近年来大麻使用的增加突出了了解大麻如何影响心理健康的重要性。特别相关的是大麻使用对焦虑和抑郁的影响，因为大麻使用在青少年后期/早期成年人中最高，同一年龄段的焦虑和抑郁风险最高。在这里，我们研究大麻的使用如何缓和气质对焦虑和抑郁水平的影响，在一个前瞻性的设计中，基线大麻的使用和气质预测一年后的焦虑和抑郁。我们发现，伤害回避（HA）与一年后更高的焦虑和抑郁有关，但仅限于大麻使用率低的人群。那些大麻使用率较高的人显示HA与焦虑和抑郁症状之间没有关系。大麻的使用也缓和了新奇寻求（NS）的影响，只有在大麻使用率高的人中，焦虑和抑郁的症状才会随着NS的增加而增加。NS与大麻使用率低的人的焦虑和抑郁症状无关。奖励依赖的气质维度与焦虑、抑郁症状无关。我们的研究结果表明，大麻的使用并没有一个不变的关系与焦虑和抑郁症，相对稳定的气质尺寸的影响可以通过其他上下文因素进行调节。
Increases in marijuana use in recent years highlight the importance of understanding how marijuana affects mental health. Of particular relevance is the effect of marijuana use on anxiety and depression given that marijuana use is highest among late adolescents/early adults, the same age range in which risk for anxiety and depression is the highest. Here we examine how marijuana use moderates the effects of temperament on level of anxiety and depression in a prospective design in which baseline marijuana use and temperament predict anxiety and depression one year later. We found that harm avoidance (HA) is associated with higher anxiety and depression a year later, but only among those low in marijuana use. Those higher in marijuana use show no relation between HA and symptoms of anxiety and depression. Marijuana use also moderated the effect of novelty seeking (NS), with symptoms of anxiety and depression increasing with NS only among those with high marijuana use. NS was unrelated to symptoms of anxiety and depression among those low in marijuana use. The temperament dimension of reward dependence was unrelated to anxiety and depression symptoms. Our results suggest that marijuana use does not have an invariant relationship with anxiety and depression, and that the effects of relatively stable temperament dimensions can be moderated by other contextual factors.
