在美国，大麻的使用已经成为一种更规范、更被社会接受的行为，尽管研究表明，频繁使用大麻可能会对一些人造成问题。成年期是身份发展的时期，是使用大麻最常见的时期。大麻自我概念，或一个人对大麻的认同作为其个性或身份的一部分，是可能影响使用行为的一个因素。这项研究扩展了以前的研究，通过评估大麻自我概念，使用动机，改变动机，感知描述规范以及大麻相关结果（使用，单独使用和大麻相关问题）之间的关系，报告了自我概念，动机因素和规范信念之间的联系。从社区样本中招募了在前一个月使用大麻的新兴成年人（n=345，53.9%男性，平均年龄21.0，67.5%非拉丁裔白色）进行健康行为研究。对参与者进行了明确的大麻自我概念，使用频率，与使用相关的问题，使用动机，改变动机以及对他人使用的规范信念的评估。参与者报告上个月平均使用大麻17.9天（SD=11.1）。相关性分析表明，大麻自我概念与使用频率，使用相关的问题，几个使用的动机，描述性规范，并与单独使用大麻呈正相关。多变量分析显示，使用率，问题，社会和增强动机与大麻自我概念独立呈正相关（p<0.05），而自我概念与减少大麻使用的愿望呈负相关。大麻自我概念可能是更多问题使用模式的标志。
Cannabis use has become a more normative, socially-acceptable behavior in the United States, despite research indicating that frequent use may become problematic for some individuals. Emerging adulthood, a time of identity development, is the most common time for cannabis use. Cannabis self-concept, or one’s identification with cannabis as part of their personality or identity, is one factor that may influence use behavior. This study extends previous research that reported a link between self-concept, motivational factors, and normative beliefs by evaluating relationships between cannabis self-concept, motives for use, motivation to change, perceived descriptive norms, as well as cannabis-related outcomes (use, using alone, and cannabis-related problems). Emerging adults who used cannabis in the previous month (n=345, 53.9% male, mean age 21.0, 67.5% Non-Latino White) were recruited from a community sample for a health behaviors study. Participants were assessed for explicit cannabis self-concept, frequency of use, problems associated with use, motives for use, motivation to change, and normative beliefs about others’ use. Participants reported using cannabis on an average of 17.9 (SD=11.1) days of the previous month. Correlational analyses revealed that cannabis self-concept was positively associated with frequency of use, use-related problems, several motives for use, descriptive norms, and with using cannabis alone. Multivariate analyses revealed that rates of use, problems, and social and enhancement motives were independently and positively associated (p< .05) with cannabis self-concept, while self-concept was negatively associated with desire to reduce cannabis use. Cannabis self-concept may be a marker for more problematic patterns of use.
