Note: The MJ+ category was defined without regard for ALC dependence; 27 individuals were dependent on both ALC and MJ.

1

Both the MJ+ group and the ALC+MJ- group are significantly different from the ALC-MJ- group (p<.05), but are not significantly different from each other.

2

The MJ+ group is significantly different from the ALC-MJ- group (p<.05).
