“…The finding that the mean became almost constant after the first week and the finding that the variance decreased for each day going back in time both seem to support such a hypothesis. Our results are also consistent with a recent study showing that 30-day TLFB reports of alcohol consumption were more highly correlated with 14-day reports than with 7-day reports (Fiellin, McGinnis, Maisto, Justice, & Bryant, 2013). …”

The timeline follow-back (TLFB) interview was adopted to collect retrospective data on daily substance use and violence from 598 youth seeking care in an urban Emergency Department in Flint, Michigan during 2009–2011. Generalized linear mixed models with flexible smooth functions of time were employed to characterize the change in risk behaviors as a function of the length of recall period. Our results suggest that the 1-week recall period may be more effective for capturing atypical or variable patterns of risk behaviors, whereas a recall period longer than 2 weeks may result in a more stable estimation of a typical pattern.

“…Individuals were presented with a calendar on which they write events, which then serve as memory prompts for estimating the days during which they consumed alcohol. The TLFB has been deemed a reliable measure of alcohol consumption with excellent temporal stability (Carey, Carey, Maisto, & Henson, 2004; Sobell, Sobell, Leo, & Cancilla, 1988) and has been used as a measure of alcohol consumption among PLWHA (Fiellin et al, 2013). Number of days drinking in the past 30 days in the current sample ( M =4.72, SD =8.63, 15.73% of days) is consistent with past work using the 30-day TLFB among PLWHA (16.60% of days; Simpson, Xie, Blum, & Tucker, 2011).…”

“…Specifically, anxiety sensitivity was expected to positively predict emotion dysregulation, which, in turn, would be associated with the alcohol dependent variables. In the current study, four clinically significant dependent variables identified in past work among PLWHA (e.g., Fiellin, McGinnis, Maisto, Justice, & Bryant, 2013; Surah et al, 2013) were evaluated: 1) hazardous drinking, 2) symptoms of alcohol dependence, 3) number of days consuming alcohol within the past month, and 4) past report of heavy episodic drinking. It was expected that such an effect of anxiety sensitivity via emotion dysregulation would be evident on all criterion measures over and above variance accounted for by the following covariates: gender, sexual orientation, time since HIV diagnosis, and presence of a substance use disorder.…”

Hazardous drinking is prevalent among persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Anxiety sensitivity is a vulnerability factor that is highly associated with hazardous drinking among seronegatives, but has yet to be tested in PLWHA. Additionally, there is a need to examine potential mechanisms underlying associations of anxiety sensitivity and hazardous drinking. Emotion dysregulation is one potential construct that may explain the association between anxiety sensitivity and hazardous drinking. The current study examined emotion dysregulation as a potential explanatory variable between anxiety sensitivity and four, clinically significant alcohol-related outcomes among PLWHA: hazardous drinking, symptoms of alcohol dependence, number of days consuming alcohol within the past month, and degree of past heavy episodic drinking. The sample included 126 PLWHA (Mage=48.3; SD=7.5; 65.9% male). Results indicated significant indirect effects of anxiety sensitivity via emotion dysregulation in all models. Indirect effects (κ2) were of medium effect size. Alternative models were run reversing the predictor with mediator and, separately, reversing the mediator with the proposed outcome(s); alternative models yielded non-significant indirect effects in all but one case. Together, the current results indicate that anxiety sensitivity is associated emotion dysregulation, which, in turn, is associated with hazardous drinking outcomes. Overall, these findings may provide initial empirical evidence that emotion dysregulation may be a clinical intervention target for hazardous drinking.

“…Researchers have raised questions about the accuracy of shorter or longer term recall periods for alcohol consumption, adherence and unprotected sex using TLFB or other recall approaches (59). To address this question the recall patterns of study participants examined over a 30 day period for alcohol consumption (number of drinks), nonadherence, and sexual risk taking (sex without condom with any partner…”

Objective(s) People Living with HIV (PLHIV) on anti-retroviral treatment (ART) who drink are less adherent and more likely to engage in unprotected sex. Using an adapted Timeline Follow-Back (A-TLFB) procedure, this paper examines the day by day interface of alcohol, medication adherence and sex to provide a fine grained understanding of how multiple behavioral risks coincide in time and space, explores concordance/discordance of measures with survey data and identifies potential recall bias. Methods Data are drawn from a survey of behavior, knowledge and attitudes, and a 30 day TLFB assessment of multiple risk behaviors adapted for the Indian PLHIV context, administered to 940 alcohol-consuming, HIV positive men on ART at the baseline evaluation stage of a multilevel, multi-centric intervention study Results On days participants drank they were significantly more likely to be medication non-adherent and to have unprotected sex. In the first day after their alcohol consuming day, the pattern of nonadherence persisted. Binge and regular drinking days were associated with nonadherence but only binge drinking co-occurred with unprotected sex. Asking about specific “drinking days” improved recall for drinking days and number of drinks consumed. Recall declined for drinking days and nonadherence from the first week to subsequent weeks but varied randomly for sex risk. There was high concordance and low discordance between adapted TLFB drinking and nonadherence but these results were reversed for unprotected sex. Conclusions Moving beyond simple drinking-adherence correlational analysis, the adapted TLFB offers improved recall probes and provides researchers and interventionists with the opportunity to identify types of risky days and tailor behavioral modification to reduce alcohol consumption, nonadherence and risky sex on those days.
