“…As cannabis behaviors and dependence are known to be impacted by a confluence of factors (Tepe, Dalrymple, & Zimmerman, 2012), the co-occurrence of peer encouragement (in the form of peer descriptive norms) and the absence of parent prohibition (in the form of low parent injunctive norms) may be especially problematic. Thus, understanding how peer descriptive norms and parent injunctive norms synergistically relate to influence cannabis outcomes is an important next step.…”

Objectives Cannabis users, especially socially anxious cannabis users, are influenced by perceptions of other’s use. The present study tested whether social anxiety interacted with perceptions about peer and parent beliefs to predict cannabis-related problems. Methods Participants were 148 (36.5% female, 60.1% non-Hispanic Caucasian) current cannabis users aged 18–36 (M = 21.01, SD = 3.09) who completed measures of perceived descriptive and injunctive norms, social anxiety, and cannabis use behaviors. Hierarchical multiple regressions were employed to investigate the predictive value of the social anxiety × parent injunctive norms × peer norms interaction terms on cannabis use behaviors. Results Higher social anxiety was associated with more cannabis problems. A three-way interaction emerged between social anxiety, parent injunctive norms, and peer descriptive norms, with respect to cannabis problems. Social anxiety was positively related to more cannabis problems when parent injunctive norms were high (i.e., perceived approval) and peer descriptive norms were low. Results further showed that social anxiety was positively related to more cannabis problems regardless of parent injunctive norms. Conclusions The present work suggest that it may be important to account for parent influences when addressing normative perceptions among young adult cannabis users. Additional research is needed to determine whether interventions incorporating feedback regarding parent norms impacts cannabis use frequency and problems.

“…Although previous studies have reported an association between social anxiety and cannabis use in young adults (Buckner, Bonn-Miller, Zvolensky, & Schmidt, 2007;Buckner, Crosby, Wonderlicht, & Schmidt, 2012;Tepe, Dalrymple, & Zimmerman, 2012), its nature is still unclear. The impact of this frequent and invasive disorder on cannabis initiation among adolescents, in relationship with personal/social context variables, remains to be clarified.…”

This study identified protective and risk factors of cannabis use initiation, including expectancies and social anxiety. A questionnaire was completed twice by 877 teenagers. Logistic regressions, mediation and moderation analyses were performed. Significant risk factors were alcohol use, peer users, perceptual enhancement, and craving expectancies. Protective factors were negative behavior expectancies and social anxiety. Social anxiety protected from initiation through the mediating role of perceptual enhancement and craving expectancies, whatever the role of peer users and alcohol use. Findings are discussed in terms of risk and protection, in an overall approach including internalizing factors. Results support the identification of an internalizing profile of adolescents for prevention or treatment and the importance of social anxiety and expectancies in intervention.
