A 2x2 factorial design was used to\r\nassess the effects of the two manipulations. The first two\r\nexperimental conditions involved administering either the standard DUF\r\ninformed consent or an enhanced consent that told the arrestees more\r\nabout the confidential nature of the research and the capabilities of\r\nurinalysis. The second two conditions involved collecting the urine\r\nspecimen either before or after the interview was administered. The\r\nexperiment included 2,015 adult arrestees from Cleveland, Ohio,\r\nDetroit, Michigan, and Houston, Texas, who were randomly assigned to\r\none of the four experimental conditions. The experiment was designed\r\nso that the only variability across the interviews was the\r\nmanipulation of informed consent and the sequencing of the urine\r\nspecimen request. All other procedures of a standard DUF collection\r\nwere followed. Data were collected in Cleveland between July 8 and\r\nAugust 22, 1997, in Detroit from August 4 to September 27, 1997, and\r\nin Houston from October 17 to November 1, 1997. Variables specific to\r\nthis project include the experimental condition to which the\r\nrespondent was assigned, follow-up questions asking whether the\r\narrestee would have responded differently if assigned to the other\r\nconditions, and several dummy variables on length and type of drug\r\nuse. Data from the DUF interview provided detailed information about\r\neach arrestee's self-reported use of 15 drugs. For each drug type,\r\narrestees were asked whether they had ever used the drug, the age at\r\nwhich they first used the drug, whether they had used the drug within\r\nthe past three days, how many days they had used the drug within the\r\npast month, whether they had ever needed or felt dependent on the\r\ndrug, and whether they were dependent on the drug at the time of the\r\ninterview. Data from the DUF interview instrument also included\r\nalcohol/drug treatment history, information about whether arrestees\r\nhad ever injected drugs, and whether they were influenced by drugs\r\nwhen the crime that they were charged with was committed. The data\r\nalso include information about whether the arrestee had been to an\r\nemergency room for drug-related incidents and whether he or she had\r\nhad prior arrests in the past 12 months. Urine tests screened for the\r\npresence of ten drugs, including marijuana, opiates, cocaine, PCP,\r\nmethadone, benzodiazepines (Valium), methaqualone, propoxyphene\r\n(Darvon), barbiturates, and amphetamines (positive test results for\r\namphetamines were confirmed by gas chromatography). Demographic data\r\ninclude the age, race, sex, educational attainment, marital status,\r\nemployment status, and living circumstances of each respondent.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR02890.v1", "title": "Experiment to Enhance the Reporting of Drug Use by Arrestees in Cleveland, Detroit, and Houston, 1997  "}], "identifier": "3575", "issued": "2001-04-12T00:00:00", "keyword": ["drug abuse", "drug dependence", "drug testing", "drug treatment", "drug use", "offenders", "treatment programs", "urinalysis"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2001-04-12T00:00:00", "programCode": ["011:060"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Institute of Justice", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "rights": "These data are restricted due to the increased risk of violation of confidentiality of respondent and subject data.", "title": "Experiment to Enhance the Reporting of Drug Use by Arrestees in Cleveland, Detroit, and Houston, 1997  "}
