= 12) of the final sample reported any form of sexual abuse. As such, an aggregate score of all CTQ-SF questions was used as an index of ELS. As in CATS, this measure was log-transformed to reduce skew (log-transformed: M = 1.49, SD = 0.08; untransformed: M = 31.18, SD = 6.68, where a score of 25 indicates no endorsement of any stressor). These scores are comparable to those obtained in other community (e.g., metropolitan Memphis, Tennessee area, N = 1,007, M = 31.7; Scher et al., 2001) and college samples (e.g., UCSD; N = 949, M = 35.2; Wright et al., 2001). DSM-IV diagnoses of cannabis dependence were available for participants; however, only 1.6% of the sample met diagnostic criteria, so an analysis of cannabis dependence symptomatology was not feasible (Table 3).
