Abstract
The behavioral effects of caffeine, a widely consumed 1-3 substance and a recognized potent stimulant, 4-6 have been studied extensively for a variety of reasons 7: (1) it is readily available (2) it is generally recognized as safe; (3) it has a rapid onset of action; and (4) it is active when taken orally. However, the major disadvantage is that when administered in doses generally found in foods and drinks, its effects are slight, subtle, and almost negligible. 7. © 1999 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
