Alcohol and cannabis co-use and social context as risk pathways to sexual assault.

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: This study adds to the literature by providing a nuanced and contextual account of how cannabis-alcohol co-use may lead to assault vulnerability in young adult women. Findings underscore the need for intervention efforts that expand their focus to include the broader social context, and the role that the use and co-use behaviors of others may play within this context.
