INTRODUCTION There is concern that recreational marijuana legalization (RML) may lead to increased cannabis use disorder (CUD) among youth due to increased marijuana use. This study investigates whether adolescent substance use disorder treatment admissions for marijuana use increased in Colorado and Washington following RML. METHODS Annual data on 2008-2017 treatment admissions for marijuana use from the SAMHSA TEDS-A dataset for adolescents age 12-17 were used to model state treatment admissions trends. Difference-in-differences models were used to investigate whether treatment admissions increased following RML in Colorado/Washington compared to non-RML states, after adjusting for socioeconomic characteristics and treatment availability. RESULTS Over all states in the analysis, the rate of adolescent treatment admissions for marijuana use declined significantly over the study period (β=-3.375, 95 % CI=-4.842, -1.907), with the mean rate falling nearly in half. The decline in admissions rate was greater in Colorado and Washington compared to non-RML states following RML, though this difference was not significant (β=-7.671, 95 % CI=-38.798, 23.456). CONCLUSION Adolescent treatment admissions for marijuana use did not increase in Colorado and Washington following RML. This may be because youth marijuana use did not increase, CUD did not increase (even if use did increase), or treatment seeking behaviors changed due to shifts in attitudes and perceptions of risk towards marijuana use.

科罗拉多州和华盛顿州的娱乐合法化后,青少年接受大麻治疗。

引言令人关注的是,休闲大麻合法化(RML)可能会因大麻使用增加而导致年轻人中的大麻使用障碍(CUD)增加。这项研究调查了RML之后,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州青少年使用大麻的物质滥用障碍治疗入院人数是否增加。方法使用SAMHSA TEDS-A数据集(12至17岁青少年)的2008-2017年大麻使用治疗入院年度数据来建立州治疗入院趋势的模型。在调整了社会经济特征和治疗可用性之后,使用差异差异模型调查了科罗拉多州/华盛顿州的RML治疗后与非RML状态相比治疗入院率是否增加。结果在分析的所有状态下,在研究期间,接受大麻的青少年治疗入院率显着下降(β= -3.375,95%CI = -4.842,-1.907),平均比率下降了近一半。与RML之后的非RML州相比,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州的入学率下降幅度更大,尽管这一差异并不明显(β= -7.671,95%CI = -38.798,23.456)。结论在RML之后,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州青少年使用大麻的治疗入院率没有增加。这可能是因为青少年使用大麻没有增加,CUD没有增加(即使使用增加了),或者由于态度和对使用大麻的风险的感知发生了变化,寻求治疗的行为也发生了变化。与RML之后的非RML州相比,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州的入学率下降幅度更大,尽管这一差异并不明显(β= -7.671,95%CI = -38.798,23.456)。结论在RML之后,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州青少年使用大麻的治疗入院率没有增加。这可能是因为青少年使用大麻没有增加,CUD没有增加(即使使用增加了),或者由于态度和对使用大麻的风险的感知发生了变化,寻求治疗的行为也发生了变化。与RML之后的非RML州相比,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州的入学率下降幅度更大,尽管这一差异并不明显(β= -7.671,95%CI = -38.798,23.456)。结论在RML之后,科罗拉多州和华盛顿州青少年使用大麻的治疗入院率没有增加。这可能是因为青少年使用大麻没有增加,CUD没有增加(即使使用增加了),或者由于态度和对使用大麻的风险的感知发生了变化,寻求治疗的行为也发生了变化。
