Abstract
A working outline is provided of the randomized response model which offers an alternative indirect procedure for obtaining estimates of drug use. Evidence obtained from an experimental study demonstrated significant under-reporting of drug use when estimates were obtained by standard direct methods of inquiry when compared to those obtained by the randomized response technique.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
