Average years of education (±s.e.) | 11.6 (0.97) | 12.4 (1.91) | 11.8 (1.09) | 12.5 (1.60) |
Average years of cocaine use (±s.e.) | 11.5 (5.97) | 10.05 (5.58) | 13 (3.32) | 12.13 (6.45) |
Average days of cocaine use/month (±s.e.) | 17.5 (10.49) | 17.65 (8.10) | 15.8 (11.9) | 16 (7.8) |
Total amount (g) of cocaine use in the past 90 days (±s.e.) | 29.23 (21.42) | 61.13 (106.2) | 20.44 (15.65) | 56.17 (42.08) |
Average years of alcohol use (±s.e.) | 15.89 (9.7) | 11.19 (8.34) | 14.75 (10.72) | 13.12 (9.30) |
Average days of alcohol use/month (±s.e.) | 7.9 (7.4) | 10.55 (9.16) | 5.2 (6.3) | 9.25 (9.84) |
Regular cigarette smokers: N (%)* | 10 (100%) | 46 (80%) | 5 (100%) | 6 (75%) |
Abbreviation: fMRI, functional magnetic resonance imaging.
*P<0.05. Note: No significant differences were observed across all variables between the genotype groups in either the laboratory study or the fMRI study of the participants (P's>0.05). The CG group included significantly more cigarette smokers than the CC group (P<0.05).
