Impulsivity Facets, Social Norms, and Co-Use of Alcohol and Cannabis.

Compared to alcohol-only use, co-use of alcohol and cannabis is becoming increasingly more common. Impulsivity and perceived norms are two factors related to increased substance use among young adults, but few studies have examined their role in co-use. The purpose of this study was to examine whether impulsivity facets moderated the associations between perceived norms (descriptive and injunctive) for co-use frequency.

Are my Peers Impulsive? Normative Perceptions of Impulsivity and Associations with Personal Impulsivity and Alcohol Use Outcomes.

Objective: The present study examined whether individuals perceived their peers' impulsivity as different from their own impulsivity and if perceptions of peers' impulsivity moderated the associations between personal impulsivity and alcohol use and consequences.

Participants: Participants were 291 college student drinkers.

Methods: An online survey assessed impulsivity, peer norms of impulsivity, and alcohol use.

ADHD Symptomatology is Associated with Alcohol Use and Consequences via Drinking Norms.

: Research suggests individuals with ADHD are at risk for alcohol use and related problems and are more susceptible to peer influence. Although previous research has focused on the relationship between alcohol use, related problems, and ADHD symptomatology, scant research has examined whether descriptive drinking norms (i.e.

Co-use of alcohol and cannabis: Do social norms relate to personal use and consequences among college students?

The purpose of the present study was to examine (1) differences in descriptive and injunctive norms for alcohol, cannabis, and co-use, (2) whether descriptive and injunctive norms for alcohol, cannabis, and co-use were associated with co-use frequency, and (3) whether co-use descriptive and injunctive norms were associated with co-use consequences. Participants were 209 college students who were required to have engaged in only alcohol, only cannabis, and co-use in the past year. Participants completed an online survey about their substance use.

A pilot study of impulsivity and subjective alcohol response in the lab and moment.

Impulsivity and individual differences in alcohol sensitivity (e.g., subjective response to alcohol) have been related to alcohol use behaviors, but scant research has examined how these two constructs are related to each other.
