Abstract
The current study investigated the relationship between avoidant personality traits and cannabis use-related consequences. Participants (N = 438) were U.S. adults who completed cross-sectional measures. A negative binomial regression indicated use intensity, disinhibition, and anxiousness significantly predict cannabis use-related consequences. These findings may have important implications for prevention and treatment.
