Typology of Canadian adult cannabis users following legalization.
Typologies are useful to make sense of the heterogeneity in substance users, but most cannabis user typologies to date have focused on youth or were conducted in the broader context of illegal cannabis use.

The purpose of the current study is to examine if subgroups of Canadian adult cannabis users can be defined based on cannabis use patterns as well as mental health variables, and if they differ in negative cannabis-related outcomes. A total of 361 past year cannabis users (M = 27.55 years, SD = 10.60) completed measures assessing substance use, mental health symptoms, and cannabis-related negative outcomes. Three clusters of cannabis users emerged, characterized by increasing intensity of cannabis use, which were associated with differences in cannabis-related outcomes. Like the Risk Need Responsivity Model of criminal behavior, cannabis users differ in their needs and the intensity of treatment should be matched accordingly. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
