这是一项关于纽约市参加美沙酮治疗计划的可卡因使用者和非使用者的犯罪活动的研究。在被调查的140名美沙酮使用者中，100人(71%)是可卡因使用者。除婚姻状况外，两组之间没有人口统计学差异。已婚客户(包括普通法已婚客户)比从未结婚的单身客户更有可能成为非使用者。使用症状自评量表的子量表，可卡因吸毒者明显更抑郁。尽管不吸食可卡因的人终生被捕和参与犯罪的人数(在调查访问前一年)明显低于吸食可卡因的人，但差异并不显著。在多元回归分析中，美沙酮计划的住院时间是参与犯罪的最强预测因素。那些在治疗中保留时间较长的人参与犯罪活动的可能性明显较低，无论是否使用可卡因。
This was a study of criminal activities of cocaine users versus non‐users enrolled in a methadone treatment program in New York City. Of those 140 methadone clients studied, 100 (71%) were cocaine users. There were no demographic differences between the two groups except marital status. Married clients (including common‐law married) were more likely than never‐married single clients to be non‐users. Cocaine users were significantly more depressed, using the subscale of the Symptom Checklist‐90. Although numbers of lifetime arrests and criminal involvement (in the year immediately preceding the research interview) of cocaine non‐users were distinctively lower than those of users, the differences were not significant. In a multiple regression analysis, length of stay in the methadone program was the strongest predictor of criminal involvement. Those who were retained longer in the treatment were significantly less likely to be involved in criminal activities, regardless of cocaine use.
