2008, Accident Analysis and PreventionCitation Excerpt :The standard case–control study and the QIE method both reveal an increased risk of causing a crash when driving under the influence of cannabis and/or alcohol. These findings are in agreement with those found in the literature for alcohol (Borkenstein et al., 1974; Drummer et al., 2004; Perneger and Smith, 1991; Terhune, 1983) and confirm recent studies for cannabis (Asbridge et al., 2005; Bédard et al., 2007; Drummer et al., 2004; Ramaekers et al., 2004). While the QIE is currently considered as a specific analysis design in its own right, from an epidemiological point of view it is no more than a case–control study with crash responsibility status as the disease of interest (Rice et al., 2003; Sagberg, 2006).
