Project Summary/Abstract Despite being one of the largest racial minority groups in the United States (U.S.), Black individuals experience striking health disparities, particularly in terms of cannabis-related outcomes. One possible reason for this is that this Black individuals in the U.S. are disproportionately affected by stressful life conditions, including race- based discrimination, which may lead to higher rates of cannabis use and use-related problems. Racial/ethnic microaggressions (MA) are more commonly experienced than overt discrimination (e.g., hate crimes) among Black individuals, yet almost no research has examined their role in cannabis use, including whether experiencing MAs is temporally proximally related to cannabis use motivation and cannabis use and related problems and whether MAs account for significant and unique variance in these cannabis outcomes. The goal of this R21 project, which is in direct response to PA-20-195, is to elucidate the role of MAs in cannabis use and cannabis use motivation among Black adults using time sampling methodology (over the course of 21 days). Participants (N=100; 50% female) will be Black adults who endorse regular cannabis use. Further, the present proposal will determine whether negative affect (anxiety, depression, anger) in response to MA accounts for the relation between MAs and cannabis use motivations (i.e., greater craving, intention to use, and coping-oriented motives for cannabis use) and use (i.e., greater frequency of cannabis use, and more negative use-related consequences), and test theoretically driven culturally relevant resilience factors, including religiosity, ethnic-racial identity, and positive coping with racial discrimination. This proposal can significantly advance our knowledge of precursors to risky cannabis use and related problems within the Black community and provide critical insight for future prevention and intervention programs. The proposed research project supports the National Institute of Drug Abuse’s strategic plan’s Goal 1: “identify the biological, environmental, behavioral, and social causes and consequences of drug use and addiction across the lifespan.” It is also in line with NIH’s UNITE initiative’s aim to support “new research on health disparities, minority health, and health equity”.

项目概要/摘要 尽管黑人是美国最大的少数族裔群体之一，但黑人仍经历着 显着的健康差异，特别是在与大麻相关的结果方面。造成这种情况的一个可能原因是。 美国的这些黑人不成比例地受到生活压力条件的影响，包括种族- 基于歧视，这可能导致大麻使用率和使用相关问题的增加。 微侵犯 (MA) 比公开歧视（例如仇恨犯罪）更常见 黑人个体，但几乎没有研究考察他们在大麻使用中的作用，包括是否 MA 在时间上与大麻使用动机和大麻使用相关 问题以及 MA 是否解释了这些大麻结果的显着且独特的差异。 该 R21 项目是对 PA-20-195 的直接响应，旨在阐明 MA 在大麻使用中的作用 使用时间抽样方法（在 21 年的过程中）调查黑人成年人的大麻使用动机 参与者（N = 100；50％为女性）将是支持定期使用大麻的黑人成年人。 目前的提案将确定是否会对 MA 产生负面影响（焦虑、抑郁、愤怒） 解释了 MA 与大麻使用动机之间的关系（即更大的渴望、使用意图、 以及大麻使用的应对动机）和使用（即大麻使用频率更高，以及更多） 负面的使用相关后果），并测试理论上驱动的文化相关的弹性因素， 包括宗教信仰、民族认同以及积极应对种族歧视。 显着提高我们对黑人危险大麻使用前体和相关问题的了解 社区并为未来的预防和干预计划提供重要的见解。 该项目支持国家药物滥用研究所战略计划的目标 1：“识别生物、 整个国家吸毒和成瘾的环境、行为和社会原因及后果 这也符合 NIH 的 UNITE 倡议的目标，即支持“关于健康差异的新研究， 少数民族健康和健康公平”。
