Table 1 Number of SSC responses as a function of response category and survey

From: Assessing the Prevalence of Doping Among Elite Athletes: An Analysis of Results Generated by the Single Sample Count Method Versus the Unrelated Question Method

	“0 or 5”	“1”	“2”	“3”	“4”	M
WCA doping	154	333	426	185	105	1.796
PAG doping	77	274	308	212	83	1.948
PAG supplements	76	270	342	182	84	1.925

The last column gives the average number of responses (with the “0 or 5” option coded as zero true statements to calculate the average number under the assumption that the doping prevalence would be zero.)
