“…Our results point to the importance of this cascade of processes, some of which oppose each other, in the successful attainment of desired reward. These results support the work of Carver and White (1994), which inspired the search for multiple BAS processes, but challenge all recent psychometric attempts to measure rRST with a single unidimensional BAS factor (Jackson, 2009;Reuter, Cooper, Smillie, Markett, & Montag, 2015;Smederevac, Mitrovic, Colovic, & Nikolasevic, 2014) -as we showed, impulsivity in particular stands apart from the other BAS factors.…”

“…However, a number of revised RST questionnaires for use with adults have been developed over recent years (Jackson, 2009;Reuter, Cooper, Smillie, Markett, & Montag, 2015;Smederevac, Mitrovic, Colovic, & Nikolasevic, 2014). As a summary and comparison of all RST questionnaires has already been given by , only the most germane aspects of them as they relate to this article are discussed.…”

“…Secondly, the BIS scale is problematic, with many of the items suffering from a lack of face validity (e.g., 'Prefer projects to prove my ability'; 'Want to do well compared with others', 'Aim better than peers') -conceptually, such 'BIS' items would be better aligned with the BAS, and in fact are correlated with BAS measures from other RST questionnaires (Krupic, Krizanic, Rucevic, Gracanin, & Corr, 2015;see Table 2 from Jackson, 2009;this matter is discussed further in .…”

“…These comparisons demonstrate the excessive difficulties the current sample has in emotion regulation when beginning treatment. Also, when compared to a sample of University undergraduate students and supervisors, the current sample only shows a difference in scores on the FFFS scale (Jackson, 2009) The initial correlations (see Table 5b) suggest a relationship between PTSS and all other research variables, except the BIS subscale of rRST. Furthermore, no focal variable, except PTSS, correlated independently with retention.…”

“…Such highly threatening situations are frequent in military engagement moreso than in civilian traumatic situations, where the primary traumas are more likely to be witnessing an injury or death, involvement in a fire or natural disaster, and life-threatening accidents (Creamer, Burgess, & McFarlane, 2001). Furthermore, the "fight" response is viewed to be related to a lower level of fear and higher level of aggression (Jackson, 2009), as is required in military action and less likely to be related to civilian traumas.…”

Posttraumatic stress disorder in a therapeutic community for substance use disorders: an evaluation of the influence

The purpose of this body of research is twofold. First, to investigate posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a sample of adults undergoing substance use disorder (SUD) treatment in a therapeutic community (TC) and, second, to apply major psychological theories to help understand the nature of this comorbidity in ways that inform treatment. The focal theories of this research are: emotion dysregulation (Gratz & Roemer, 2004), and revised Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (rRST; Corr, 2008;Gray & McNaughton, 2000). Rash Impulsiveness will be included as an important dimension of rRST that has been consistently linked to substance misuse. Chapter 1 presents an overview of research related to the thesis as a whole. In Chapter .72, p < .00). Furthermore, the correlations between PTSS and two of the facets of rRST, BAS and fight-flight-freeze sensitivity (FFFS), were significantly correlated (r = -.23 and .49, p < .01, respectively). BAS sensitivity was shown to negatively correlate with PTSS, indicating that lower BAS sensitivity related to higher PTS severity. No relationship was found between the Behavioural Inhibition System (BIS) and PTSS. Finally, Rash Impulsivity significantly correlated with PTSS at intake, r = .50, p < .00. Contrary to hypotheses, and previous research, Rash Impulsivity did not significantly correlate with retention. Theoretical mechanisms linking PTSS and substance misuse were investigated further, with tests of theoretical models in which individual difference factors (facets of the rRST) were related to retention and outcomes from treatment, and facets of emotional dysregulation were tested as mediators of this relationship. Upon investigation through linear regression, no suitable variable was found the mediate the relationship between PTSS and retention.iii The final moderated mediated model, therefore, was not suitable for this population. Limited moderation, though, occurred between the two facets of rRST and retention. Specifically, investigation of the simple slopes showed that FFFS and Rash Impulsivity both moderate the relationship between PTSD and retention at high (+1 SD) and mean scores. These findings indicate that high levels of both facets do interact with PTSD to negatively influence treatment retention.The null findings for both mediation and the moderated mediation model contradict previous research, and may be due to homogeneity in scores across the population. Overall, some implications for treatment can be extrapolated. First, PTSD is highly prevalent in the TC population, and should be assessed using psychometrically valid measures, such as the PCL-C, and addressed in treatment. Second, treatment for SUD does not exacerbate PTSD; on the contrary, PTSS significantly decreased during TC treatment. Finally, as there is solid theoretical support to suggest an influence of emotion dysregulation and Rash Impulsiveness on retention and outcomes, more research needs to be conducted on the role of these two constructs with the intent of creating a better suited rehabi...
