Abstract

Objectives: The Emotional Cascade Model posits that rumination is associated with impulsivity and risky behaviours such as substance use. Although trauma-exposed individuals often engage in rumination and problematic cannabis use, this model has not been tested on trauma-exposed cannabis users. Therefore, our study examines the direct and indirect effects between rumination and its subtypes with problematic cannabis use among trauma-exposed cannabis users. We also examine how these associations occur through impulsivity.

Methods: A cross-sectional sample of 56 trauma-exposed young adult cannabis users (M_age = 21 years, 59% female, 73% white) self-reported rumination, impulsivity, and cannabis-related problems. All participants provided written informed consent, and procedures were approved by the university's Institutional Review Board and pre-registered.

Results: Regression analyses indicated total and brooding rumination were related to greater cannabis-related problems, after covarying for number of traumas and cannabis use frequency. Rumination, specifically brooding, was incrementally associated with greater cannabis-related problems and had an indirect effect on cannabis-related problems through impulsivity. Consistent with hypothesis, rumination and impulsivity were incrementally associated with greater problematic cannabis use among trauma-exposed cannabis users.

Conclusion: The current study expands work on the Emotional Cascade Model by supporting the indirect effect of impulsivity in the association between rumination and problematic cannabis use.

研究目的情绪级联模型认为，反刍与冲动和药物使用等危险行为有关。虽然遭受创伤的人经常会产生反刍和使用问题大麻，但这一模型尚未在遭受创伤的大麻使用者身上进行过测试。因此，我们的研究探讨了反刍及其亚型对受创伤影响的大麻使用者使用问题大麻的直接和间接影响。我们还研究了这些关联是如何通过冲动性发生的：56名受创伤的年轻成人大麻使用者（年龄=21岁，59%为女性，73%为白人）自我报告了反刍、冲动和大麻相关问题。所有参与者都提供了书面知情同意书，研究程序获得了大学机构审查委员会的批准，并进行了预先登记：回归分析表明，在与创伤次数和大麻使用频率相关联后，总遐想和忧郁遐想与大麻相关问题的增加有关。反刍，特别是沉思，与大麻相关问题的增加呈递增关系，并通过冲动性对大麻相关问题产生间接影响。与假设一致的是，反刍和冲动与受到创伤的大麻使用者使用大麻的问题更多呈递增关系：本研究通过支持冲动在反刍与问题性吸食大麻之间的关联中的间接作用，扩展了情绪级联模型的研究工作。
