The objective of this study was to test indirect effects of the Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO program on college students' frequent marijuana use through decreased use in specific social and academic activities. This study randomly assigned college students who reported frequent marijuana use (i.e., approximately five times per week) in fall 2016 to receive Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO or healthy stress management (HSM) strategies. The final baseline sample included 298 participants. Path analyses tested direct program effects on marijuana use at six-week posttest, as well as the indirect effect via use within four activities frequently participated in by college students: socializing, being physically active, studying, and being in class. Direct Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO effects on reductions in frequent use were transmitted by decreased marijuana use while studying and no use while socializing, being physically active, or in class. Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO may be most effective at reducing use of marijuana among college students while studying.
本研究旨在通过减少特定社会和学术活动中的使用来检验 Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO 项目对大学生频繁使用大麻的间接影响。该研究在 2016 年秋季随机分配了报告频繁使用大麻（即每周约五次）的大学生，让他们接受 Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO 或健康压力管理（HSM）策略。最终的基线样本包括 298 名参与者。路径分析测试了在六周后测时大麻使用的直接项目影响，以及通过大学生经常参加的四项活动中的使用的间接影响：社交、体育活动、学习和上课。通过学习时减少大麻使用以及不参加社交、体育活动、上课来减少频繁使用，从而传递了 Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO 对减少频繁使用的直接影响。 Marijuana e-CHECKUP TO GO 可能在减少大学生学习时使用大麻方面最有效。
