Abstract
Background:
Many studies have examined factors associat-ed with the first onset of cannabis use and abuse. Currently, there is relatively little research regarding conditions under
which cannabis dependence is more likely to emerge. Although previous studies have examined different potential determinants of cannabis dependence, to our knowledge, asystematic review is lacking.
Aims:
The study aims to identify recent findings regarding psychosocial determinants of cannabis dependence and to summarize them systematically.
