Abstract
Introduction Data suggest there are within-group variations in cannabis consumption among sexually diverse individuals. However, less is known about specific sexual orientations, such as Two-Spirit, asexual, pansexual, and queer (2SAPQ+), when compared with lesbian, gay, and bisexual people, as they often are not given an option to indicate their identities on surveys, leading them to be grouped with bisexuals. This study aimed to compare the relationship between LG and 2SAPBQ+ (including bisexual) identification and routine cannabis use, and whether it was mediated by minority stress.Methods Data were collected across two time points from 851 Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, and questioning (2SLGBTQ+) youth participants. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to analyze whether latent constructs within the minority stress framework mediated the relationship between sexual identity and cannabis use longitudinally.Results A preliminary logistic regression confirmed that 2SAPBQ + individuals were more likely to consume cannabis than LG individuals. The results suggest that the minority stress constructs accounted for a significant portion of the variance within the relationship between sexual orientation and cannabis use.Conclusion The pathway between sexual orientation and routine cannabis use was complex. Findings signal that not all sexual minority individuals should be grouped into one category and call for attention to careful measurement practices.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
