Psychiatr Clin North Am

September 2022

Division of Addiction Research and Treatment, Department of Psychiatry, University of Maryland School of Medicine, 22 S. Greene Street S-1-D-04, Baltimore, MD 21201, USA.

This article provides an overview of harm reduction and its application to alcohol, tobacco, and drug use. It discusses the importance of integrating harm reduction principles and services with traditional psychiatric, medical, and addiction treatment programs.

In this study, we investigated the cause and locus of the taboo interference effect by contrasting three tasks that used the same target pictures, but systematically differed with respect to the processing stages involved: picture naming (requiring conceptual processing, lexical processing, and articulation), phoneme decision (requiring conceptual and lexical processing), and natural size decision (requiring conceptual processing only).
