[i] Note: Point-biserial correlations were used with binary variables. CUDIT = Cannabis Use Disorder Identification Test; Nu = negative urgency; Pu = positive urgency; Lprem = lack of premeditation; Lpers = lack of perseverance; Ss = sensation seeking; k = discount parameter of the Monetary Choice Questionnaire for a medium amount of monetary reward; SDHS = Short Happiness and Depression Scale. Because the k parameters of the Monetary Choice Questionnaire and the total CUDIT score were skewed (skewness > 3 and > 1, respectively), analyses with these variables were performed by using their natural logarithm. The reliability indices as well as correlations between variables 3 to 9 are presented for the whole sample.
