For example, it may be important to analyze subpopulations within a data file such as racial minorities, yet these subjects may present the greatest disclosure risk because their records tend to stand out or be unique. Files or records that are linkable create another type of disclosure risk-common elements between two files can be used to link files with sensitive data to externally available files that disclose identity. Examples of disclosure limitation methods used to address these types of issues include blanking out data, coarsening response categories, or withholding data altogether. However, the very detail that creates the greatest risk also provides insight into differences that are of greatest interest to analysts. Restricted-use agreements that provide unaltered versions of the data may not be available, or only selectively so. The public-use version of the data is very important because it is likely to be the only one to which most researchers, policy analysts, teaching faculty, and students will ever have access. Hence, it is the version from which much of the utility of the data is extracted and often it effectively becomes the historical record of the data collection. This underscores the importance that the disclosure review c ommittee s trikes a g ood b alance b etween protection and u tility. In this paper we d escrib e our disclosure review committee's (DRC) analysis and resulting data protection plans for two national studies and one administrative data system. Three distinct disclosure limitation methods were employed, taking key uses of the data into consideration, to protect respondents while still providing statistically accurate and highly useful public-use data. The techniques include data swapping, microaggregation, and suppression of detailed geographic data. We describe the characteristics of the data sets that led to the selection of these methods, provide measures of the statistical impact, and give details of their implementations so that others may also utilize them. We briefly discuss the composition of our DRC, highlighting what we believe to be the important disciplines and experience represented by the group.

White women tend to have experienced more disruptions and crises and to be linked with other drug abusers. ...

Addiction is both a cultural and biological phenomenon. Sex and gender differences are not solely determined by our biology, nor are they entirely cultural; they are interactions between biology and the environment that are continuously played out throughout development. Lessons from the historical record illustrate how context and attitudes affect the way that substance use in men and women is regarded. Finally, cultural and environmental influences may differentially affect men and women, and affect how they respond to drugs of abuse and to treatment protocols. We recommend that both animal models and clinical research need to be developed to consider how contextual and social factors may influence the biological processes of addiction and relapse differentially in males and females.

We created a vocabulary boosting and matching tool augmented with domain-specific corpora and relevance information. We find that the adoption of domain-specific corpora enhances model performance when identifying PODS-related words in short student-written responses to writing prompts, by building a more highly focused PODS vocabulary.

Women were often not included in research samples or represented in such a small percentage of the total sample that any description of their distinctive characteristics and related needs was difficult. Data were rarely analyzed and reported by sex. During the 70’s, coinciding with a general societal reappraisal of theories and knowledge about women and their service needs, substance abuse researchers began to address these omissions. This new research has identified key differences between addicted men and women (e.g., Aron and Daily, 1976) and some important value similarities between addicted and “straight” women (e.g., Miller et al., 1973).

The human services organizational literature suggests that a better understanding of program services and activities is likely to help explicate the determinants of proximate and long-term outcomes for drug addicted clients.

White women, however, experienced more disturbances within the family of origin, early drug use, overdoses, use of different kinds of drugs, suicide attempts, criminal involvement, and linkages with drug-abusing partners. Black women were more likely to have child care responsibilities.
