Table 2.

Factor loadings and inter-factor correlations from the full sample. Significant factor loadings are bolded. In the full sample, a 4-factor solution was supported both for mean and dose responses representing the following SR domains: Stimulation/Hedonia, Craving/Motivation, Sedation/Motor Intoxication, and Negative Affect.
