In both trials our primary outcome measure will be quantity of alcohol consumed at 12 months after randomisation.
The primary outcome measure is the weekly quantity of cocaine used at the 6-month follow-up.
The primary outcome measure is the weekly quantity of cocaine used, a very promising measure for this type of intervention in problematic cocaine users [ 18].
The primary outcome measure will be the weekly quantity of cocaine used.
We added an unplanned sixth outcome measure, combining drinking frequency and quantity (AUDIT items 1 and 2) to form a total weekly consumption outcome.
To measure the program's impact, we implement a regression discontinuity (RD) design on principal researchers who applied for funding between 1988 and 1997 considering as outcomes both quantity (publications up to 2002) and quality (citations up to 2005) of their scientific production.
Secondary outcomes include; quantity and frequency of alcohol consumed, alcohol-related problems, motivation to change, health related quality of life and service utilisation.
The four primary outcomes (frequency, quantity, volume and AREAS scores) were analysed with negative binomial regression with empirical variance using STATA version 10.1.
Generalized linear models (GLM) with Gaussian family and log function were used to adjust for the potentially confounding effect of age, gender, smoking status, dental plaque, BoP and total protein on the outcome (molecule quantities).
The findings show that the time spent on student system interactions had a consistent and positive effect on the learning outcome, while the quantity of student content interactions was negatively associated with the final course grades.
Informed by a realist approach, the model explained variation in (a) policy implementation (b) the breastfeeding outcomes, whereas the quantity of intervention delivered did not.
