Description

For sample persons ages 18-44 who used marijuana at least once in the past 12 months, MJCUTACTYR reports if, in the past 12 months, the person ever spent less time on activities that used to be important to her/him (e.g., playing sports, hobbies, or other interests), so that she/he could use marijuana.
This variable is part of a series of questions on drug and alcohol use. Sample persons filled this survey supplement out themselves because of the potentially personal nature of the questions included in the supplement. The interviewer was available to provide assistance if requested. The supplement includes detailed questions about cocaine (COKABUSEYR) and marijuana (MJABUSEYR), and general questions about use of hallucinogens, inhalants, heroin, painkillers, sedatives, stimulants, and tranquilizers.
