Gone with the Weed: Incidents of Adolescent Marijuana Use in the United States, 1976-2021

CONCLUSIONS: The incidence rates of marijuana use among at-risk students, especially those from disadvantaged families, remained high over the study period. The modified Poisson (mixture) approach serves as the preferred tool for modeling GRC responses. It is essential to distinguish among risk, at-risk incidence, and overall incidence when assessing substance use and other risky behaviors.PMID:37839727 | DOI:10.1016/j.annepidem.2023.10.002
