Participants were asked yearly “Have you ever used marijuana?” The possible responses were “yes” or “no.” The earliest age when the participant answered “yes” to this question was used to indicate the age when marijuana use was initiated, varying from age 6 to age 16. Eighty participants had not initiated marijuana by age 18.
