评估大麻和酒精的使用频率是否与社会和情感健康指标(包括孤独、心理痛苦和年轻人在重要生活领域的兴旺)之间存在横向联系。研究样本包括562名年龄在22岁至29岁之间的参与者，他们最初是从美国太平洋西北部的一个城市地区招募的，作为一项关于社会角色转变和饮酒的纵向研究的一部分。在一次评估中，参与者完成了一项在线调查，其中包括一项衡量孤独的3项指标，一项衡量抑郁和焦虑症状的4项指标，以及一项衡量繁荣程度的12项指标，以及对大麻和酒精使用频率的衡量。线性和广义线性模型被用来估计大麻和酒精使用频率与幸福指标的关系。使用大麻的频率越高，孤独程度越高，心理痛苦程度越高，兴旺程度越低，其中日常吸食大麻的人与不吸食大麻的人的差异最大。然而，这些幸福感指标并没有因饮酒频率的不同而有显著差异。研究结果表明，经常吸食大麻而不是饮酒的人可能会经历更多的孤独，更多的心理困扰，以及不那么活跃。对经常吸食大麻的人采取干预措施可能是必要的，以减少孤独和心理痛苦的影响，并改善整体福祉。
To assess whether frequency of marijuana and alcohol use are cross-sectionally associated with indicators of social and emotional well-being including loneliness, psychological distress, and flourishing across important life domains among young adults. The study sample included 562 participants ages 22–29 who were originally recruited from an urban Pacific Northwest region in the US as part of a longitudinal study of social role transitions and alcohol use. At one assessment, participants completed an online survey that included a 3-item measure of loneliness, a 4-item measure of depression and anxiety symptoms, and a 12-item measure of flourishing as well as measures of marijuana and alcohol use frequency. Linear and generalized linear models were used to estimate associations of marijuana and alcohol use frequency with indicators of well-being. Greater frequency of marijuana use was associated with higher levels of loneliness, higher levels of psychological distress, and lower levels of flourishing, with the greatest difference observed for daily marijuana users compared to non-users. However, these indicators of well-being did not significantly differ by levels of alcohol use frequency. Study findings suggest that frequent users of marijuana, but not alcohol, may experience more loneliness, more psychological distress, and less flourishing. Intervention approaches for frequent marijuana users may be warranted to reduce impacts of loneliness and psychological distress and improve overall well-being.
