Newest firstImportance Substance use is a leading cause of burden of disease worldwide. Selective prevention programs can help reduce the development of problematic substance use and disorders. Objective To examine effects of a selective, personality-targeted substance use prevention program on alcohol, cannabis, tobacco, nonmedical opioid, and illicit polysubstance use among adolescents with elevated levels of personality tr…
Open article record in new tab ↗Objectives Increasing evidence implicates cannabis consumption as a key risk factor in the development of psychosis, but the mechanisms underpinning this relationship remain understudied. This study proposes to determine whether sleep disruption acts as a mediator of the cannabis-to-psychosis relationship. Study design This longitudinal study assessed measures of cannabis use frequency, sleep quality (SQ), and psy…
Open article record in new tab ↗Introduction There are growing concerns about commonly inflated effect sizes in small neuroimaging studies, yet no study has addressed recalibrating effect size estimates for small samples. To tackle this issue, we propose a hierarchical Bayesian model to adjust the magnitude of single-study effect sizes while incorporating a tailored estimation of sampling variance. Methods We estimated the effect sizes of case-c…
Males and females show different patterns of cannabis use and related psychosocial outcomes. However, the neuroanatomical substrates underlying such differences are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to map sex differences in the neurobiology (as indexed by brain volumes) of dependent and recreational cannabis use. We compared the volume of a priori regions of interest (i.e., amygdala, hippocampus, nucle…
Open article record in new tab ↗Genetic markers of the endocannabinoid system have been linked to a variety of addiction-related behaviors that extend beyond cannabis use. In the current study we investigate the relationship between endocannabinoid (eCB) genetic markers and alcohol use disorder (AUD) in European adolescents (14-18 years old) followed in the IMAGEN study (n = 2,051) and explore replication in a cohort of North American adolescent…
