Note. Intention measured on 1–4 scale; attitude recoded to −3 to + 3 scale; belief scales recoded to −2 to + 2 scales. For intention and attitude higher scores indicate a more favorable position towards marijuana use. For beliefs about costs and positive outcomes, higher scores reflect a higher perceived likelihood that marijuana leads to the particular outcome.
