Forty-five hospitalized patients including twenty-nine men at the average age of 25.3+-5.4 years dependent on methamphetamine for 6.0+-3.3 years were assessed by the Continuous Performance Test.

We applied the Chi-Square Test, Two-Sample T Test, Mann-Whitney U Test and Kolmogorov- Smirnov Test to compare methamphetamine dependent patients with healthy volunteers. In the Continuous Performance Test, general T scores of commissions were significantly higher (p=0.02; Mann-Whitney U Test), but general T scores of hit reaction time (p{0.001; Mann-W
