KCL
Cocaine Cues Inventory Study 

We’re seeking participants for a study focused on understanding cocaine cravings in individuals with a recent history of regular cocaine use. Using a brief self-report questionnaire, we will examine the intensity, frequency, and common triggers of cravings to understand how environmental and psychological factors influence cocaine use. If you or someone you know would like to contribute to this research, please get in touch for more information. Your input could be vital in improving support for others experiencing cocaine cravings.
