Newest firstImportance The primary psychoactive compound in cannabis, ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) induces intoxication and functional impairment, raising safety concerns in driving. The traditional impairment detection method, behavioral field sobriety tests (FSTs), are subject to bias. Objective To determine whether resting-state functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) can detect THC-related impairment with greater a…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Neurodevelopmental models regard impulsivity as a central risk factor for adolescent substance use. However, the practical utility of impulsivity in predicting substance use is complicated by variability among measures that encompass multiple methods and theoretical domains. Prior research has been constrained by cross-sectional designs, small sample sizes, and/or the use of a narrow subset of impulsivi…
Open article record in new tab ↗Objective Sexual diverse (SD) and gender diverse (GD) youth are at increased risk for adverse mental health outcomes compared to heterosexual/cisgender youth (HC). In this study, we aimed to examine youth risk profiles. We hypothesized that there would be a synergistic effect of SD+GD on mental health outcomes. Method In 2022, a total of 23,915 adolescents in grades 6 to 12 from 60 schools completed the voluntary,…
Open article record in new tab ↗Neural states of impairment from intoxicating substances, including cannabis, are poorly understood. Cannabinoid 1 receptors, the main target of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary intoxicating cannabinoid in cannabis, are densely localized within prefrontal cortex; therefore, prefrontal brain regions are key locations to examine brain changes that characterize acute intoxication. We conducted a double-blin…
This cohort study examines the association between medical cannabis product use and exposure to Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol by quantifying levels of their metabolites in urine.
Open article record in new tab ↗Objective Adolescence into young adulthood represents a sensitive period in which brain development significantly diverges by sex. Regular cannabis use by young people is associated with neuropsychological vulnerabilities, but the potential impact of sex on these relationships is unclear. Method In a cross-sectional study, we examined sex differences in multi-domain neuropsychological functioning using the Cambrid…
