Abstract

We examined the association of recreational cannabis legalization (RCL) with frequency of using cannabis, alcohol, and sleep medication for sleep and with co-use of cannabis with other sleep aids. We used linear regression models to examine these associations in a population-based sample of adult twins (n = 3,141). Participants (M_age = 37 (SD = 5)) were primarily White (93%), with 5% Hispanic/Latinx, and female (61%). RCL was associated with using cannabis for sleep more frequently even after controlling for cohort, demographics, sleep quality, anxiety, depression, physical health, season, and pre-legalization cannabis use frequency (β = 0.123, p = .001). RCL was not associated with frequency of using alcohol or sleep medication for sleep, or with co-use of cannabis and other sleep aids. More research is needed to determine whether RCL leads to more frequent use of cannabis for sleep.

娱乐性大麻合法化与使用大麻睡眠频率的关系。

我们研究了娱乐性大麻合法化（RCL）与使用大麻、酒精和睡眠药物的频率以及大麻与其他助眠药物的共同使用之间的关系。我们使用线性回归模型在以人口为基础的成年双胞胎样本（n = 3141）中检验这些关联。参与者（Mage = 37 (SD = 5)）主要是白人（93%），西班牙裔/拉丁裔占5%，女性（61%）。即使在控制了队列、人口统计学、睡眠质量、焦虑、抑郁、身体健康、季节和大麻合法化前使用频率后，RCL与更频繁地使用大麻睡眠有关（β = 0.123, p = .001）。RCL与使用酒精或睡眠药物的频率无关，也与共同使用大麻和其他助眠药物无关。需要更多的研究来确定RCL是否会导致更频繁地使用大麻来睡觉。
