The Weed Study is a text-based intervention to reduce cannabis use among emerging adults with cannabis use disorder. In this intervention, participants receive several individualized texts per day to help them reduce cannabis use.
This study is a five-year, multi-site project with the University of Tennessee, funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Among the interesting questions that this project will be able to test is whether intervention effects from a cannabis misuse intervention differ between a state with legalized adult retail use (i.e., Colorado) and a state without legalized adult retail use (i.e., Tennessee).
