Résumé : |
ENGLISH : Previous research has suggested that the use of 3, 4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or "ecstasy") is primarily concentrated among white users. These studies, however, have all been conducted at single points in time. No research has examined the temporal relationship between race and the use of ecstasy. In the current study, we use data collected from respondents surveyed through the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse between 1990 and 2001. Chi-square statistics are used to explore the temporal relationship between race and the use of ecstasy during this time frame. While lifetime prevalence estimates are low relative to other populations, a consistent, statistically significant relationship between race and ecstasy use is discerned throughout the 1990s. Policy implications are assessed in light of the findings. (Author' s abstract) |
