简要总结
This descriptive and declarative study will help to find out consumption rates, all psychoactive substances taken together, among 18-25 year olds. More specifically, it will allow assessment of the extent of the cognitive enhancement phenomenon among students in France (including study of misuse of methylphenidate (MPH) and modafinil in improvement of cognitive performance).
详细描述
This descriptive and declarative study will help to find out consumption rates, among 18-25 year olds, all psychoactive substances (PAS) taken together. More specifically, it will allow assessment of the extent of the cognitive enhancement phenomenon among students in France (including study of misuse of methylphenidate (MPH) and modafinil, two drugs diverted from their indications for improvement of cognitive performance).
Since Faculties of Sciences and Technics of Physical and Sports Activities (UFR STAPS) are involved in the study, the issue of doping in Sports will also be addressed.
The main aim of this national study will be to assess for two successive academic years the proportion and motives of consumption of PAS as part of cognitive enhancement among students in real life.
Secondary aims will be: assessing consumption of PAS and desired effects when such consumption beyond cognitive enhancement (experimental, recreational, abusive or therapeutic use) but also comparing PAS uses in terms of a variety of characteristics (sex, age, field, year of study) and finally to consider more broadly the health of students in a doping behavior (impact of the use of products on health, whether cognitive enhancement is found to be ethically acceptable or not).
The study will be conducted during a period of 3 years, between September 2016 and September 2019, according to a standardized methodology identical in every school involved and a procedure based on an online self-administrated and anonymous survey questionnaire. The questionnaire, elaborated on Limesurvey®, will be available for two successive academic years for all students aged more than 18 years old. It is set up and hosted on a secured high-capacity web server via the website of AP-HP.
