CCQNOW
Description
The CCQ-Gen and CCQ-Now are 45 item self-report questionnaires that assesses cocaine craving. The Now version asks about current craving for cocaine, and the General version asks about average craving over the preceding week. Items for the questionnaire were generated to represent five distinct conceptualizations of cocaine craving: (1) desire to use cocaine; (2) anticipation of positive outcomes from cocaine use; (3) anticipation of relief from cocaine withdrawal symptoms or relief from negative mood; (4) intention and planning to use cocaine; (5) lack of control over use. The first 4 item categories were adapted from the QSU.
