Experimental Treatment
Group I: Exposure to secondhand cannabis smoke in public placesExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The research staff and participants will travel together to a public location by either ride share vehicles, taxis or public transit. The study will arrange and pay for the transit. Staff and participants will be exposed to ambient air in public places where cannabis products are being consumed by smoking, vaporizing or dabbing. Participants will remain in the company of the laboratory staff throughout the exposure. The exposures will last 0.5-4 hours, depending on the nature and duration of the event. Staff and participants will travel together back to the laboratory for the post-exposure study measures.
