Gender differences in length of time between abuse and dependence (LOTAD) for DSM-IV disorders related to use of cannabis, alcohol, opiates, and cocaine. Notes: In each of the four subfigures are presented two pairs of survival curves, one pair for women (abuse and dependence) and one pair for men (abuse and dependence). The size of the gap between the abuse and dependence curve for each gender is the LOTAD for that gender related to the substance depicted in the subfigure. Legend: (—) women abuse; (- - -) women dependence; (-·-·-) men abuse; (···) men dependence.
