SecondaryBIS-10 scoresDay 60
Compared scores from the French version of the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-10). The French version of the BIS-10 is a self-rated 34 item questionnaire, composed by three subscales: motor-impulsivity, cognitive-impulsivity and non-planning-impulsivity. Each item is scored on a 0 to 4 points scale. Higher scores indicate higher levels of impulsivity.

SecondaryMCQ scoresDay 60
Compared scores from the French version of the Monetary Choice Questionnaire. The MCQ is a self-rated 27 item questionnaire which assessed the discounting. Delay discounting is the decline in the present value of a reward with delay to its receipt. Example item: " Would you prefer 25€ today or 75€ in 15 days? " For each item, subjects must choose between a low immediate reward and a higher delayed reward. Waiting times vary from 7 days to 186 days, and rewards are divides into 3 magnitudes: low (25-35€), medium (50-60€), high (75-85€). This will allow assessing: * the influence of the the magnitude of the difference between the two rewards proposed, * the impact of the time on the reward's subjective value (speed at which the reward is devalued over time), reflected in the k index. This index is calculated separately for each magnitude, and an average index is calculated for each subject. The more the k index is high, the more the subject is considered impulsive.

SecondaryQIDS-C16 scaleDay 60
Compared scores from the French version of the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology. The QIDS-C16 is a 16 item questionnaire completed by the clinician to assess the depressive symptomatology and the severity of the depression. These 16 items are constructed around the 9 following symptoms: * sad mood, * concentration, * autocriticism, * suicidal thoughts, * ahnedonia, * fatigue, * sleep disorders, * appetite/weight changes, * psychomotor retardation/agitation. This scaled is based on the intensity of each symptom in the 7 last days, regardless of its chronicity or its recent apparition. Each symptom is rated 0 to 3. The total score thus vary from 0 to 27.
