To evaluate participants' perceptions about frequent use and reasons for substance use (SU) in the qualitative interview study, an add-on to the multimodal treatment study of ADHD (MTA).
Using the longitudinal MTA database, 39 ADHD cases and 19 peers with Persistent SU, and 86 ADHD cases and 39 peers without Persistent SU were identified and recruited. In adulthood, an open-ended interview was administered, and SU excerpts were indexed and classified to create subtopics (frequent use and reasons for use of alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs).
For marijuana, the Persistent compared with Nonpersistent SU group had a significantly higher percentage of participants describing frequent use and giving reasons for use, and the ADHD group compared with the group of peers had a significantly higher percentage giving "stability" as a reason for use.
Motivations for persistent marijuana use may differ for adults with and without a history of ADHD.
评估参与者对物质使用(SU)频繁使用和使用原因的看法,这是注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)多模式治疗研究(MTA)的补充内容。
利用纵向 MTA 数据库,确定并招募了 39 例 ADHD 病例和 19 例持续性 SU 同龄者,以及 86 例 ADHD 病例和 39 例无持续性 SU 同龄者。在成年期,进行了开放式访谈,并对 SU 摘录进行索引和分类,以创建子主题(酒精、大麻和其他药物的频繁使用和使用原因)。
对于大麻,持续性 SU 组与非持续性 SU 组相比,有更高比例的参与者描述了频繁使用和使用原因,而 ADHD 组与同龄者相比,有更高比例的参与者将“稳定”作为使用原因。
有和没有 ADHD 病史的成年人持续使用大麻的动机可能不同。
