Note. Values are frequencies or means ± standard deviation;
p<0.05
(mean value differs from that of urine positive cocaine participants;
mean value differs from that of urine negative cocaine participants;
mean value differs from that of controls);
urine negative cocaine participants, despite not having used cocaine within 72 hours, could still meet criteria for current cocaine use disorder; conversely, urine positive cocaine participants, despite having used cocaine within 72 hours, could still meet criteria for cocaine use disorder in partial remission.
Data missing for 2 participants. WRAT = Wide Range Achievement Test; WASI = Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence; CSSA = Cocaine Selective Severity Assessment Scale.
