单独使用大麻所造成的大麻问题比社会使用大麻所造成的问题更严重，而且由于与大流行病有关的隔离，单独使用大麻可能越来越普遍。然而，对单独使用大麻的模式、相关因素和后果知之甚少。本研究旨在描述自大流行爆发以来单独使用大麻的特征，研究心理社会风险因素，并研究单独和社会大麻使用频率对大麻后果的相互作用。美国东北部一所私立大学的终身大麻使用者大学生（N= 168）于2020年秋季完成了一项在线横断面调查。过去一年单独使用大麻在终身大麻使用者中很常见（过去一年为42%，每月29%或更多），特别是在过去一年的常规大麻使用者中（每月85%或更多）。单独使用频率与人际敏感和流行病相关的压力有关。此外，单独使用减弱了社会使用频率与大麻后果的关联，使得社会使用频率仅在完全社会用户中与更大的后果相关。相比之下，无论社交使用频率如何，单独使用者报告的大麻后果比完全社交用户更大。研究结果表明，单独使用大麻同时与更大的大麻后果有关，预防和干预策略应考虑情感风险因素（人际关系敏感性，大流行压力）。
Solitary cannabis use has been associated with greater cannabis problems than social use and may be increasingly prevalent due to pandemic-related isolation. However, little is known about patterns, correlates, and consequences of solitary cannabis use. This study sought to characterize solitary cannabis use since pandemic onset, examine psychosocial risk factors, and examine interactions between solitary and social cannabis use frequency on cannabis consequences. College students (N= 168) who were lifetime cannabis users at a private, northeastern university in the US completed an online cross-sectional survey in fall of 2020. Past-year solitary cannabis use was common among life-time cannabis users (42% past year, 29% monthly or more), especially among past-year regular cannabis users (85% monthly or more). Solitary use frequency was associated with interpersonal sensitivity and pandemic-related stress. Further, solitary use attenuated associations of social use frequency with cannabis consequences, such that social use frequency was associated with greater consequences only among exclusively social users. In contrast, regardless of social use frequency, solitary users reported greater cannabis consequences than exclusively social users. Findings suggest solitary cannabis use is concurrently associated with greater cannabis consequences, and affective risk factors (interpersonal sensitivity, pandemic stress) should be considered for prevention and intervention strategies.
