Tim Grigsby, Andrea Lopez (both Social and Behavioral Health), and colleagues authored a manuscript titled, "A Scoping Review of Risk and Protective Factors for Negative Cannabis Use Consequences" in the journal Substance Abuse: Research and Treatment.
Numerous reviews have examined risk and protective factors for alcohol-related negative consequences, but no equivalent review of risk and protective factors exists for cannabis-related negative consequences (CRNCs) — a gap filled by the present study. This scoping review examined survey-based research of risk and protective factors for CRNCs such as neglecting responsibilities, blacking out, or needing more cannabis.
Lopez is a graduate student.
