The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), awarded a $730,649 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego, effective May 1, 2026, through February 28, 2031. The project, titled "The Acute Effects of Cannabis Use on Parenting," delivers research services and data collection focused on understanding how cannabis use impacts parenting behavior among regular users with young children. The study employs an ecological, within-person research design to generate empirical evidence on this understudied area, utilizing baseline assessments, 21-day ecological momentary assessment protocols with daily surveys, videotaped parent-child interaction tasks, and behavioral coding using validated assessment instruments. The research deliverables include characterization of how parents approach cannabis use around children aged 3-6 years; measurement of acute effects of cannabis use on parenting behavior through repeated survey and observational data; dose-response analysis incorporating subjective intoxication ratings and product cannabinoid content measures; and identification of potential moderators of cannabis effects on parenting. By recruiting 190 regular cannabis users and conducting masked behavioral coding of parent-child interactions under both cannabis-use and non-use conditions, the project produces rigorous empirical data intended to fill a significant gap in substance use and parenting research, directly supporting NIDA's mission to advance prevention, diagnosis, and treatment knowledge related to drug use and addiction.Federal Grant Award Summary
