This study assesses the use of cognitive enhancement medication among university students in Northern Italy. It was conducted as a cross-sectional analysis on the basis of a paper-and-pencil survey of 77 undergraduate students attending courses in the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Milan, Milano, Italy. Although the share of students who have taken cognitive enhancement medication themselves in the past is still small (16%), the use of these drugs is rather common and freely communicated in some social circles. Enhancing the ability to study outside of the class was students' primary motive for use. Students who think that there is no or an acceptable risk involved in cognitive enhancement medication are more likely to take drugs and dietary supplements than those who perceive the risk as high.
本研究评估了意大利北部大学生使用认知增强药物的情况。这是在对意大利米兰大学医学系 77 名本科生进行纸笔调查的基础上进行的横断面分析。尽管过去曾经使用过认知增强药物的学生比例仍然较小（16%），但这些药物的使用在某些社交圈中相当普遍，且被自由交流。提高课外学习能力是学生使用的主要动机。那些认为认知增强药物没有风险或风险可以接受的学生比那些认为风险高的学生更有可能使用药物和膳食补充剂。
