Current Primary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: June 21, 2011)
MDA will be metabolized to hydroxyamphetamine (HMA) and dihydroxyamphetamine (DHA) and will produce dose-dependent increases in neuroendocrine measures. [ Time Frame: 0-48 hours post dose ]
Original Primary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: January 14, 2009)
  • MDA will be metabolized to hydroxyamphetamine (HMA) and dihydroxyamphetamine (DHA). Urine is collected and analyzed for MDA and metabolites. [ Time Frame: 0-48 hrs. post dose ]
  • MDA dose-dependent increases in neuroendocrine measures assessed by cortisol, prolactin, and oxytocin levels. [ Time Frame: 0-48 hours post dose ]
Change History
Current Secondary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: June 21, 2011)
MDA will produce dose-dependent increases in self-report entactogen-like and stimulant like measures. [ Time Frame: 0-48 hours post dose ]
Original Secondary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: January 14, 2009)
  • MDA will produce dose-dependent increases in self-report stimulant like measures assessed by AVI positive affect. [ Time Frame: 0-48 hours post dose ]
  • MDA dose-dependent increases in self-report entactogen-like measures assessed by IASR Affiliativeness [ Time Frame: 0-48 hours post dose ]
