TABLE 4.
Cumulative Logistic Regression Models Explaining Frequency of Marijuana Use, Adjusting for All Other Covariates
Frequency of Lifetime Use | Frequency of Last-Year Use | Frequency of Last 30-Day Use | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
AOR | (95% CI) | AOR | (95% CI) | AOR | (95% CI) | |
Favor for Marijuana Policy | ||||||
It Should be a Crime | 1.00 | 1.00 | 1.00 | |||
It Should be Entirely Legal | 6.92*** | (5.80, 8.25) | 9.49*** | (7.57, 11.89) | 14.39*** | (9.66, 21.41) |
It Should be a Minor Violation | 2.86*** | (2.40, 3.41) | 3.75*** | (2.99, 4.71) | 5.52*** | (3.68, 8.27) |
Don't Know | 1.50*** | (1.20, 1.87) | 1.80*** | (1.36, 2.38) | 2.78*** | (1.73, 4.47) |

Adults Only | 1.23** | (1.08, 1.40) | 1.29*** | (1.11, 1.49) | 1.32** | (1.10, 1.59) |
Yes, Anyone | 1.42*** | (1.18, 1.70) | 1.70*** | (1.39, 2.07) | 2.12*** | (1.68, 2.68) |
Don't Know | 1.12 | (0.93, 1.35) | 1.23* | (1.00, 1.51) | 1.17 | (0.90, 1.53) |
Note. All findings are adjusted for covariates in previous models: cohort, age, sex, race, population density, political affiliation, religiosity, parent education, lifetime cigarette use, 30-day alcohol use and friend disapproval of marijuana use. 30-day marijuana use was not included as marijuana frequency was the outcome variable. The models also included missing data indicators. Model results derived using the case-complete dataset (without missing data) were nearly identical.
