Amphetamine/MDMA users were detected more easily, with a sensitivity higher than 92%. The sensitivity of oral fluid screening tests for THC is increasing as manufacturers are still trying to lower the cut-off of their devices.

The false positive rate (FPR) is the proportion of all negatives that still yield positive test outcomes, i.e., the conditional probability of a positive test result given an event that was not present. The false positive rate is equal to the significance level. The specificity of the test is equal to 1 minus the false positive rate.
