OBJECTIVE Cannabis use motives and craving are associated with increased risk for cannabis-related problems and are ideal targets for prevention and early intervention. Patterns of motives and craving reactivity to cannabis cues differ by sex; however, few studies closely examine the relationship between motives and craving and how it may differ by valence (±) across men and women. METHOD The present study used Cue Reactivity Ecological Momentary Assessment to assess reward (+) and relief (-) craving four semirandom times per day for 2 weeks in a sample of 63 emerging adults (age 18-21; 54% cisgender women; 85.7% White) who frequently use cannabis (≥ 3 times per week). We assessed craving before and after exposure to brief neutral or cannabis image cues and examined within- and between-participant effects of cue type, motives, sex/gender, and their interactions, on postcue cannabis craving. RESULTS Regardless of cue type, women with high coping motives (-) reported less postcue relief (-) craving, and men with high enhancement motives (+) reported more postcue reward (+) craving. High enhancement motives (+), regardless of sex/gender, were associated with elevated relief (-) craving reactivity to cannabis cues, and women with high coping motives (-) reported elevated reward (+) craving reactivity to cannabis cues. CONCLUSIONS Sex/gender differences in the relationships between cannabis motives and craving reactivity indicate the value of a more targeted examination of valence (±) of craving experiences in addition to motives for use. Higher levels of precision may better inform interventions for emerging adults at risk for experiencing cannabis-related problems. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).

新兴成年人日常生活中大麻使用动机与大麻渴望之间关系的性别差异。

目标 大麻使用动机和渴望与大麻相关问题的风险增加有关，是预防和早期干预的理想目标。动机模式和对大麻线索的渴望反应因性别而异；然而，很少有研究仔细研究动机和渴望之间的关系，以及男女之间的效价 (±) 之间的差异。方法 本研究使用提示反应性生态瞬时评估，在 63 名新生成年人（18-21 岁；54% 顺性别女性；85.7%）的样本中，连续两周每天半随机四次评估奖励（+）和缓解（-）渴望。白人）经常使用大麻（每周≥3次）。我们评估了暴露于短暂的中性或大麻图像线索之前和之后的渴望，并检查了线索类型、动机、性别及其相互作用对参与者内部和参与者之间的影响，对线索后大麻渴望的影响。结果 无论提示类型如何，具有高应对动机 (-) 的女性报告较少的提示后缓解 (-) 渴望，而具有高增强动机 (+) 的男性报告较多的提示后奖励 (+) 渴望。无论性别如何，高增强动机（+）与对大麻线索的缓解（-）渴望反应性升高有关，具有高应对动机（-）的女性报告对大麻线索的奖励（+）渴望反应性升高。结论 大麻动机和渴望反应性之间关系的性别差异表明，除了使用动机之外，对渴望体验的效价（±）进行更有针对性的检查的价值。更高的精确度可以更好地为面临大麻相关问题风险的新兴成年人提供干预措施。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2023 APA，保留所有权利）。
