| | CHAPTER 2. A CONCEPTUAL MODEL FOR MEASURING SUBSTANCE MISUSE AND ABUSE |
| | A complication of measuring substance use prevalence is the problem of multiple use, what in the model is called "overlap." One person may use four or five psychoactive substances, such as alcohol, marijuana, cigarettes, over-the-counter diet pills, and prescribed antianxiety drugs. | | | It is well known that this generation was exposed to an unprecedented array of psychoactive substances, both during the youth drug culture of the 1960s and 1970s, and subsequently to an unprecedented array of psychoactive medications available by prescription and over the counter. | | | Distinguishing appropriate and health-enhancing drug use from debilitating overuse is difficult but essential to measure if the quality of later life is to be preserved in the baby boom and future generations. |

| | Substance appearance was noted whenever substances or related paraphernalia (references to brands of alcohol, tobacco, or over-the-counter medicines, generic bar or cocktail signs, ashtrays, syringes, and the like) were seen, absent any indication of use. | | | The coding process was similar in many respects to that used for movies, as substances of interest were identical and many of the variables overlapped, at least in broad conceptual terms. | | | Therefore, the frequency of substance appearance was described for all 5-minute intervals of the movies, a procedure that is typical of other content analyses identified in Appendix B. |

| | On the other hand, the view that there is an "ethics industry" that is greedy and counter-productive (in terms of ethics) is quite accurate. | | | Considerations of efficacy are part of the rhetoric of public-sector ethics but there is little evidence of it in either the academic or government literature. | | | They conclude even further that appearance ethics is pernicious because it gives the illusion of control and precision based on ever more constricting rules and regulations that offer simplicity at the expense of substance. |

| | Inventor of the Week: Archive |
| | Nuclear physicist Hans Geiger, whose surname is known the world over for his invention of the radioactivity measuring device known as the Geiger counter, was born Johannes Wilhelm Geiger in Neustadt-an-der-Haardt, Germany, on September 30, 1882. | | | Whenever the counter nears a radioactive substance, the gas becomes ionized, and the ionized gas particles are then able to carry the current in a complete circuit, from one end to the other. | | | Geiger was also involved in a number of experiments that would lead to Rutherfords breakthrough theory of the atom, which declared that the nucleus occupies a very small volume at the center of every atom. |
