这项研究旨在评估医用大麻合法化对加州和其他州选定社区的青少年和年轻人的毒品相关态度和使用的影响。电话调查数据,收集作为罗伯特·伍德约翰逊基金会的反击倡议的研究的一部分,被用来检查报告的态度和使用药物在加州和其他国家之前和之后,加利福尼亚州通过215号提案在1996年。描述性,双变量和逻辑回归分析被用来检查的态度和使用之间的16至25奥尔兹的加州和其他10个州。这项研究发现,尽管1995年至1999年期间一些与大麻有关的态度发生了变化,但使用大麻的情况并没有增加。这些发现表明,最近的政策变化对大麻相关行为的影响很小。
This study was designed to assess the affect of legalization of medical marijuana on drug-related attitudes and use among youths and young adults in selected communities in California and other states. Telephone survey data, collected as part of a study of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Fighting Back initiative, was utilized to examine reported attitudes about and use of drugs in California and other states before and after Californians passed Proposition 215 in 1996. Descriptive, bivariate, and logistic regression analyses were used to examine attitudes and use among 16 to 25 year olds in California and 10 other states. This study found that although some marijuana-related attitudes changed between 1995 and 1999, use did not increase. These findings suggest that recent policy changes have had little impact on marijuana-related behavior.
