Data are presented as n (%) or mean ± SD. N = 387 subjects; Minority SOGI = 112 subjects; Non-Minority SOGI = 275 subjects. Independent sample t tests were conducted for continuous variables; chi-square tests were conducted for categorical variables. Mann-Whitney U tests were conducted for the consequences of cannabis use variables due to their non-normal distribution.
↵a Recent use represents use during past 4 months.
SOGI = sexual orientation and gender identity.
