E158 - The Kids are Alright with Luis Segura & Silvia Martins
Recreational cannabis legalization means tons more teenagers will start using the drug right? That prevailing myth and other interesting trends were examined by Luis Segura, Silva Martins and their team from the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health.In the USA, cannabis legalization happens state by state, and not all at the same time. That provided the perfect environment for the researchers to see what happened after a state legalized and use the states that didn't legalize as a control.Our intrepid team found cannabis use didn't increase among teens, it did increase amongst women and the rate of cannabis use disorder didn't change post legalization. Come have a listen to these and other myth-busting revelations from their analysis.Luis E.
