Annotated Bibliography Clemmitt, M. (2007, February 9). Combating addiction. CQ Researcher , 17 , 121-144. http://library.cqpress.com/ In this article written by Marcia Clemmitt she explains the research she had found from interviewing and readings about addiction. This article explains the brain function behind addiction, and she as well debates the disease and choice topic. There is a sentence from John T. Schwarzlose the president of the Betty Ford Center where he says “Once someone is addicted . . . there is a change, an alteration, of the neurochemistry of the brain. And you cannot go back once you've become addicted.” I think this perfectly embodies that addiction is a disease. This article will also help to clarify the difference between substance abuse and addiction. Marcia Clemmitt has a bachelor's degree in arts and sciences from St. John’s College and a master’s degree in English from Georgetown University. Most of her work was done being an editor for Medicine and Health out of Washington. Her work is considered credible because of her long history in Medicine and Health. Clemmitt has multiple volumes to follow with this article with all credible and important people that are well known to many. Friedman, J. (2014, May 2). Treating addiction. CQ Researcher , 24 , 385-408. http://library.cqpress.com/ In this report informs the reader about the opioid epidemic and statistics in young adults. Friedman also speaks about the genetics of addictions and how being predisposed to certain chemicals like nicotine as a fetus can in fact put you at a disadvantage to being

addicted. She brings up different studies done by The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) and The National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA). Having these studies will help me to debate that addiction is a disease and more than a choice. Jane Friedman is a writer/reporter out of Maryland and has her degree in political science from the University of Pennsylvania. Friedman gets most of her knowledge from government agencies and affiliations which makes her work credible and higher in my resources. She does an excellent job of quoting and referencing all her information with practical links and people to back up all her writings. Rogeberg, O. (2020). The theory of Rational Addiction. Addiction, 115(1), 184–187 This article is written by Ole Rogeberg and he explains the Becker & Murphy rational theory. This theory correlates addiction with choice which comes to behavior and environmental patterns. This is my opposing argument, but Rogeberg brought up good points in his writing and research. With his information we can look more into the theories he brings up and see how well it correlates with addiction being proved a moral choice. Ole Rogenberg has a PhD in economic research as well as a background in addiction research. He is credible from being a senior researcher at Ragnar Frisch Centre and attending the University of Oslo in Norway. He has reputable resources and scholarly writings on different takes in addiction as well. (2022). Substance Use, Abuse, and Addiction . American Psychological Association.
