Description

Overwhelmed with school work, or faced with mental health issues, college students often turn to cannabis and other psychoactive drugs to cope with these stressors. As a result, the misuse and abuse of these substances have become a widespread issue among college students. This cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the tendency of cannabis users of different frequencies toward using certain psychoactive substances.

From this self-reported survey, data on the demographics of participants, as well as the frequency of use of ADHD medications, cannabis, nicotine, and other psychoactive drugs were collected.
