与酒精一样，大麻也是育龄妇女最常用的物质之一。最近的研究表明，产前使用大麻的有害影响。由于许多妇女在意识到自己怀孕之前就使用了这些物质，这些对妇女及其后代的严重健康后果非常令人担忧。尽管最近大麻使用激增，但对可能导致大麻暴露怀孕(CEP)风险的个人和社会文化因素知之甚少，特别是在也有酒精暴露怀孕风险的育龄拉丁裔中。在有AEP风险的拉丁裔成年人中，研究文化适应、酒精使用、酒精问题和心理困扰与大麻使用频率的关系。假设的模型包括76名拉丁裔，并使用通径分析进行分析。这项研究使用了一项针对初级保健诊所AEP风险女性的高风险饮酒和烟草使用干预的随机对照试验的基线数据。文化适应程度越高，吸食大麻的频率越高，心理痛苦也越大。文化适应与酒精使用以及通过心理困扰产生的酒精问题之间存在正的间接关系。更严重的酒精问题与更频繁地使用大麻有关。更大的心理痛苦和酗酒与因酒精问题而更频繁地使用大麻间接相关。调查结果强调了文化适应和与酒精有关的问题在大麻使用频率中的关键作用，并对预防努力解决有AEP风险的拉丁裔人使用大麻问题产生了相关影响。
Along with alcohol, cannabis is one of the most commonly used substances among women of childbearing age. Recent studies indicate detrimental effects of prenatal cannabis use. Because many women use these substances before realizing they are pregnant, these serious health consequences for women and their offspring are of great concern. Despite the recent upsurge in cannabis use, little is known about individual and sociocultural factors that may contribute to risk of a cannabis-exposed pregnancy (CEP), particularly among Latinas of child-bearing age also at risk of an alcohol-exposed pregnancy (AEP). Examine the relationships of acculturation, alcohol use, alcohol problems, and psychological distress with frequency of cannabis use among adult Latinas at risk of an AEP. The hypothesized model included 76 Latinas and was analyzed using path analysis. The study used baseline data from a randomized controlled trial of an intervention targeting risky drinking and tobacco use among women at risk of an AEP in primary care clinics. Greater acculturation was associated with more frequent cannabis use and greater psychological distress. There was a positive indirect relationship between acculturation and alcohol use and alcohol problems through psychological distress. Greater alcohol problems were associated with more frequent cannabis use. Greater psychological distress and alcohol use were indirectly related to more frequent cannabis use through alcohol problems. Findings underscore the critical role of acculturation and alcohol-related problems in cannabis use frequency and have relevant implications for preventive efforts addressing cannabis use among Latinas at risk of an AEP.
