摘要
目的:尽管已知广泛性焦虑症(GAD)与大麻使用风险增加有关,但导致广泛性焦虑症和大麻使用同时发生的因素仍未得到充分研究。目前的研究评估了焦虑敏感性(AS)和不确定性不耐受(IU)在大麻使用方面的贡献,以及临床焦虑升高的个体使用大麻的应对动机。方法:研究对象为220名完成自我报告测量的本科生(Mage= 19.44, SD = 2.46, range = 18-40, 82.3%为女性,89.1%为白人)。结果:在控制性别和负面情绪的情况下,较高的AS(而非IU)与较高的上个月大麻使用频率(4.4%方差)和应对使用动机(4.9%方差)显著正相关。在随访分析中,AS-Social concern与大麻使用的应对动机显著正相关(方差为7.1%)。结论:以AS为目标,旨在减少广泛性焦虑症高危人群大麻使用的干预措施可能会受益。
Examining the Role of Anxiety Sensitivity and Intolerance of Uncertainty in Terms of Cannabis Use and Coping Motives for Cannabis Use in College Students With Clinically Elevated Worry.
Aim: Despite knowledge that generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is associated with increased risk for cannabis use, factors contributing to the co-occurrence of GAD and cannabis use remain understudied. The current study evaluated the contributions of anxiety sensitivity (AS) and intolerance of uncertainty (IU) in terms of cannabis use and coping motives for use in individuals with clinically elevated worry.
Methods: Participants were 220 undergraduate students ( Mage = 19.44, SD = 2.46, range = 18-40; 82.3% female; 89.1% White) who completed self-report measures.
Results: When controlling for sex and negative affect, greater AS, but not IU, was significantly positively associated with greater frequency of past month cannabis use (4.4% variance) and coping motives for use (4.9% variance). AS-Social Concerns was significantly positively associated with coping motives for cannabis use in follow-up analyses (7.1% variance).
Conclusions: Intervention efforts aimed at reducing cannabis use among individuals at-risk for GAD may benefit from targeting AS.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease publishes peer-reviewed articles containing new data or ways of reorganizing established knowledge relevant to understanding and modifying human behavior, especially that defined as impaired or diseased, and the context, applications and effects of that knowledge. Our policy is summarized by the slogan, "Behavioral science for clinical practice." We consider articles that include at least one behavioral variable, clear definition of study populations, and replicable research designs. Authors should use the active voice and first person whenever possible.
