Abstract

The current study examines the effect of anxiety, using the Anxiety Sensitivity Index (ASI), on phencyclidine (PCP) use. Results indicate that the total score on the ASI is a significant indicator of PCP use. Furthermore, gender was found to be a moderator between anxiety sensitivity and PCP use.
