This research makes a significant contribution by examining the factors unique to the AOD sector in Australia, as well as the factors that influence the effectiveness of supervision. This study explores pertinent issues in clinical supervision that particular to an AOD context.
This project examines the relationship between income disparity and the rates of key alcohol-caused harms at a local-area level in Australia. It has the potential to significantly extend the understanding of geographic patterns in the extent and nature of alcohol-caused harm, and how this relates to social and contextual factors evident at the local level.
There is widespread concern that the AOD sector faces significant difficulties in recruiting and retaining qualified staff to keep pace with the increasing demand for treatment services. This project examines the relationship between work practices and other factors that impact on job satisfaction, reward, burnout, recruitment, retention, and turnover of frontline AOD workers.
This project aims to determine the effectiveness of Individual Feedback and Group Feedback in improving JMOs recording, assessment and management of risky alcohol use and tobacco smoking. It uses a crossover trial conducted at two hospitals over two years.
This study complements the limited body of knowledge available in Australia on the impact of alcohol and licit-substance abuse in police and emergency services as well as available treatment and support services. The study researched and documented models of treatment and rehabilitation services for police and other emergency services personnel with an identified alcohol or licit drug problem. The project reviewed the provision of support services for this group, looking particularly at critical incident debriefing, and the issue of self-medication.
This project aims to determine change in consumption over time, and to identify the factors that affect levels and changes of consumption over time, and differences between age groups, using secondary analysis of data taken from the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women’s Health; a population-based survey that has been examining the health and well-being of more than 40,000 Australian women since 1996.
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the cost-effectiveness of interventions designed to reduce the burden of harm associated with alcohol misuse in Australia.
This project aims to facilitate the participation of a large group of consumers from all over Australia (including remote and rural areas) to learn to self-regulate their alcohol consumption and manage their co-occurring depression/anxiety.
One of the ways for government to influence consumption of alcohol is via pricing, and a major influence in this area is taxation. The aim of this project is to provide comprehensive data on the effects of current indirect taxation on low-strength alcoholic beverages.
In the ten years 1992 to 2001, it was reported that approximately 31,000 Australians died from alcohol-related disease and injury. Harm from excessive alcohol use consumes expensive health care resources, contributes to lost productivity, and results in costs due to road accidents and legal actions. Early screening and intervention, particularly by GPs, has significant potential to prevent alcohol-related health and social problems.
