By Tarun Sai LomteFeb 14 2023Reviewed by Danielle Ellis, B.Sc. In a recent study published in Psychiatry Research, researchers examined the associations between cannabis use and sleep disturbances.
About the study The present study evaluated the associations between sleep disturbances and cannabis use. It was a cross-sectional analysis of an observational cohort of French-speaking students from higher educational institutes and universities in France. Information on sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle habits, and health status was obtained at baseline and through follow-up questionnaires.
Findings Related StoriesThe final analytic sample comprised 14,787 participants with an average age of 20.4 years. Most subjects were females ; 39% were first-year students, and 23% were attending health studies. Nearly 14% and 12% of participants had a history of anxiety and depression, respectively. Daily, weekly, and monthly use of cannabis were self-reported by 1.5%, 4.4%, and 20.5% of students, respectively.
