INTRODUCTION
Negative emotional reactivity and the neighborhood environment have been individually associated with marijuana use outcomes; however, less is known about whether neighborhood factors differentiate the association between negative emotional reactivity and marijuana use. The present study examined whether neighborhood risk (i.e., neighborhood problems) and protective factors (i.e., neighborhood social cohesion) moderated the relation between negative emotional reactivity and marijuana use during early adolescence.
METHODS
Participants were 775 adolescents (M = 10.95 ± 0.88 years; 69% male; 76% Caucasian), who reported on their past month frequency of marijuana use at Time 1 (when adolescents were 10-12 years old) and Time 2 (when adolescents were 12-14 years old). Mothers reported on neighborhood problems and neighborhood social cohesion at Time 1. Youth reported on their negative emotional reactivity at Time 2.
RESULTS
Negative binomial regression analyses indicated that neighborhood problems moderated the relationship between negative emotional reactivity and marijuana use. In particular, in the context of low neighborhood problems, individuals with lower negative emotional reactivity were at attenuated risk for marijuana use compared to individuals higher in negative emotional reactivity. In the context of high neighborhood problems, individuals were at heightened risk for marijuana consumption regardless of their negative emotional reactivity levels.
CONCLUSIONS
Findings suggest that individual-level factors alone do not sufficiently account for early marijuana use and that neighborhood problems play a role in risk for or abstention from using marijuana during early adolescence. Implications for prevention and intervention for marijuana use during adolescence are discussed.
介绍
负面情绪反应和邻里环境都与大麻使用结果有关；然而，人们对邻里因素是否会影响负面情绪反应与大麻使用之间的关系知之甚少。本研究探讨了邻里风险（即邻里问题）和保护因素（即邻里社会凝聚力）是否调节了青少年早期负面情绪反应与大麻使用之间的关系。
方法
参与者为 775 名青少年（M=10.95±0.88 岁；69%为男性；76%为白种人），他们在第 1 次（青少年 10-12 岁时）和第 2 次（青少年 12-14 岁时）报告了过去一个月大麻使用的频率。母亲在第 1 次报告邻里问题和邻里社会凝聚力。青少年在第 2 次报告他们的负面情绪反应。
结果
负二项回归分析表明，邻里问题调节了负面情绪反应与大麻使用之间的关系。具体来说，在邻里问题低的情况下，与负面情绪反应高的个体相比，负面情绪反应低的个体大麻使用的风险降低。在邻里问题高的情况下，无论个体的负面情绪反应水平如何，他们使用大麻的风险都增加了。
结论
研究结果表明，个体水平的因素并不能充分解释青少年早期大麻使用情况，邻里问题在青少年早期大麻使用或戒除的风险中起作用。讨论了针对青少年大麻使用的预防和干预的意义。
