Abstract

The objective was to analyze the changes in cannabis use during lockdown considering sex, age, living situation and level of addiction. This descriptive and non-probabilistic study used a convenience sample of 208 participants with ages between 18-57 years (64.3% men; mean age = 31.39 years), that reported consuming cannabis. The frequency of distinct typologies of cannabis use was analyzed and the level of addiction with the Cannabis Abuse Screening Test (CAST). An online survey was used to collect the variables under study. A total of 25% consumers increased their spliff (marijuana mixed with tobacco) consumption, 11.9% increased their joint (marijuana cigarette) consumption and 11.8% increased their hashish spliff consumption. Men had higher levels of cannabis addiction, however, during lockdown they reduced their marijuana spliff consumption while both men and women increased their joint consumption. Marijuana spliff consumption showed a greater increase in the 25-29 age group, in those living with people other than relatives or a partner, alone, or with a partner and was reduced mainly in those living with parents or other relatives. The living alone 18-24 years old group, and the living with parents 35-44 years old group showed higher levels of cannabis addiction (CAST). The rate of dependent consumers who increased their marijuana spliff consumption (49%) doubled compared to consumers with no addiction and moderate addiction. Regarding joints, consumption was 1.5 times higher than for moderate addiction consumers and three times higher than those with no addiction. The risk of cannabis addiction increased in certain groups during lockdown.

根据性别、年龄、生活状况和成瘾程度,COVID-19 封锁期间西班牙消费者使用大麻的变化情况。
研究的目的是根据性别、年龄、生活状况和成瘾程度,分析在禁闭期间大麻使用情况的变化。这项描述性和非概率性研究采用方便抽样法,抽样对象为 208 名报告吸食大麻的 18-57 岁参与者(64.3% 为男性;平均年龄 = 31.39 岁)。通过大麻滥用筛查测试(CAST)分析了不同类型大麻的使用频率和成瘾程度。研究采用在线调查的方式收集变量。共有 25% 的消费者增加了芨芨草(大麻与烟草混合)的消费量,11.9% 的消费者增加了大麻卷烟的消费量,11.8% 的消费者增加了大麻芨芨草的消费量。男性吸食大麻成瘾的比例较高,但在禁闭期间,他们减少了大麻芨芨草的消费,而男性和女性都增加了大麻卷烟的消费。在 25-29 岁年龄组、与亲戚或伴侣以外的人同住、单独居住或与伴侣同住的人中,大麻烟片的消费量增幅较大,而与父母或其他亲戚同住的人则主要减少了大麻烟片的消费量。18-24 岁独居群体和 35-44 岁与父母同住群体的大麻成瘾程度较高(CAST)。与没有成瘾和中度成瘾的消费者相比,依赖性消费者增加大麻芨芨草消费量的比例(49%)增加了一倍。至于大麻大麻烟,消费量是中度成瘾者的 1.5 倍,是无成瘾者的三倍。在封锁期间,某些群体吸食大麻成瘾的风险增加。
