DSM-5: Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders; CUD: Cannabis Use Disorder; Motives were measured with the Marijuana Motives Measure; CCSM: Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure; CI bca: Confidence Interval bias corrected accelerated; SE: Standard Error); 95% CI based on bootstrapping 5000 replications. BS10: Bayes factor likelihood H1 relative to H01 with default priors of including all other measures to the null model. Bold regression results refer to significant effects with at least moderate Bayesian evidence support.
