Exploring cannabis consumption stigma in Canada with consideration of age and gender differences
Stigma toward cannabis consumers was greatest for younger consumers (14-years-old), followed by 21 and 28-year-olds. Specifically, older generations (70 + year old's) endorsed more stigma compared to younger generations. There were no main effects on stigma toward cannabis consumers based on the vignette character's gender or research participants' gender identity.
