Abstract

Cannabis Dependence remains a highly prevalent disorder in the United States. Though longitudinal studies have accumulated data regarding risk factors and psychosocial correlates of habitual cannabis use, the field lacks knowledge regarding predictors of recovery in community samples. Thus we conducted a secondary data analysis of The National Epidemiological Survey on Alcohol and Related Conditions to address this issue. Recovery was defined as the absence of Cannabis Dependence and Cannabis Abuse during the past year. Logistic Regression analysis revealed that older age, marriage, and non-daily cannabis use were positively associated with recovery.
