Produktbeschreibung

"Substance Use and Addiction Research: Methodology, Mechanisms, and Therapeutics is an up-to-date, comprehensive, practical book on the research methodology for substance misuse and addiction intended for researchers and consumers of research information at all levels. The book is divided into three major parts: Research Methodology for Clinical Trials, Animal Research, and Retrospective Studies; Mechanisms of Drug Misuse and Addiction; and Investigative Therapeutics: Designing and Measuring Outcomes. It serves as a source that addresses all aspects of research design, methods, and analysis within the context of the field of opioids, alchohol, and other substances. The book discusses in detail the research methods used in designing prevention, screening, pharmacological management, and health services needed for substance misuse and addiction of all major illicit and prescribed drugs, foods, alcohol, and tobacco products. Research design and useful tips are provided for researchers and consumers of the literature, describing various biological methods, specialists, and analytical methods. The background is set up on the development of the discipline in question, its key features and applications, how the methods compare to other methods/analyses, and their advantages and limitations."--Back cover.
