The Marijuana Consequences Questionnaire (MACQ) is a 50-item self-report measure modeled after the Young Adult Alcohol Consequences Questionnaire (YAACQ). College students (n=315) completed questionnaires online. A confirmatory factor analysis supported the hypothesized 8-factor structure. The results indicate good convergent and discriminant validity of the MACQ. A brief, unidimensional, 21-item version (B-MACQ) was developed by a Rasch model. Comparison of item severity estimates of the B-MACQ items and the corresponding items from the YAACQ indicates that the severity of alcohol- and marijuana-problems is defined by a relatively unique pattern of consequences. The MACQ and B-MACQ provide promising new alternatives to assessing marijuana-related problems.
大麻后果问卷(MACQ)是一种 50 项自我报告的测量工具,其模型是基于青少年酒精后果问卷(YAACQ)。大学生(n=315)在线完成了问卷。验证性因子分析支持假设的 8 因素结构。结果表明,MACQ 具有良好的聚合和区分效度。通过 Rasch 模型开发了一个简短的、一维的、21 项的版本(B-MACQ)。B-MACQ 项目和 YAACQ 中相应项目的严重程度估计的比较表明,酒精和大麻问题的严重程度是由相对独特的后果模式定义的。MACQ 和 B-MACQ 为评估大麻相关问题提供了有前途的新选择。
