CHAPTER 2 OXFORD HANDBOOK – HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES ON
SUBSTANCE USE AND SUDS

PATTERNS OF SUBSTANCE USE
- 4 general classes of drugs subject to abuse potential: narcotics, general depressants,
stimulants and hallucinogens
- DSM 5 describes 11 drug classes: alcohol, amphetamines, caffeine, cannabis, cocaine,
hallucinogens, inhalants, opiates (heroine, morphine, codeine), phencyclidine (angel
dust PCP), sedatives/hypnotics/anxiolytics, and “other”
- drugs exert their psychoactive effects mainly in the CNS
- substances can be eaten, chewed, drunk, smoked, snorted or injected
- sometimes different routes of administration involve different chemical preparations
- fastest absorption into brain is via lungs, absorption is slow via bloodstream from
stomach and small intestine
- a problematic frequency/quantity level of use varies by professionals and by public
according to culture
- but pattern of use is more important than Q/F estimates
- many people use 2 or more psychoactive substances in combination  simultaneous
polydrug use (SPU) (usually intentional to produce additive or interactive effects)
- most common combination is alcohol with tobacco
- most common illegal combination is alcohol and marijuana
- SPU is more common among adolescents and young adults
- simultaneous use of alcohol and marijuana (alcohol with other drugs too) is
associated with increased social problems
- many deaths related to alcohol/heroin overdose/oxycodone involve use of other
substances

CULTURAL VARIATION
- cultural norms are reflected in attitudes towards substance use
- the U.S. has the highest levels of both legal and illegal substance use
- individual predictors of use (high SES and male gender) are consistent across most
cultures
- regional and geographic variation in drug availability
- biological differences in acute drug effects

HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Mental disorders
- syndromal diagnosis: a group of co-occurring signs and symptoms represent a
particular disease state, epitomized today
- mental disorders: clinically significant behavioral or psychological syndromes that are
associated with distress and impairment, not a reaction to an event but a
manifestation of some underlying dysfunction
- harmful dysfunction: failure of internal mechanism to perform its naturally selected
evolutionary function

,Substance problems
- discovery of the concept of addiction, and a disease called intemperance and
inebriety (for alcohol)
- Jellinek’s 4 phases of alcoholism:
o pre-alcoholic: socially motivated, relief drinking
o prodromal: social drinking becomes escape from tensions and problems, and
pathological aspects like drinking large amounts, blackouts, shame about
drinking, hangovers etc.
o crucial: some capacity of self-control, addictive drinking, loss of control,
morning drinking, rationalizing drinking, unsuccessful rules to stop drinking,
antisocial behavior, losses in family, friends and work
o chronic: self-control is destroyed, deterioration and death
- Jellinek’s subtypes:
o alpha alcoholism: problem drinking
o beta alcoholism: pathophysiologic effects of drinking without strong
dependence
o gamma alcoholism: classic alcoholism that follows the previous four phases
o delta alcoholism: similar to gamma but without devastating loss of control in
crucial and chronic phases
o epsilon alcoholism: periodic binge drinking

CRITERIA
- DSM1: alcoholism
- DSM2: alcohol and other drug problems under personality disorders
o not empirically validated
- Alcohol dependence syndrome (ADS): compulsive use patterns and incentive salience
alcohol use, with physiological features of tolerance and withdrawal
o 7 dimensions  tolerance, withdrawal, use to avoid withdrawal, subjective
compulsion to use, salience of use in the person’s life, stereotyped use
patterns, rapid reinstatement of frank addiction upon return to use after a
period of abstinence
- DSM3: term “alcoholism” is dropped, separate SUDs category instead of personality
disorder, core features of ADS
- DSM3-R: substance abuse defined as hazardous use or continued use despite social
consequences, substance dependence required physiologic features
o DSM3 and DSM3-R imply that abuse than milder than dependence
- 2 broad subtypes of people with alcohol dependence (two models):
o first subtype:
 no more than moderate heritability, gradual onset in maturity,
absence of gross character pathology, relatively contained
consequences, moderately abusive drinking pattern, equally common
between genders
o second subtype:
 high heritability, early onset, association with antisocial traits, severely
under controlled drinking, severe psychosocial consequences, male
gender dominance

, o subtype differences based in the personality constructs  reward
dependence and novelty seeking (higher in type II) and harm avoidance
(higher in type I)
o subtypes are illustrative prototypes and most people don’t fit into these and
show a mixture of clinical features

CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES ON SUD
- universalistic approach: focuses on common elements across cultures (e.g. ADS)
o advantage of cross-cultural comparisons
o a common measure can be used across cultures
- relativistic approach: emphasizes influence of culture on the manifestation and
content of illness & impact of culture in defining and shaping illness
- problems with cross cultural applicability:
o tolerance has various meanings in different cultures
o dependence criteria based on causal attribution of problems not relevant in
some cultures
o different threshold to determine the present of problematic substance use
- recommendation: cross-cultural pilot testing to maximize cross-cultural applicability
and validity
- globalization may decrease cross-cultural variation in substance use patterns


CURRENT DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS
- ICD 10 had two types: substance dependence and harmful use  ICD 11 got updated
- DSM4: substance abuse and substance dependence mutually exclusive criterion sets
o dependence defined by either presence of tolerance or withdrawal
o limitations:
 no accepted understanding of substance abuse
 substance abuse and dependence overlap in concept
 substance abuse does not meet standard for being a mental disorder
 abuse and dependence are not empirically distinct
 factor analyses indicate a single dimension of substance problems
- DSM5: single SUD for each drug class, using a combined criterion set
o criterion set includes both dependence and abuse symptoms (except legal
problems which was dropped because it’s culturally bound), and craving was
added
o threshold is 2/11 symptoms
 criticism that this is far too lenient
o presence of 4/5 symptoms out of 11 is “moderate SUD”, 6 or more is “severe
SUD”
o it is important to consider noncriterion risk factors too

MODERN UNDERSTANDING OF SUBSTANCE DEPENDENCE
- repeated substance use produces neuroadaptations in the brain that hijack the
brain’s reward system and incentive salience, leading to strong drug craving
- sensitized incentive salience systems can produce strong motivation drive even if
long-term abstinence is achieved, which explains high relapse rates
