“…Five related indices of behavioral economic cannabis demand may be obtained from the MPT: intensity (i.e., cannabis consumption at zero cost), O max (i.e., peak expenditure on cannabis), P max (i.e., price corresponding to peak expenditure on cannabis), breakpoint (i.e., the cost at which cannabis consumption is suppressed to zero), and elasticity (i.e., the sensitivity of consumption to cost, or the degree to which consumption of cannabis decreases as price increases; Aston et al, 2015; Collins et al, 2014). These demand indices, and especially O max , intensity, and elasticity, are robustly associated with patterns of cannabis use, including quantity and frequency of use, craving, and symptoms of CUD, in a variety of populations including young adults (Aston & Berey, 2022; Aston et al, 2015; González-Roz et al, 2022; Minhas et al, 2021; Strickland et al, 2017; Zvorsky et al, 2019).…”
