Early onset of cannabis use: Does personality modify the relation with changes in perceived parental involvement?
2015, Drug and Alcohol DependenceIs parental socio-economic status related to the initiation of substance abuse by young people in an English city? An event history analysis
2012, Social Science and MedicineCitation Excerpt :Participants were asked about a range of substances as stated at the outset, but the focus in the following is on alcohol, tobacco and cannabis use. While self-report has its limits (see e.g., Stanton, McClelland, Elwood, Ferry, & Silva, 1996) which may be exacerbated with cannabis because of its effect on recall (Solowij, 1998), all responses were recorded confidentially and stored in anonymous records, which has been shown to improve the veracity, if not the accuracy, of reporting (Murray & Perry, 1987). As might be expected from a random sample, the gender ratio is 50:50 male-to-female, which is representative of the general population.
DRD2 and DRD4 in relation to regular alcohol and cannabis use among adolescents: Does parenting modify the impact of genetic vulnerability? The TRAILS study
2011, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :Second, although confidentiality of the study had been emphasized, self-reports of substance use may be subject to over- or underreporting of alcohol and cannabis use. However, previous research has concluded that, when anonymity is assured, self-report measures of substance use have acceptable reliability (Murray and Perry, 1987). Third, the parenting scales that were used in this study were only available at T1, on average 5 years before the assessment of regular alcohol and cannabis use.
