We examined a random sample (N=3606) of undergraduates at one large midwestern university and explored correlates of ecstasy use and how use varied by gender, race, and sexual identity. Approximately 10% of the sample used ecstasy in their lifetime; 7% had used within the past year and 3% within the past month. Ecstasy was the second most likely illicit drug to be used, marijuana being the first. Multivariate logistic regression indicated that while men and women were equally likely to have used ecstasy, excessive partying, sexual identity, and grade point average were strongly correlated with ecstasy use. After adjusting for several factors, the number of sexual partners increased the likelihood of ecstasy use, as did self-reported sexual identity; gay, lesbian, and bisexual students were more than two times as likely to have used ecstasy in the past year. Significant relationships existed between ecstasy use and other substance use such as binge drinking, marijuana use, and cigarette smoking. Implications for interventions are discussed.
我们对一所中西部大型大学的本科生进行了随机抽样（N = 3606），探讨了摇头丸使用情况的相关因素，以及使用情况如何因性别、种族和性取向而有所不同。样本中约10%的人在一生中使用过摇头丸；7%在过去一年中使用过，3%在过去一个月内使用过。摇头丸是第二大最有可能被使用的非法药物，大麻位居第一。多变量逻辑回归表明，虽然男性和女性使用摇头丸的可能性相同，但过度聚会、性取向和平均绩点与摇头丸使用密切相关。在对几个因素进行调整后，性伴侣数量增加了使用摇头丸的可能性，自我报告的性取向也是如此；男同性恋、女同性恋和双性恋学生在过去一年中使用摇头丸的可能性是其他人的两倍多。摇头丸使用与其他物质使用（如狂饮、吸食大麻和吸烟）之间存在显著关系。文中讨论了干预措施的意义。
