What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The Reinforcing Drug Effects Will be Measured With the Drug Effects Questionnaire (DEQ).
Time Frame: up to 3 hours per test session.
|
The (DEQ) Drug Effects Questionnaire has eleven questions with a minimum score of 0 to a maximum score of 100. Peak values from each time points were calculated for the change in the intensity of positive subjective effects as measured with these peak values for like and want more were averaged to obtain a summary score to represent the feel "good drug effects" composite factor. Higher scores for each DEQ represent greater endorsement of that subjective effect (e.g., on the "like drug" scale a response of 90 represents greater liking than a response of 50). |
up to 3 hours per test session.
