Cocaine use was determined by responses to questions on whether participants had ever used cocaine (including all forms of cocaine, such as powder, "crack," freebase, and coca paste) even once, and when they last used any form of cocaine. Of the 1094 individuals without missing data, about 82% had never tried cocaine (n = 896), about 16% used it but not in the past-year (n = 170), and about 3% did use it in the last-year (n = 28). Among the past-year current users, about 14% used cocaine daily or almost daily, about 43% used it from once or twice a week to once or twice a month, and about 43% used it between once and eleven times a year.
