To investigate the possible association between untreated ADHD symptoms (as measured by the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale) and persistent nonmedical use of prescription stimulants.
Multinomial regression modeling was used to compare ADHD symptoms among three groups of college students enrolled in a longitudinal study over 4 years: (1) persistent nonmedical users of prescription stimulants, (2) persistent users of marijuana who did not use prescription stimulants nonmedically, and (3) consistent nonusers of drugs.
ADHD symptoms were associated with being a persistent nonmedical user of prescription stimulants after adjustment for race/ethnicity, sex, socioeconomic status, and other illicit drug use. No associations were observed between ADHD symptoms and being a persistent marijuana user or nonuser.
ADHD symptoms, and in particular inattention symptoms, appeared to be associated with nonmedical use of prescription stimulants.
探究未经治疗的 ADHD 症状(通过成人 ADHD 自评量表测量)与持续非医疗使用处方兴奋剂之间可能存在的关联。
采用多项回归建模比较了纵向研究中 4 年期间入组的三组大学生的 ADHD 症状:(1)持续非医疗使用处方兴奋剂者,(2)持续使用大麻但非医疗使用处方兴奋剂者,以及(3)持续未使用药物者。
调整种族/民族、性别、社会经济地位和其他非法药物使用因素后,ADHD 症状与持续非医疗使用处方兴奋剂有关。ADHD 症状与持续使用大麻或不使用者之间未观察到关联。
ADHD 症状,尤其是注意力不集中症状,似乎与非医疗使用处方兴奋剂有关。
