Abstract
Adolescents and young adults (AYA) who vape e-cigarettes are likely to use cannabis (“dual use”), but little research has examined factors influencing future use pattern-. Using longitudinal data from 551 Ohio AYA (aged 15–24) who reported past-3-month e-cigarette use, we explored associations between baseline dual use and continued e-cigarette and cannabis use one year later, adjusting for sociodemographic factors. At baseline, 42.3 % of participants reported past-30-day cannabis use, indicating a high prevalence of dual use within this sample. Logistic regressions revealed that past-30-day tobacco use predicted continued e-cigarette use (OR = 1.97), but dual use at baseline was not a significant predictor. However, baseline dual use (OR = 4.58), lifetime cannabis use (OR = 3.91), and Sexual and Gender Minority status (OR = 2.57) significantly predicted continued cannabis use. These findings highlight the importance of addressing dual use in prevention efforts, as dual use at baseline was a strong predictor of continued cannabis use one year later—particularly among historically marginalized groups and those with prior cannabis exposure.
期刊介绍:
Addictive Behaviors is an international peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality human research on addictive behaviors and disorders since 1975. The journal accepts submissions of full-length papers and short communications on substance-related addictions such as the abuse of alcohol, drugs and nicotine, and behavioral addictions involving gambling and technology. We primarily publish behavioral and psychosocial research but our articles span the fields of psychology, sociology, psychiatry, epidemiology, social policy, medicine, pharmacology and neuroscience. While theoretical orientations are diverse, the emphasis of the journal is primarily empirical. That is, sound experimental design combined with valid, reliable assessment and evaluation procedures are a requisite for acceptance. However, innovative and empirically oriented case studies that might encourage new lines of inquiry are accepted as well. Studies that clearly contribute to current knowledge of etiology, prevention, social policy or treatment are given priority. Scholarly commentaries on topical issues, systematic reviews, and mini reviews are encouraged. We especially welcome multimedia papers that incorporate video or audio components to better display methodology or findings.
Studies can also be submitted to Addictive Behaviors? companion title, the open access journal Addictive Behaviors Reports, which has a particular interest in ''non-traditional'', innovative and empirically-oriented research such as negative/null data papers, replication studies, case reports on novel treatments, and cross-cultural research.
