Subjective responses to simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use relative to alcohol-only use and cannabis-only use: An ecological momentary assessment investigation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few studies have examined subjective responses to simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use in naturalistic settings. The current study used ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to compare subjective responses between simultaneous use and both alcohol-only use and cannabis-only use sessions, while also examining the moderating role of quantities of alcohol and cannabis consumed at both the session and person levels.

Young adults (N = 149, 59.73% women) reporting recent simultaneous use completed three 21-day EMA bursts, spaced 6 months apart. Participants completed a survey each time they initiated a new session of alcohol or cannabis use, along with two hourly follow-up surveys. Surveys assessed alcohol use (quantities), cannabis use (quantities, forms of ca
