Rehab News:Grant awarded to substance abuse researcher
A researcher who studies the links between children's mental health problems and nicotine, drug and alcohol abuse in later life has been awarded a prestigious grant to further her work.
Naomi Marmorstein, associate professor of psychology at Rutgers-Camden, has been granted $649,503 (£327,285) by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to continue her research into the ways in which children's anxiety and depression may be linked with substance abuse in adulthood.
The expert commented: "Children can show symptoms of depression and anxiety at very young ages, and some youths smoke, drink and use drugs as well.
"A better understanding of the associations between these problems will help us more effectively prevent and treat them. If we can get youth on a trajectory of healthy emotional and behavioural development, they are at reduced risk for psychiatric and substance abuse problems as adults," she claimed.
Ms Marmorstein said that researchers have long recognised the so-called 'self-medication' model of substance abuse, whereby some people with depression or anxiety drink alcohol to cope with their feelings.
"However, there is also some evidence that heavy substance use may predict internalising disorders, rather than the other way around," she added.
