    (2020) RADCLIFFE, Polly; CANFIELD, Martha; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas; FINCH, Emily; SEGURA, Lidia; TORRENS, Marta; GILCHRIST, Gail
    Introduction: Although alcohol is widely used concurrently with illicit drugs, the role of alcohol in recovery from and relapse to drug use is under-researched. This study investigates drinking patterns and factors associated with harmful drinking among men receiving community treatment for heroin and/or cocaine use. Methods: Secondary analysis of 3 cross-sectional studies in England (n = 153), Brazil (n = 149) and Spain (n = 131) was conducted. Sociodemographic, alcohol consumption (AUDIT), substance use, treatment characteristics, and physical health were assessed. Logistic regression determined factors associated with harmful drinking. Results: 41% of men receiving heroin and/or cocaine treatment met criteria for harmful drinking. Of this, 28% were not receiving treatment for alcohol. Factors identified with harmful drinking among those who were not receiving treatment for alcohol use were as follows: homeless, unemployment/receiving benefits, poly drug use, history of injecting drug(s), hepatitis C seropositive, and receiving treatment for heroin use with/without treatment for cocaine use. Participants from England who met criteria for harmful drinking were more likely to report not receiving treatment for alcohol use than those from Brazil and Spain. Discussion: Findings show that harmful drinking is common among men in treatment for drug use and remains neglected by the services.

    Accounting for intimate partner violence perpetration. A cross-cultural comparison of English and Brazilian male substance users' explanations
    (2017) RADCLIFFE, Polly; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas; LEA, Susan; FIGUEIREDO, Wagner dos Santos; GILCHRIST, Gail
    Introduction and AimsThis paper describes how substance use features in the accounts of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetrators in treatment in England and Brazil. The aim of the research was to better understand cross cultural constructions of IPV perpetration amongst men in treatment for substance use. Design and MethodsSemi-structured interviews were conducted with 40 men in community substance use treatment in Sao Paolo, Brazil and London and the South East of England who had reported IPV perpetration in a questionnaire survey. A thematic, narrative analysis was carried out of men's explanations for IPV perpetration. FindingsThree types of narratives were distinguished: (i) disputes, centred on substance use, that escalate to IPV perpetration; (ii) IPV perpetration that is explained by uncharacteristic loss of control, as a result of intoxication; and (iii) IPV perpetration provoked by a perceived betrayal, in which substance use is incidental. In all types of accounts hegemonic principles of male and female roles and behaviour provided a context for and make IPV perpetration explicable. Discussion and ConclusionsSubstance use and IPV are culturally constructed and contextually defined. Understanding the meaning-making of substance using IPV perpetrators has implications for the treatment of both substance abuse and IPV.

    Controlling behaviours and technology-facilitated abuse perpetrated by men receiving substance use treatment in England and Brazil: Prevalence and risk factors
    (2017) GILCHRIST, Gail; CANFIELD, Martha; RADCLIFFE, Polly; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas
    Introduction and AimsControlling behaviours are highly prevalent forms of non-physical intimate partner violence (IPV). The prevalence of perpetrating controlling behaviours and technology-facilitated abuse (TFA) was compared by men receiving substance use treatment in England (n=223) and Brazil (n=280). Factors associated with perpetrating these behaviours towards their current/most recent partner and their association with other types of IPV were explored. Design and MethodsSecondary analysis from two cross-sectional studies was performed. Data on socio-demographic characteristics, infidelity, IPV perpetration and victimisation, adverse childhood experiences (ACE), attitudes towards gender relations and roles, substance use, depressive symptoms and anger expression were collected. ResultsSixty-four percent (143/223) and 33% (73/223) of participants in England and 65% (184/280) and 20% (57/280) in Brazil reported controlling behaviours and TFA, respectively, during their current/most recent relationship. Excluding IPV victimisation from the multivariate models; perpetrating controlling behaviours was associated with a higher number of ACE, higher anger expression (England) and severe physical IPV perpetration (Brazil), and perpetrating TFA was associated with younger age. Including both IPV victimisation and perpetration in the multivariate models; perpetrating controlling behaviour was associated with experiencing a higher number of ACE, higher anger expression (England), emotional IPV victimisation (England) and experiencing controlling behaviour from a partner (England). The perpetration of TFA was associated with younger age and experiencing TFA from a partner. ConclusionsTechnological progress provides opportunities for perpetrators to control and abuse their partners. Controlling behaviours and TFA should be addressed to reduce IPV perpetration by males in substance use treatment. [Gilchrist G, Canfield M,Radcliffe P, d'Oliveira AFPL.

    The prevalence and factors associated with ever perpetrating intimate partner violence by men receiving substance use treatment in Brazil and England: A cross-cultural comparison
    (2017) GILCHRIST, Gail; RADCLIFFE, Polly; NOTO, Ana Regina; D'OLIVEIRA, Ana Flavia Pires Lucas
    Introduction and AimsIntimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration is common among men who use substances. Substance use is a contributing factor for IPV perpetration. This cross-sectional study determined lifetime prevalence and factors associated with ever perpetrating IPV by men receiving substance use treatment in Brazil (n=281) and England (n=223). Design and MethodsIPV, adverse childhood experiences, attitudes towards gender relations and roles, current health state, substance use, depressive symptoms and anger expression were assessed. Logistic regression determined factors associated with ever perpetrating any (emotional, physical and/or sexual) IPV. Multinomial logistic regression determined factors associated with ever perpetrating different types of IPV. Results74.6% (373/500) reported ever perpetrating IPV: 16.5% (82/498) emotional IPV only, 46.4% (231/498) physical IPV (with/without emotional IPV) and 11.6% (58/498) sexual IPV (with/without emotional and/or physical IPV). Higher anger expression, higher depressive symptoms, fighting physically with another man in the past year (Brazil only), experiencing a greater number of adverse childhood experiences and a higher hazardous drinking score (England only) predicted ever perpetrating IPV. Compared to never perpetrating any IPV, anger expression was associated with emotional and physical IPV perpetration; fighting physically with another man in the past year was associated with physical IPV perpetration and experiencing a greater number of adverse childhood experiences and a higher hazardous drinking score were associated with both physical and sexual IPV perpetration. Discussion and ConclusionsIntegrated interventions that address IPV and substance use delivered in substance use treatment could improve outcomes for perpetrators and victims.[Gilchrist G, Radcliffe P, Noto AR, d'Oliveira AFPL.
