“…11,12 However, previous studies have shown that the correlation between cannabis use intention and subsequent behaviour can range from 0.39 to 0.84, and it is affected by attitudes and subjective norms (perceived social pressure). [34][35][36][37][38] The 2014 US study also found that those who did not use cannabis but experienced anxiety were more interested in trying cannabis if use was legalized. 33 Although some studies have reported an association between cannabis use and the development of schizophrenia, depressive disorders and increased suicidal ideation, attempts and completion, management of psychiatric disorders is also one of the top reasons cited for cannabis use.…”

A ccording to the 2017 Canadian Tobacco Alcohol and Drugs Survey, 15% of Canadians aged 15 years and older reported using cannabis in the past year, the same percentage as for current cigarette use. 1 Approximately 78% of respondents reported consuming alcohol in the past year and 24% reported heavy drinking. 1 Overall, substance use was highest among males aged 20-24 years. 1 There is substantial evidence that cannabis use is associated with motor vehicle collisions, decreased birthweight (if consumed during pregnancy), chronic bronchitis episodes (if cannabis is inhaled), psychotic symptoms and disorders, and cannabis addiction. 2-6 The lifetime risk of cannabis abuse (recurrent use) or dependence (symptoms of tolerance and withdrawal) among Canadians was 6.8% in 2012, and 1.3% of Canadians met criteria for cannabis abuse or dependence in the past year. 6 Moreover, the potency of illicit cannabis increased from 4% in 1995 to 12% in 2014, with higher potency associated with increased risk of adverse health outcomes. 7-11 In general, people who use cannabis more frequently and at a younger age are at higher risk for harm. 11,12 In an effort to promote responsible use, deter criminal activity and protect public health and safety, the federal government legalized nonmedical use of cannabis on Oct. 17, 2018. 13 Cannabis use for medical purposes has been legal in Canada since 2001. 14 The evidence from the United States

“…Values of Cronbach's alpha greater than 0.8 were considered to indicate good internal consistency, but smaller actual values entailed no consequences on possible discharge of scales or sub-scales. Reported values for some original CUIQ sub-scales were smaller than 0.8 [60].…”

Health professionals are regarded as important sources of information and guidance for healthy living. Knowing health determinants and risks, and invested with credibility in society, many struggle with their own human limits to apply these principles. A cross-sectional study was conducted among advanced medical students to assess their attitude towards recreational cannabis consumption, intention to use it, and their opinion of its legal status. Secondary objectives were to explore the relation of these primary outcomes to: (a) potentially addictive habits (such as smoking and drinking); (b) individuals’ disturbances in self-organization (DSOs), defined in the ICD-11 as pervasive chronic effects of traumatic experiences or stressful events. An anonymous online questionnaire active in November 2022 collected data from 171 medical students, of which almost 56% were in favor of recreational cannabis legalization. In a logistic regression analysis, each additional point of own consumption intention (on a scale from 1 to 5) was found to increase the odds of a positive opinion of legalization by three times, when controlling for gender, age, smoking, drinking, onset age of smoking, and DSO: OR = 2.918, 95%CI (1.893–4.497). In conclusion, health professionals’ personal beliefs and practices regarding substance use have a significant subjective component.

“…Por otro lado, la prueba ha logrado mostrar evidencias de validez de criterio al encontrarse niveles más bajos de autoeficacia para el rechazo en quienes consumieron alguna vez y en quienes probarían si tuvieran la oportunidad, lo cual se alinea con investigaciones previas que encuentran relación entre la autoeficacia, el consumo y la intención de consumo (D'Amico et al, 2020;Lopez-Quintero & Neumark, 2015;Morell-Gomis et al, 2019); dicha relación con la intención también es hallada por las autoras originales (Carpenter & Howard, 2009). Asimismo, se muestra un mayor nivel de autoeficacia entre ISSN (Digital): 2223-7666 Liberabit, 2021, 27(2), e434 (julio -diciembre) aquellos que reportaron haber rechazado ofertas de consumo, lo cual demuestra que la escala es capaz de distinguir a aquellos que muestran dicha conducta.…”

“…Asimismo, diversas investigaciones encuentran que la autoeficacia respecto al consumo está asociada con la intención de consumir y al consumo en sí mismo (D'Amico et al, 2020;Lopez-Quintero & Neumark, 2015;Morell-Gomis et al, 2019), y puede mediar entre la impulsividad y el uso de marihuana (Papinczak et al, 2018). Además, está asociada a una menor percepción de daño por su uso (Zullig & Valois, 2017).…”

Adaptación de la subescala de marihuana de la escala de Autoeficacia para el Rechazo del Consumo de Drogas (DURSE) en adolescentes

Antecedentes: la autoeficacia es un factor relevante en el consumo de drogas y existe una necesidad de contar con instrumentos de medición para la investigación adaptados en el Perú. La escala de Autoeficacia para el Rechazo del Consumo de Drogas (DURSE, por sus siglas en inglés; Carpenter, 2006) es un instrumento útil para medir este aspecto en diferentes situaciones sociales. Objetivo: evaluar las propiedades psicométricas de validez y confiabilidad de la subescala de marihuana de la escala DURSE en escolares de colegios nacionales de Lima. Método: se tradujo la escala y se sometió a un piloto con 83 adolescentes. La versión final fue aplicada a una muestra de 1015 estudiantes de secundaria. Resultados: el análisis factorial confirmatorio demostró una estructura unifactorial con buen ajuste (CFI = .990; TLI = .986; RMSEA = .057; SRMR = .015) y se obtuvo una alta confiabilidad (.98). Se analizó la invarianza según sexo del participante, encontrándose invarianza escalar, pero no métrica. Se obtuvieron mayores niveles de autoeficacia en quienes no habían consumido marihuana, no tenían intención de probar, y rechazaron ofertas de consumo. Conclusiones: la subescala de marihuana de la escala DURSE es un instrumento idóneo para medir la autoeficacia para el rechazo de consumo de marihuana en adolescentes de Lima.
