Monitoring the Future
Teens in disadvantaged neighborhoods are more likely to smoke, but it depends on whether they live in rural or urban areas.
A new #MonitoringtheFuture study from researchers Joy Jang & @meganepatrick.bsky.social highlights a distinct rural-urban gap in adolescent health.

New research from #MonitoringtheFuture @meganepatrick.bsky.social in @ajpmonline.bsky.social shows adult nicotine pouch use increased in the U.S. from 2023-2024. High prevalence among adults who reported current or former smoking & vaping raises questions about the reasons for ⬆️ use.

US teens are sleeping less than at any point in the last 30+ years, according to a study in Pediatrics analyzing #MonitoringtheFuture data from 400,000+ teens btwn 1991-2023. By 2023, only ~22% of 18-19 year olds reported getting at least 7 hours of sleep. @meganepatrick.bsky.social

Young adulthood is a critical period for brain development. New research from #MonitoringtheFuture @meganepatrick.bsky.social explores how substance use patterns established early on may have lasting consequences on memory & cognitive health much later in life. @umisr.bsky.social

The interplay between neighborhood context and adolescent substance use is complext, varying by type of drug, socioeconomics, and whether the neighborhood is more or less urban. Bohyun Jang & @meganepatrick.bsky.social use @mtfstudy.bsky.social to examine complicated relationship myumi.ch/619JM
Young adults who heavily use substances may report significantly poorer memory decades later, a new @umisr.bsky.social study suggests.
“Substance use has both acute and long-term effects on health and well-being,” said research professor Megan Patrick. 🔗: https://myumi.ch/79W2Q

Recent expansion of U.S. nicotine pouch marketing may increase nicotine pouch use. This study estimated U.S. adult pouch use during 2023–2024 overall …
Objective: Simultaneous alcohol and cannabis use (commonly referred to as SAM) represents a significant public health concern for young adults. Romantic partners are a strong source of influence on su...
Objective: We examined associations between neighborhood socioeconomic context and substance use among U.S. adolescents using nationally representative samples. We further tested whether these associations differed by urbanicity. Methods: Data were from 12th graders in 2016–2019 from the Monitoring the Future (MTF) study (n=54,108). Neighborhood socioeconomic context was measured by a disadvantage index in the zipcode of the schools MTF respondents attended, using data on residents’ economic status (income, public assistance, poverty) from the American Community Survey. Outcomes included past 30-day cigarette use, past 2-week binge drinking, and past 30-day cannabis use. Survey-weighted logistic models estimated associations between neighborhood disadvantage and the use of each substance, as well as interactions of the associations by urbanicity (urban, suburban, rural). Results: Neighborhood disadvantage was positively associated with adolescent cigarette use but inversely associated with binge drinking. After controlling for individual-level socioeconomic characteristics, the association between neighborhood disadvantage and adolescent binge drinking became non-significant. The associations of neighborhood disadvantage with cigarette use differed by urbanicity. In rural areas, adolescent cigarette use increased with greater neighborhood disadvantage, which was not observed in urban areas. No significant interaction effects were found for binge drinking and cannabis use. Conclusions: We found a complex interplay between neighborhood socioeconomic context and adolescent substance use, with patterns varying by both urbanicity and substance. This suggests the potential for tailored prevention and intervention efforts for adolescent substance use in particular neighborhood contexts.
