这项研究调查了大学新生大麻使用者中感知的社会规范、社会结果预期和大麻使用及相关后果之间的关系。学生（N = 312，55% 为女性）完成了对大麻使用、相关后果、感知规范以及与大麻使用相关的社会期望的在线评估。结果表明，与感知的禁令规范 (d = 0.30) 或期望 (d = 0. 19) 相比，对朋友吸食大麻的看法与吸食大麻 (d = 0.68) 的相关性最强，并且认为其他学生更频繁吸食大麻的学生与也认为其他学生更赞同大麻的学生的吸食关联性更强。此外，在对大麻社会抱有更积极期望的学生中，感知的描述性和禁令性规范与大麻使用之间的关系更强。描述性规范和预期均与大麻相关后果呈正相关，但是，在这两个变量水平较高时，禁令性规范与后果呈负相关。结果强调了区分描述性规范和禁令性规范以及大麻使用和相关后果的重要性。
This research examined the relationships among perceived social norms, social outcome expectancies, and marijuana use and related consequences among entering college freshman marijuana users. Students (N = 312, 55% female) completed online assessments of their marijuana use, related consequences, perceived norms, and social expectancies related to marijuana use. Results suggested that perceptions of friends' marijuana use were most strongly associated with marijuana use (d = 0.68), in comparison with perceived injunctive norms (d = 0.30) or expectancies (d = 0. 19), and that the perception that other used marijuana more frequently was more strongly associated with use among students who also perceived other students as more approving of marijuana. In addition, the relationships between perceived descriptive and injunctive norms and marijuana use were stronger among students who reported more positive social marijuana expectancies. Descriptive norms and expectancies were both positively associated with marijuana-related consequences, but, at high levels of both of these variables, injunctive norms were negatively associated with consequences. Results highlight the importance of distinguishing between descriptive and injunctive norms and between marijuana use and related consequences.
