasibility of GMA methodology and challenge some assumptions about how ostensibly stressful environments are associated with lived experience and how such environments ultimately impair health.
Journal ArticleDOI
The growth of neighborhood disorder and marijuana use among urban adolescents: a case for policy and environmental interventions.
C. Debra M. Furr-Holden,Myong Hwa Lee,Adam J. Milam,Renee M. Johnson,Kwang Sig Lee,Nicholas S. Ialongo +5 more
TL;DR: A salient and malleable neighborhood characteristic, abandoned housing, which predicted elevated risk for young-adult marijuana use was identified, which supports environmental strategies that target abandoned buildings as a means to improve health and health behaviors for community residents, particularly young- adult substance use.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Finding Significant Stress Episodes in a Discontinuous Time Series of Rapidly Varying Mobile Sensor Data
Hillol Sarker,Matthew Tyburski,Mahbubur Rahman,Karen Hovsepian,Moushumi Sharmin,David H. Epstein,Kenzie L. Preston,C. Debra M. Furr-Holden,Adam J. Milam,Inbal Nahum-Shani,Mustafa al'Absi,Santosh Kumar +11 more
TL;DR: A time series pattern mining method to detect significant stress episodes in a time series of discontinuous and rapidly varying stress data is proposed and a model to predict stressful episodes is developed.
