Question

question 4 of 7
which of the following is the sign that shows someone is at risk for cannabis use
disorder?

• they have tried cannabis in the past.
• they have stopped using cannabis recently.
• they need less cannabis to get the same effect.
• they continue to use cannabis despite experiencing problems.

Explanation:

To determine the sign of cannabis use disorder risk, we analyze each option:

• "They have tried cannabis in the past" is not a risk sign as trying it once doesn't indicate disorder.
• "They have stopped using cannabis recently" suggests they might be reducing use, not a risk.
• "They need less cannabis to get the same effect" is the opposite of tolerance (a disorder sign involves needing more, not less).
• "They continue to use cannabis despite experiencing problems" aligns with diagnostic criteria for substance use disorders (continued use despite negative consequences).

Answer:

D. They continue to use cannabis despite experiencing problems.
