Note.
A subset of participants answered these items (given late addition of measures). All participants in this subset endorsed current or past cannabis use.
N = 267 (total); N = 104 (men); N = 163 (women). CUDIT sum scores calculated for those with past year cannabis use and no missing CUDIT items.
Missing column reflects missing datapoints due to participants electing to skip that item. Denominators for percentages account for this.
Items administered to all participants that endorsed current or past cannabis use.
Frequency represents scores of ‘somewhat’ to ‘strongly’ agree and Mean represents average of full response scale (i.e., 1–6).
“All Students” = M, SD for all students that reported cannabis use. “Receptive Students” = M, SD among those that were receptive (i.e., scoring ≥4 on receptiveness scale).
Sex differences reflect differences between the “all students” for men and women.
