Survey question: How much of the marijuana or marijuana products that you bought over the past 30 days did you yourself consume?
Survey question: Thinking about the past month, how does the amount of marijuana that you have shared with others compare with the amounts others have shared with you? Did you share more with others than they shared with you, share less with others than they shared with you, or was it about the same amount?
In the main analysis, 20% increase or decrease is used to quantify “received more from others” or “shared more with others”, respectively. For example, assuming a person reporting 100 grams of marijuana usual purchase, and reporting “about half” of the purchase was self-consumed, and “shared more with others”. The adjusted quantity accounting for proportion of self-consumption and sharing with others would be 50%+(1−50%)*(1−20%)=90% i.e. 90 grams. In another scenario, assuming still reporting “about half”, but “received more from others”, the quantity would be 50%*(1−50%)*(1+20%)=110%, i.e. 110 grams.
Two types of sensitivity analysis was performed, using 10% or 30% increase/decrease to quantify “received more from others”/“shared more with others” separately.
