Anxiety-specific associations with substance use: Evidence of a protective factor in adolescence and a risk factor in adulthood

This project assessed anxiety-specific associations with substance use, examining sex and developmental period (adolescence vs. adulthood) as potential moderators. Associations of anxiety with substance use differed in adolescents and adults and in girls/women and boys/men. Controlling for externalizing psychopathology and depression, anxiety was associated with reduced substance use in adolescent girls and increased substance use in adult women.
