Heavy blunt use is common among young adult cannabis users, especially African Americans. This exploratory qualitative study aimed to examine how African American young adults understand, talk about and experience their blunt use. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with adults reporting daily or almost daily blunt use in the past month ( = 20; 75% male). Thematic analysis of the audio-recorded interviews revealed aspects of how blunts are described, made and used among heavy blunt users. The three emergent themes have implications for the assessment of cannabis use and intervention development for heavy blunt users.
重度吸食大麻的情况在成年大麻使用者中很常见，尤其是非裔美国人。本探索性定性研究旨在考察非裔美国青年如何理解、谈论和体验他们吸食大麻的行为。对过去一个月内报告每日或几乎每日吸食大麻烟卷（大麻烟卷的一种）的成年人（ = 20；75%为男性）进行了半结构化访谈。对录音访谈的主题分析揭示了重度吸食大麻烟卷者描述、制作和使用大麻烟卷的方式。三个出现的主题对大麻使用评估和重度吸食大麻烟卷者干预措施的制定具有启示意义。
