Changes in the Sex/Gender Gap in Cannabis Use in Ontario, Canada From 2001 to 2019
Introduction
Although cannabis use has been historically higher in men than women, some research suggests a narrowing of the sex/gender gap in recent decades. We characterised trends in cannabis use patterns by sex/gender and examined trends in the sex/gender ratios of cannabis use patterns in Ontario, Canada.
Methods
Data were drawn from the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Monitor Survey, a repeated, population-based, cross-sectional telephone survey of adults in Ontario, Canada (2001–2019). Participants provided self-reports of cannabis use during lifetime and cannabis use during the past 12 months. Male-to-female ratios of both outcomes in each year were calculated. Trends in these outcomes were analysed using join point regression.
Results
All outcomes increased among males and females between 2001 and 2019: cannabis use in lifetime (average annual percentage change [AAPC; 95% confidence interval]: 2.0 [0.6–3.3] and 2.9 [1.8–4.0], respectively) and cannabis use during past 12 months (3.5 [2.2–4.9] and 4.7 [2.8–6.6], respectively). The male-to-female ratio of cannabis use during lifetime decreased between 2001 and 2019 (AAPC [95% confidence interval]: −0.7, [−1.0 to −0.4]), unlike cannabis use during past 12 months (−0.5 [−1.8–0.7]).
Discussion and Conclusions
Our findings suggest a narrowing of the sex/gender gap in cannabis use. Continued monitoring of the sex/gender gap is important to inform health promotion efforts and guide cannabis policy.
期刊介绍:
Drug and Alcohol Review is an international meeting ground for the views, expertise and experience of all those involved in studying alcohol, tobacco and drug problems. Contributors to the Journal examine and report on alcohol and drug use from a wide range of clinical, biomedical, epidemiological, psychological and sociological perspectives. Drug and Alcohol Review particularly encourages the submission of papers which have a harm reduction perspective. However, all philosophies will find a place in the Journal: the principal criterion for publication of papers is their quality.
