成瘾症状与年轻人中有问题的大麻使用有关,但这种关联的机制以及性别差异是否存在仍不清楚。使用横截面数据,本研究探讨了消极情绪作为男性和女性大学生失眠和大麻问题之间关联的中介。报告在过去一个月使用大麻的本科生(n= 267; 61%为女性)完成了一项在线调查,评估失眠症状,消极情绪和大麻问题。控制相关协变量,使用间接效应的自举显著性检验(n靴子= 1,000),将负面情绪作为失眠和大麻问题之间关联的中介进行检查。结果表明,更高水平的失眠与更高水平的消极情绪(无论性别如何)相关,而消极情绪又与更大的大麻相关问题相关。总之,在使用大麻的大学生中,失眠症状与更多的负面情绪有关,这种对负面情绪的影响占失眠症状与大麻相关问题的很大一部分。需要进行研究以确定这些关联是否前瞻性地维持。
Insomnia symptoms have been linked to problematic marijuana use among young adults, but the mechanism underlying this association and whether sex differences exist, remains unclear. Using cross‐sectional data, this study examined negative mood as a mediator of the association between insomnia and marijuana problems among male and female college students. Undergraduate students (n= 267; 61% female) reporting marijuana use in the past month completed an online survey assessing insomnia symptoms, negative mood and marijuana problems. Controlling for relevant covariates, negative mood was examined as a mediator of the association between insomnia and marijuana problems using bootstrapped significance tests for indirect effects (n‐boot = 1,000). Results indicated that higher levels of insomnia were associated with greater levels of negative mood (regardless of sex), which in turn were associated with greater marijuana‐related problems. In conclusion, insomnia symptoms are associated with more negative mood among college students who use marijuana, and this effect on negative mood accounts for a large part of the association of insomnia symptoms with marijuana‐related problems. Research is needed to determine if these associations are maintained prospectively.
