---Not available. \1\Survey question changed in 1993; data are not comparable to figures for earlier years. \2\Other illicit drugs include any use of LSD, other hallucinogens, crack, other cocaine, or heroin, or any use of other narcotics, amphetamines, barbiturates, or tranquilizers not under a doctor's orders. NOTE: A revised questionnaire was used in 1982 and later years to reduce the inappropriate reporting of nonprescription stimulants. This slightly reduced the positive responses for some types of drug abuse. SOURCE: University of Michigan, Institute for Social Research, "Monitoring the Future" Study.
