Comparison of three measurement models of discounting among individuals with methamphetamine use disorder.

CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, the current study is the first to report significantly greater discounting in a MA-M relative to M-M discounting task among individuals with MAUD, an outcome consistent with other psychomotor stimulants and drugs of abuse.
SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE: The differential results observed across the three discounting models reaffirm potential issues with AUC noted in recent studies and highlight that researchers must be cautious when deciding on their final model of discounting. (Am J Addict 2018;XX:1-8).
