SSDP – Effects of Marijuana Legalization in Washington State on Norms, Use and Parenting

Project Description

The goal of this study is to investigate marijuana legalization in Washington State and its association with changes in marijuana norms, patterns of marijuana use, and use of other substances. The study examines the moderating role of environmental factors and adult functioning, and assesses marijuana-specific parenting behaviors in order to inform prevention efforts. The study augments data from a Seattle-based longitudinal cohort with new marijuana-focused measures at age 39.
