Table 5. Simple Relationships between Components of Verbal Memory and Ecstasy Abstinence by Gender.
Ecstasy Abstinence | |||
Females (n = 22) | Males (n = 26) | Fisher's z | |
Trial 1 | .36* | .03 | 1.12 |
Trial B | .23 | .24 | −.03 |
SDFR | .41* | .27 | .51 |
SDCR | .49** | .04 | 1.6* |
LDFR | .36* | .09 | .92 |
LDCR | .41* | .08 | 1.15 |
LDFR vs. SDFR | −.03 | −.20 | 0.56 |
Recall Disc. | .40* | .26 | 0.51 |
Recog. | .58** | −.04 | 2.27** |
Correlations are Pearson Product Moment Correlations. Fisher's z statistics were calculated to determine whether correlations were significantly different between male and female ecstasy users. Abbreviations: SDFR = Short Delay Free Recall, SDCR = Short Delay Cued Recall, LDFR = Long Delay Free Recall, LDCR = Long Delay Cued Recall, LDFR vs. SDFR = Long Delay Free Recall vs. Short Delay Free Recall, Recall Disc. = Recall discriminability, Recog. = Total recognition.
