Sleep-Related Cannabis Expectancy Questionnaire (SR-CEQ): Factor Analysis Replication, Internal Reliability, and Construct Validity.

Expectancies regarding the sleep-promoting effects of cannabis may exacerbate the propensity to self-medicate sleep problems with cannabis. Given the potential clinical importance of expectancies for the sedative effects of cannabis, Goodhines et al (2020) developed the Sleep-Related Cannabis Expectancies Questionnaire (SR-CEQ). However, concurrent validity of this instrument has not been evaluated.

Absolute and relative e-cigarette harm perceptions among young adult lesbian and bisexual women and nonbinary people assigned female at birth.

Purpose: Young adult lesbian and bisexual women report considerable e-cigarette disparities, which may be attributed to low harm perceptions. No studies have assessed differences in e-cigarette harm perceptions in this group, nor which factors might be intervention targets to influence harm perceptions.

Materials And Methods: We investigated differences in and modifiable correlates of e-cigarette harm perceptions among young adult lesbian and bisexual women and non-binary people assigned female at birth.

E-Cigarette Use among Sexual Minoritized Women and Nonbinary People Assigned Female at Birth: Assessing the Roles of Discrimination, Perceived Stress, and Social Support.

Young adult sexual minoritized women (SMW) are at disproportionate risk for e-cigarette use, which may in part be due to excess minority stress imposed by discrimination exposure. While discrimination exposure is associated with risk for combustible tobacco/nicotine use among SMW, similar associations have yet to be tested with e-cigarettes. Moreover, it is unknown if discrimination-related risk may be mitigated by protective factors such as social support.

Associations of Perceived Stress and Social Support on Health Behavior Changes in Sexual Minoritized Women During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Purpose: We examined how perceived stress and social support were associated with changes in health behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic among sexual minoritized women (SMW).

Methods: In an online convenience sample of SMW ( = 501,  = 23.6), we used multinomial logistic regression models to estimate associations of perceived stress and social support (emotional, material, virtual, in-person) with self-reported changes (increased or decreased vs.
